Booked by 2 families in Sausalito, CA

My name is Helen, and I am interested in the part time nanny or babysitter position with your family. I am Chinese and have been living in San Francisco for 24 years. I speak four languages: English, Cantonese, Mandarin, and Toishanese. Currently, I work as a preschool teacher and have over 18 years of experience working with young children, including infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. My own child is now grown up, but I still love spending time with children. I would like to use my free time to help families who need childcare. Working with children makes me feel happy and valued. Here are some things about me that I think you might find helpful: 1. Experience with Children: As a preschool teacher in San Francisco, I excel at following children’s interests, creating art projects, connecting them to nature, and developing loose part activities. 2. Safety First: I always make sure children are safe and well-cared for. I am fully vaccinated, recently had a great annual physical exam, and hold a CPR certificate. 3. Fun Activities: I enjoy doing crafts, reading stories, and playing games with children to keep them engaged and happy. 4. Reliable and Trustworthy: You can count on me to be on time and dependable. I am excited about the chance to support your family and help your child. I am happy to discuss your needs and how I can help. I look forward to meeting you and your family.

Helen was a big part of the success of our daughter's wedding. She staffed the child care room so parents could bring their children when they or the children needed a break. Multiple parents told me they would have left much earlier if Helen had not been there. That would have been unfortunate as the kids ruled the dance floor. If we had other child care needs in San Francisco Helen would be our first choice.

Booked by 3 families in Sausalito, CA

Hi! My name is Molly and I'm looking for childcare opportunities this summer! I have a very flexible schedule during the summer months until school starts up again. During the school year, I work as a garden teacher at an elementary school. I have worked in youth programming in both educational and informal settings, and I love inspiring children to connect with nature and their surroundings. I love animals and am happy to work with families with pets. If this sounds like it could be a fit for your family, let me know! :)

We’ve hired Molly as an extra kids helper for our church’s gatherings multiple times, so we’ve had the opportunity to watch her first-hand with our kids. Molly is on-time, kind, and responsive. She engages with kids in a naturally warm and helpful way, and communicates well with parents and volunteers, too. We'll definitely hire Molly again!

Booked by 5 families in Sausalito, CA

Hi there! My name is Ash, and I offer child care, pet care, and household support services. I’ve been babysitting for over 10 years and have experience with children of all ages from newborns and infants to toddlers (including twins!) and older kids. During college, I provided consistent and reliable care for two wonderful families, one for over 3.5 years and another for 2.5 years. My responsibilities included school and activity drop-offs, meal prep, laundry, reading, bathing, arts and crafts, and creating fun daily routines. I also have experience providing extended overnight care for 24-72 hours while parents were away for work or travel. In addition to child care, I have worked as a household assistant, helping with meal preparation, grocery shopping, errands, and household organization. I take pride in being dependable, kind, reliable and attentive. I love creating a safe and positive environment where kids can have fun, learn, and feel cared for. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Ash is the best!

Booked by 1 family in Sausalito, CA

Hi, my name is Phoebe! I’m a San Francisco native and currently a college student in San Diego, where I’m majoring in Quantitative Economics. I have a valid driver’s license, know my way around public transportation, and am responsible, reliable, and easygoing. I’m looking for part-time babysitting, house sitting, and pet sitting jobs. I have experience babysitting for families in my neighborhood, caring for my younger niece and nephew, and tutoring elementary school students throughout high school. I’m happy to help with date nights, after-school or camp pickups, regular weekly care, or coverage while your usual sitter is away. I also have plenty of pet-sitting experience and especially love cats (I have two at home)! I’m also happy to help with dogs, whether that means feeding, walks, or keeping them company. I’m dependable, communicative, and always do my best to make sure kids and pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like a reference. Thank you for considering me!

Hi, Phoebe watched my niece and nephew while my sister was in town so the adults could go out. She was great, friendly, prompt, calm. When we came back house was tidy and the kids were cozy and happy watching a movie. Thank you Phoebe!

"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)."
