Angelique $28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in San Lorenzo, CA

Hi! My name is Angie, and I’m 29 years old and based in Oakland.💗 I’m currently looking for babysitting and nannying opportunities throughout the East Bay. I have childcare experience from helping care for my younger siblings from the newborn stage as they grew up, along with a few babysitting jobs here and there. I’m patient, caring, dependable, and attentive, and I really enjoy creating a safe and comfortable environment for children. I’m also a pet caregiver through Rover 🐾 , so I’m very comfortable with dogs, cats, and other pets in the home. I’m currently pretty flexible with my availability and open to occasional babysitting, date nights, on call care, or a more consistent schedule. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and see if I’d be a good fit!💕

Kari $26 per hour for 1 child

I have 28 years of hands-on caregiving experience, having raised two children who are now ages 28 and 21. I understand the importance of providing a safe, nurturing, and attentive environment for school-aged children. While my children were in grades 1–5, I supervised elementary school children to and from school five days a week. I am also a proud grandmother to three grandchildren—one age seven and twins age six—which has further strengthened my patience, responsibility, and ability to care for children of different ages.

Shainese $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Shai, I am a full time nursing student currently in my last term, working toward a career in pediatrics. I have a strong passion for caring for children and creating a safe, supportive, and engaging environment for them. I have hands-on experience caring for kids in different ages. I have 3 younger siblings, 2 of them being 8 years old who I helped raise, so I’m very comfortable managing routines, multiple children, and different personalities. In addition, through my nursing clinical experience, I’ve cared for ill children ranging from infants to teenagers. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive, and I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident leaving their children in good hands. I can assist with homework, prepare simple meals, and keeping kids active and engaged in a safe way. I have a BLS certification and able to perform CPR when needed. I also have my own transportation and a flexible schedule outside of my school hours.

Hi families! I’m Tshego — a former au pair and experienced nanny with 3+ years caring for infants, toddlers, and school‑age kids. I’m based in Fremont and available to start immediately. I’m known for being calm, structured, and very reliable. I follow routines well, communicate clearly with parents, and create a warm, safe environment for children. I’m confident with diapers, bottles, naps, homework help, school pickups, and light household tasks. I have a valid driver’s license, strong references from my host family and previous employers, and I’m comfortable managing busy schedules or multiple children. If you’re looking for someone dependable, patient, and easy to work with, I’d love to chat. Happy to do a video call anytime.

"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)."
