Booked by 1 family in San Leandro, CA

Hello - my name is Angela, and I recently moved to the Bay from South Texas. I’m an experienced caregiver and educator with a background in youth programming, education, and nonprofit work. I’ve worked with children of all ages as a YMCA lead teacher, Parks and Recreation after-school counselor, culinary center teacher, and tutor over the past 10 years. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to provide pet care and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and breeds. I am an experienced Rover sitter and dog owner and am comfortable taking them on walks or hanging out with them in your home. I’m also available to assist with senior care including meal preparation, errands, light housekeeping, and transportation to appointments. My goal is to create a safe, positive environment where children, pets, and older adults feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. I look forward to getting to know your family!

Wren 2 reviews
$35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Wren I've been caregiving for pets, kiddos, people with social needs, and seniors my whole life! I started petsitting when I was 8 years old, and nannying when I was 11. I worked with seniors with dementia while in school to get my degree in social work, and worked as a full time social worker for years until I realized I prefer a varied schedule and hands on caregiving. I am very artistic and creative and love doing art with kids or special needs adults. I also love organizing and interior design to help make a space work for a persons individual needs. Thank you for considering me!

Wren has done a great job sitting for my two cats. I have one indoor and one outdoor and I always feel at ease leaving them in Wren's care. The cats have grown to love Wren, as well! I definitely recommend Wren as a reliable, thoughtful sitter.

Hi, dear family! My name is Evilyn, I am 25 years old and I am from Brazil. I have experience with childcare for all ages for at least 5 years, but I have much more experience with toddlers and infants since I was an Au Pair and took care of to kids from 0 to 3 years old. I am affectionate, easy going, helpful and energetic. I am certified in First Aid and CPR. Also, I have my California driver's license, so I am available to pick up and drop off children.

Evilyn was very kind and caring with our children. She did very well with the baby. She's able to help out around the house beyond child care as well!

Booked by 8 families in San Leandro, CA

Hello! My name is Jenna, and I’m a student-athlete at Cal State East Bay, where I play softball and study Business. My home town is Elk Grove, in which I go back and forth frequently. I grew up in a large family, helping to look after my younger cousins, nieces, and nephews, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to keep kids engaged and happy. I love being active, and I’m more than willing to run around, play games, and explore creative activities with children of all ages. I have years of experience nannying including working with children with autism, providing patient, supportive care in both structured and play-based settings. I’m also comfortable around pets, so families with animals don’t have to worry. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and fun environment for the kids I care for, while giving parents peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Jenna was wonderful with our daughter for the few days we were in town! We very much appreciated her patience and flexibility, highly recommend!

*full availability starting April 2026* I nannied a little boy from 6 months to entering kindergarten, in addition to watching 3 children ages 4, 10, and 12 for 4 months during their covid pandemic remote schooling, and babysitting experience. I have an energetic and very child-friendly personality. I used to mainly work doing birthday party gigs (princess, clown, face painter, balloon twister, etc.) and I have worked over 300 gigs. I was commended for my energy, stamina, and patience when working.

"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)."
