Marisela $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m Marisela. I have experience as both a nanny and preschool teacher, and caring for children is something I truly enjoy. I’m dependable, patient, and love helping little ones learn, play, and feel supported every day. Whether it’s arts and crafts, outdoor play, reading stories, helping with routines, or simply being a caring and positive presence, I always do my best to create a safe and fun environment. I understand that every family is different, and I enjoy working together to meet each child’s unique needs.

Kylie $25 per hour for 1 child

I'm a friendly, creative, experienced caregiver who adores working with kids. I am back in Sacramento after years as a creative in New York City. I love to bring that creativity and sense of play into my time babysitting and uncovering/engaging with what your kids are excited about. I started working in kid's camps in local Sacramento parks through high school and college. There we really focused on expanding imagination and a sense of play with kids 3-12. In college, I began working as a nanny for a few families in the San Diego area- those kids were between the ages of 2&7. In my 9 years in NYC, I also worked as a nanny for a family with children from the time their oldest was 18 months to when he was 9 years old and they moved. I was fortunate enough to be with that family through the birth of their second and third children. I gained experience with newborn and infant care, and the joys/challenges of bed time for three little ones. I'm comfortable with covering dinner/bath/and bedtime as well as running kids all over town for their myriad of activities. I also can make any lazy Saturday into a backyard adventure. I'd love to hang with your kiddos!

Booked by 6 families in Rio Linda, CA

Hi!! My name is Shontece 😊 I’m a college student majoring in Communications with several years of childcare experience through babysitting, working in an after school program and currently being a summer camp counselor. Working with kids is something I genuinely enjoy and I love creating a safe, fun, loving and supportive environment where children feel comfortable, happy, and cared for! I’m very patient, reliable, trustworthy and energetic. I always try to make life easier for parents however I can. I love building genuine connections with children while also helping families keep routines smooth and stress free. I have experience with infants, toddlers and school aged kids, and I’m comfortable caring for multiple children at once. I enjoy keeping kids engaged with crafts, games, educational activities, outdoor play, movies, bedtime routines, homework help and fun creative activities that match their personalities and interests. I also don’t mind helping with light housekeeping such as dishes, laundry, tidying up, organizing, meal/snack prep, errands or pet care if needed. I’m a huge dog lover as well, so furry family members are always a bonus for me 🥰🥰 Communication is very important to me, so I always keep parents updated and make sure their expectations are met. Families often describe me as kind, dependable, nurturing, and easy to communicate with. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and always prioritize safety while still making sure kids have fun and feel supported. I would love the opportunity to become someone your family can truly rely on long term 😊

“Shontece was wonderful! Very communicative in advance and did an amazing job overseeing 5-10 kids at a time for arts and crafts at a big summer party. Will gladly hire her again for babysitting or larger group events. ”

Thamara $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a full-time college student, so I will need flexible hours. While I am new to babysitting and nannying, I genuinely enjoy being around kids; they are interesting and fun to talk to. My experience thus far mainly comes from babysitting my little cousins, but I would like to expand my babysitting experience. Additionally, I have experience with dog-sitting, having taken care of my neighbor's four dogs and their cat. I love little furry animals!

Booked by 1 family in Rio Linda, CA

Hello everyone, my name is yensi, I'm 34 yesrs old, I have experience with children of all ages, since I was 14 years old, I had to care of my siblings and nephews. I ran a home daycare for 4 years, but the business was struggling, so I had to close, and the main reason that I look for a job as a caregiver is because I love what I do, give them love and affection. I have good references, and also have CPR training. First Aid Certificated.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
