Lena $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Lena! I was born and raised in San Francisco and am now a sophomore at UC Berkeley studying Political Economy and Global Studies with a minor in Business. I'm a certified Inferno Hot Pilates instructor at a studio here in Berkeley, so I'm used to leading a room, keeping the energy up, and making sure everyone stays safe, and I bring that same energy to babysitting. I love getting kids moving, whether that's a walk to the park, a dance party in the living room, or time outside. I'm very comfortable in the kitchen, so I'm happy to make a healthy snack or dinner and turn cooking into a fun activity. I'm also a member of Alpha Phi at Berkeley. Being part of such a close-knit community has taught me how much strong, caring relationships matter. Parents can count on me to be punctual, responsible, in close communication, and to stick to your family's routines. I'd love to meet your family and can't wait to hear from you!

Bella $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have a lot of babysitting experience, paid and unpaid, from babysitting younger siblings and cousins to neighbors and family friends. I used to tutor kids at the Mathnasium and can defintely help with homework. I’ve also been a court appointed special advocate for a foster child, so kids with challenges do not scare me. I’ve also house-sat and taken care of all types of pets (friendly pets, haha). I graduated from UC Berkeley 2 years ago and am now working as a legal assistant and saving up while I apply to law school. I think that about covers it, but let me know if you have any more questions (:

Bridget $32 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m new to Urban sitter but have been active on Care.com the past 6 + years! I have lots of positive reviews and referrals on my care account id love to send if you are interested! I wanted to use this site to offer my occasional and date night nanny services. My name is Bridget and I’m a 26 year old flight attendant! I worked at a day care before I started flying 7 years ago and while flying I have worked for many families occasionally babysitting. I did take a little over a year off flying where I left my last airline in Arizona (where I’m born and raised) to move to the Bay Area where my Dad and other family are at. I started nannying in Marin where I got introduced to a family needing more of a family manager role. The kids were 10, 13, and 16. I gained a lot of experience doing that for about a year and a half then got hired at southwest as a flight attendant. I don’t have a very constant free schedule but I do have flexibility and time off where I have been occasionally nannying. I’d love to help your family out with occasional childcare and date nights! Feel free to reach out and I’ll let you know my availability.

Booked by 1 family in Berkeley, CA

Hi! I’m Claudia, a caring and dependable childcare professional with 10+ years of experience working with children and families. I have a BA in Psychology and a background in education, teaching, literacy intervention, behavioral support, and long term nannying. I’ve worked with children from newborns through their teenage years and have experience with homework, reading, school routines, activities, transportation, and everyday care. I’ve also worked as a family assistant, helping with the day to day needs of busy families. I’m organized, patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy working with children. I love creating a balance of structure and fun through reading, games, outdoor activities, crafts, and learning. I especially enjoy getting to know each child’s personality and finding activities they are excited about. I also speak English and Spanish fluently and have knowledge of Portuguese. I’m currently looking for occasional and weekend childcare opportunities and would love to be a dependable extra set of hands for your family!
