Winter $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Winter! I'm a recent Sac State graduate with a BA in Deaf Studies and a minor in Childhood Development, and I'm fluent in both English and American Sign Language (ASL). I have experience working with kids, seniors, and pets - most recently as an in-class signing aide supporting Deaf and hard-of-hearing children. I love connecting with the people and animals I work with, and I try to bring patience, flexibility, and genuine care to everything I do. My teaching experience goes back to my time at Sac State, where I worked as an ASL tutor for fellow students. As someone with ADHD myself, I find it very important to work with students' unique learning styles and at their own pace; an approach I bring to any tutoring or homework help I provide now. I'm also CPR/First Aid certified. Services I Offer: School-age child care, tutoring/homework help, pet care, senior care, and house-sitting. Household Services: I offer cleaning, organizing, cooking, running errands, and local driving within Sacramento. I'm happy to bring my own cleaning supplies if requested in advance. Child Care: In addition to homework help, I love doing arts and crafts, and card/board games with kids. Just let me know ahead of time if you'd like me to bring specific activity supplies and I'll do my best to accommodate. Pet Care: I've cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, lizards - you name it! I'm comfortable with large breeds and don't mind shedding. Care includes walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of pets and cuddles. Senior Care: I enjoy providing companionship, playing games together, basic IT support, and assist with various tasks. If I'm missing a service you're looking for, feel free to ask, I'm happy to answer any questions!

Lanique $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lanique and I’m 22 years old and have a natural love for working with kids. I am currently in my last month at the JC! Woohoo! As the oldest of four, I’ve been a built-in babysitter for as long as I can remember, so caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I moved from the Sacramento area and am excited to connect with families in the community. I’m responsible, patient, and know how to keep kids engaged, safe, and having fun. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or sticking to routines, I bring a positive and reliable energy to every family I work with. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones!

Kailan $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Kat, a dependable, caring, and patient caregiver who genuinely enjoys helping families. I’m a nationally certified EMT, so safety is always my top priority, and I’m trained to stay calm and respond confidently in emergencies. I have experience caring for children through paid babysitting as well as before- and after-school programs in both school and home settings. I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to learn and play. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, meal preparation, homework, bedtime routines, and pet care. As a first-time kitten owner and lifelong animal lover, I’m comfortable caring for cats, dogs, and other pets too. Families describe me as reliable, responsible, kind, and easy to communicate with. I treat every child with patience, respect, and compassion, and I always strive to give parents peace of mind knowing their loved ones are in good hands. Whether you need an occasional sitter, a date-night caregiver, or regular help, I’d love the opportunity to support your family!

Mandee $18 per hour for 1 child

I am a mother of 3 boys; my oldest is now 18 years old and my youngest are twin 13 year old boys. To say that I have experience with children would be an extreme understatement. I am trying to return to the general workforce but since I primarily have experience in the medical field with extensive medical experience I was hoping that childcare would be a good entryway. I am very responsible and I come with a unique ability to communicate with children in a manner that they are comfortable with (non-condescending). I am also a returning English Literature student hoping to eventually become a English Literature Professor at the University level.

"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)."
