Hello, my name is Luz! :) I graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with a major in Psychology, a minor in Early Development and Learning Science, and a Certificate in Business. My experience working with children began in 2014 when I started as a Teacher’s Aide at the YMCA. In 2016, I joined UrbanSitter and had the joy of babysitting for more than 50 wonderful families throughout the Bay Area while also holding various part-time childcare positions through the end of 2020. At the beginning of 2021, I earned my Behavior Technician certification and worked at Cortica as a Behavior Interventionist with children with Autism and other neurodevelopmental differences — an incredibly rewarding experience. During my time at UC Berkeley, I also worked as a Research Assistant in a developmental psychology lab, which deepened my love for understanding how children learn and grow. I’m licensed, and have a safe, reliable car. I speak English and Spanish fluently and am known for being patient, responsible, and genuinely caring. I love engaging with kids - whether that means creative play, outdoor activities, or helping with learning. In my spare time, I enjoy listening to psychology podcasts, personal finance audiobooks, and spending time outdoors hiking nearby trails. While away from UrbanSitter for a bit now, I’ve kept babysitting my younger sister (8 y.o now) and created a wedding planning business. I truly loved connecting with families and caring for their little ones - it was always such a rewarding part of my life and I can’t wait to feel that again! POLICIES Payment: Because I plan my time and budget around booked hours, I ask to be paid for the full booking, even if plans change or you return earlier than expected. Late Returns: I’m usually flexible with end times, but please text or call if you’ll be running late. I sometimes book jobs back-to-back, and communication helps me stay on schedule. Looking forward to meeting you & your little one(s)!

Hi, My name is Francielly I’m 32 years old, from Brazil. I have been living in the Bay Area since December 2015. I came as an au pair and worked with the same family for two and a half years (and still babysit for them sometimes) The kids were 14months old girl and newborn twin boys when I started. After that in August 2018 I started working with a 8 months old baby as a nanny live out and I have been with them since. After a year we welcomed another baby. I worked for this family for 4 and a half years. Since 2022 I have been working with a family full time. The baby was 2.5 months when I started. I’m flexible and I love to be around kids, specially babies, for me is really compensated to see the babies growing up and learning new things, be able to teach and see them developing its amazing rewarding. I have been babysitting and working with a lot of families and have plenty of experience with infants and toddlers, also I have a few experiences with other kids ages. I’m CPR certified and have all my vaccinations updated. I’m also TrustLine registered. I’m looking for a full time position for September 2024. Thank you Fran

Hi, my name is Joyce, and I'm a dog mom and cat mom. I'm also a daughter of an aging parent, sister, and aunt. I provide babysitting (including for infants and toddlers), nanny, mother's helper, household assistant, senior care, pet care, house sitting, and household services. I've taken care of my niece and nephew from when they were born and throughout their childhoods. I also have experience with infants, toddlers, as well as middle school and high school. I grew up in the same area as my grandparents, and also worked at the senior center in my hometown growing up, so I'm very used to being around seniors. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. (I also love board games and hearing people's stories!) I've been in sales and customer-facing roles most of my life, and I love to make people feel at home and comfortable. I'm an empath, so very attuned to people's emotions. I also love conversation and talking about a wide range of topics. As it relates to pet care: I have a cat and a dog currently, and have also had fish, leopard geckos, and hermit crabs as pets, and volunteered in a Biology Lab with many animals, both mammals and reptiles. As it relates to house sitting: I'm experienced in house sitting, including watching pets while house sitting. I can water your plants, take out the trash weekly, and make sure anything else you need is taken care of. If you'd like help cleaning while you're away, I can do that as well. As it relates to household services: I'm experienced in coordinating repairs and vendors, cleaning, cooking, grocery shopping, organization, cleaning, managing vendors, and planning. I can also do personal assistant projects as well.
