Yasmin $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Yasmin, and I truly enjoy spending time with children and getting to know each child’s unique personality. I’m a caring, patient, and responsible babysitter with nearly four years of experience, and I always strive to create a safe, fun, and comfortable environment where children can feel happy and cared for. I’m happy to help with playtime, meals, homework, bedtime routines, and keeping children engaged with age-appropriate activities. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident when leaving their children with someone, so I always prioritize communication, safety, and making sure your little ones are well cared for. I’d love the opportunity to meet your family and help make your time away a little easier!

Hi! My name is Amanda, and I was born and raised in San Francisco, California. I have 3 years of experience babysitting children and truly enjoy helping them learn, grow, feel loved and supported.

April $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m April! I am a mom to a beautiful 3 year old. Our babies are precious and sacred, if entrusted to my care, I promise to take care of them as I would my own baby! I enjoy taking care of babies/children. I have taken care of infants as a babysitter also from ages 5-10. I have also been a TA in a summer program to children from ages 6-13. I like to do makeup, play music, spend time with family and exercise in my very limited free time! I am BLS certified and have a genuine care for other human beings. For this reason I am completing pre reqs for nursing (currently doing child development course which is so insightful!) im hoping to go into pediatric nursing later on. I’m also fluent in Spanish. I’ll be thrilled and happy to hear back !

Makena $40 per hour for 1 child

Hi , my names Makena and I am student who graduated from SFSU in December 2024. I am looking for a family whose availability and values match mine who I can work with during the summer! I'm reliable, fun, and great with kids. For many years now I have worked with and around kids of all ages (infant-12). Some useful things to know about me: I have previously taught pre-k for two years , I have about 9 years experience and have provided childcare for five families through care. com (I have worked with most of them for a year+), I am up to date on immunizations, CPR trained/ first aid (i am willing to recertify my certificates as they have expired recently) , have a bachelors degree in early childhood education, along side my child development certificate. My passion for nannying stems from the great relationships I have built with past families and from my love of teaching. This role to me is more than just child care and I am confident in the high quality care I can provide! I do offer weekend care if informed 2 weeks in advance :) You can also check out a review on care.com should you feel inclined!

Stephany $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Stephany and i'm currently majoring in psychology at CCSF! I'm offering childcare services for any ages. I love kids and have experience working with a big group of kids. I've worked at the boys and girls club of america for a couple of years. I've had to lead lessons of art, tech, and sports to a group of 30, 5-15 year olds. I've also grown up taking care of kids within my own family. I'm also capable of helping with homework and any responsibilities around the house such as cleaning, aiding in chores, cooking, and running errands. I'm also a huge animal lover and extremely comfortable with pets. I also have experience taking care of animals. I have my own at home, but have done some pet sitting for neighbors, friends, etc. I have no issue with big pets or the smallest of pets. I would be able to feed them, walk them, play. As well, I do have experience in getting rid of lice if that's ever an issue lol, I've worked at a lice clinic and was trained to remove lice efficiently and effectively

"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)."
