Booked by 1 family in San Leandro, CA

Hi my name is Sydney and I am currently finishing my program to become an SLPA, which now requires most of my day to be spent completing my clinical hours. I am looking for opportunities, mostly in the morning, to supplement those unpaid internship hours. As for my experience, I worked at an elementary school as a literacy teacher for the past three years giving me lots of experience working with children ages 5-11. On the weekend I coach soccer for kids ages 2-7 and have currently been working with a family in the evenings for the past two years (ages 5 & 3). Additionally, I have experience looking after pets, specifically cats and dogs and supporting families with other household tasks. I enjoy getting to engage in creative, active and educational activities with kids while learning how to best support their growth.

Ana 4 reviews
$40 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm Ana, but I usually go by my middle name Lupe. I have been working in early childhood education for 26 years. I truly believe that children learn best through play and getting exposed to materials that help them develop their abilities. When kids are under my care. I like to engage with them through conversations, books, english and Spanish songs, basically, to me it's important they have a meaningful and quality time. Also, in my free time I like to spend time with my dog Simba!

“Lupe was a preschool teacher for both of our daughters, from ages 2–5, and we truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her. Our daughters are older now, but they still remember Lupe so fondly which is a testament to the lasting impact she had on them, even at such a young age. As parents, we adore Lupe and will always be grateful for the love and care she gave our children. She has such genuine warmth and respect for children. She takes the time to engage with them around their interests, guides them thoughtfully when boundaries are needed, and approaches conflicts in a calm, compassionate, and restorative way. Lupe is warm, kind, dependable, and communicative, and she is so deeply loved by the children and families who know her. We trusted her completely with our daughters and feel incredibly fortunate that she was such an important part of their early years. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.”

Isiah $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Isiah — a firefighter/EMT in San Francisco and someone who genuinely loves working with kids. I’m active, social, and full of positive energy, and I bring that same attitude to childcare. I’ve spent years helping families with everything from after-school care to weekend babysitting, including experience with kids on the spectrum. I’m big on creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment — whether that’s playing outside, building Legos, going to the park, doing crafts, or making up silly games that keep everyone smiling. As a firefighter, I’m also very active, love going on little adventures, and enjoy keeping kids engaged with movement, imagination, and conversation. I’d love the chance to support your family, bring good energy into your home, and make your child’s day brighter!

Hi! My name is Celeste and i’m college student and a part time employee at sephora and am looking to extend my work services in childcare. I love reading, walking my dog, playing piano, and spending time with my family. I have worked as a summer camp counselor for the last 4 years (2 years as a volunteer and 2 as an employee) and I have really grown to like it. I also have three little sisters (ages ranging from 13-18) that I have helped care for since their births.

"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)."
