Hello! My name is Teresa, I am 26 years old and I just graduated cosmetology school. I am looking to make some money on the side to pay off loans and have extra funding until I find a stable job! I have about 6 years of childcare experience with ages ranging from (4 months- 12 years). I enjoy spending time with kids and believe strongly in creating a safe, fun, engaging and nurturing environment that fosters a child’s development and happiness. From reading books to playing games, assisting with feeding, and or bedtime routines. I am dedicated to excellent care for your child’s needs! I am a responsible, flexible and reliable babysitter who can adapt to your family’s needs and preferences. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you!

Arrived a few minutes early, very professional and kept baby engaged during the day. Would recommend!

Hey there! I’m Dani. I have experience taking care of children of all ages, which has made me know different stages of their development. During a volunteering at a school, I helped children with their academic activities and organizing sports activities, there I learned to combine education with play. Also, as part of my university internship, I worked with children in vulnerable situations, which made me see the importance of creating a safe and enriching environment for them. I love sports, physical activity and crafts, and there is nothing more fun than sharing these activities with children, helping them develop motor skills, creativity and self-confidence. I will be happy to share this time adapted to the needs and personalities of each child. For this reason, I appreciate that as parents you guide me and we have good communication to know the limits and rules you have with them. I hope to meet you soon!

My name Is Gabrielle! I'm a 30 year old social worker looking for child care opportunities. I work in the U-District with unhoused youth supporting with life skills, mental health and housing. I studied at SF State and obtained a BA in Psychology. In my free time I enjoy roller skating, working with local dog rescues, and reading.

Gabba was super engaging with our daughter Isla and they had a great time!

Hello! My name is Grace and I'm a nanny with 7 years of experience who's worked with kids from newborn to 7-8 years old. I strive to create a safe, patient, and engaging environment for your children through age appropriate activities that encourage growth. I've taken several child development and child psychology courses so I'm well versed on how to support their emotional needs as well. I'm a non-smoker, pet-friendly, and willing to take on light housekeeping and meal preparation. I am certified in CPR/First Aid/AED for Infants, Children, and Adults. I have a brand new car with a valid driver's license and a clean driving record so you can rest assured that I can be reliable and ready any adventure!

Grace was great. She was early. She played with the kids well, and they said they liked her.

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
