Sasha $10 per hour for 1 child

Hi again!! My name is Sasha and I’m 18 and a senior in high school. I have over two years of babysitting experience and also work part-time at a local daycare. I have cared for children ranging from 2 months to 5 years old and am available for both daytime and evening babysitting—whether you need a night out or a few hours to get things done. I’m CPR and First Aid certified to help ensure your little ones are safe and cared for. I love creating special bonds with the kiddos I take care of and witnessing their imagination is one of my favorite parts. I just recently got my license and I am able to drive during the day! I love taking little ones on fun adventures around the city, including local parks and libraries. My rate is $20 per hour, plus $5 for each additional child. I’m located in Noe Valley and would love the chance to get to know your family! I’m also happy to provide references upon request. Best, Sasha

Grace $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Grace. I'm a dedicated caregiver based in San Francisco with a passion for working with children. I love babysitting and have been caring for kids of all ages since I was young. Growing up, I helped raise my four younger siblings — handling everything from meals and bedtime routines to homework and keeping the peace! I've also babysat regularly for families in my community, so I'm experienced with a variety of ages and personalities. I'm patient, nurturing, and calm under pressure. Kids feel comfortable with me quickly, and parents can trust that I'm reliable and communicative. Happy to work with dogs and cats!

Maribel $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I moved to San Francisco four years ago from North Carolina and graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science. My career naturally evolved into science education with elementary-aged children, and I now nanny full-time. With six years of childcare experience working with newborns through six-year-olds, I love providing hands-on care and learning opportunities. I follow children’s natural curiosities while staying closely attuned to their cues around feeding, rest, and play, creating a supportive and engaging environment where they can thrive.

Mariel $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello!! My name is Mariel and I am pursuing a degree in Marketing. I am offering my services as a nanny. I have been a nanny for over 8 years and it has taught me so much in so many aspects. I have taken care of kids between the ages of 8 months old to 11 years old. I really enjoy spending time outdoors and doing different activities with kids. My responsibilities have been different with different families, depending on the age of the child, but my basics have been doing the kids’ laundry, cleaning the kids’ dishes, and putting them in the dishwasher. I have driven/walked to kids’ activities, and so much more. Something that I have heard from the families is that they perceive me as a bubbly person. If you want to know more about my experience and me, don’t hesitate to reach out!! Hope to connect with you soon. Ps: I can give good references.

"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)."
