Booked by 4 families in San Anselmo, CA

I’m 22 years old and a mom of two, with 6+ years of experience caring for kids of all ages. I’m CPR certified, reliable, and have strong communication skills. I love having fun with kids—whether it’s crafts, teaching new things, playing outside, or going on hikes. I’m patient, responsible, and always focused on creating a safe, positive environment for every child.

Samantha is a natural caregiver. Her warmth and friendliness made it so much easier for me to leave the kids, something I usually struggle with as a mom. She immediately put everyone at ease, and when I came home, the kids were smiling and happy. As an added bonus, she had cleaned up, swept the floor, and washed the dishes in the sink. We felt truly cared for, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm Anahid. I have always felt like I am part of each family I've worked for; now I always aim for the same type of fulfilling relationship with my new families. I enjoy organizing play dates, reading books to children, doing art projects with the little ones and going on nature walks to develop their sense of curiosity. With 6 years of experience, my skills also include meal prep, light housekeeping, but most importantly, creating a safe and supervised environment for your child. I speak English and Spanish, and have a squeaky clean driving record. I'd describe my personality as friendly and kind. In my free time I like to go hiking and read books. I am hard-working, responsible and reliable. Thank you for looking at my profile and considering me for your nanny and babysitting needs.

Anahid is a wonderful sitter. She connected very quickly with my girls (1.5 and 4). She's now working for us as a regular sitter. She's reliable, on time, and thinks about other things that are needed in the house (loading dishwasher, tidying the girls' rooms). Really a kind and wonderful person, and I highly recommend her!

Hi! I am currently a student at SRJC, working on getting my associates in child development. My babysitting journey began when I was 15, and I've been caring for my younger sister since she was born. She's now 11, and I still spend a lot of my free time with her. -I have my CNA certificate, and am CPR & BSL certified. - If needed, I am willing to provide references. I have experience with children of all ages, from babies and toddlers to older kids. Some of my responsibilities have included: -Driving children to/from the park or sports practices -Engaging in crafts and playing games with the children -Homework Help -Dog sitting -Organizing What I love most about babysitting is the connections I build with the kids and their families. & the fact that I get to meet their pets, I love cats & dogs! I have been fortunate to work with amazing clients, and these relationships have been incredibly rewarding. I look forward to meeting and working with your family!

We love Cass! She took care of our two boys (5 and 1.5) all summer, and she is now our go-to nanny. She’s so easy to work with, very open to feedback/collaboration, a great communicator, and loves our boys, which is the best! I also really appreciate the way she helps to clean up after the kids and isn’t shy about getting out the vacuum!

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."
