Hello, my name is Madison. I'm originally from the state of Michigan and moved to San Francisco for work after graduating from The University of Michigan where I majored in psychology with a focus in child and adolescent development. Im currently pursuing my doctoral in clinical psychology in the Bay Area. Im looking to be your go to babysitter for occasional events. I have 8 years of paid child care experience, working with children from newborns to middle schoolers! I am a very active individual and love to spend time outside especially when caring for children. I also enjoy reading, playing games or doing arts and crafts, really any active that sparks children's imagination! I love to cook/bake and (if age appropriate) to involve children in those activities as well. I am willing to help out with light house keeping, meal preparation and pick up/drop off. I also have experience with pet care, tending to both dogs and cats. Thank you for considering me for your child or pet care needs :)
Hello! I’m Marisol. I’ve helped raise my two younger siblings and have worked at a church for the past year, caring for multiple children at a time, ranging in age from 6 months to 12 years, including many children on the spectrum. I’ve also volunteered at the Oakland Zoo’s summer camp where I helped supervise groups of 20+ children during tours and lessons. I’m also bilingual (English and Spanish)! I’m an avid sports fan and athlete, participating in both boxing and flag football. I truly enjoy working with children and can guarantee that I will always do my very best to care for your child. I’m very hands-on and love engaging with kids, whether it’s sitting on the ground for tummy time or running around playing tag. I would love to learn more about your child’s unique personality and specific needs so I can support them in the best way possible. Feel free to ask any questions!!
“Marisol was great! She was very punctual and actually got here a few mins early both times. She was sweet, caring and engaging with our son, and our son absolutely loved her!”
Hi there! My name is Adriana, and I have 4 years of hands-on experience working with children aged 3 to 15. I bring a wealth of practical knowledge and a deep passion for nurturing young minds. My commitment to providing a safe and enriching environment extends beyond childcare—I also care for pets and am proficient in light housework, ensuring that families return to a tidy and organized home. Currently pursuing a degree in Sociology, I’m fascinated by the dynamics of human interaction, which enhances my understanding of child development and behavior. With CPR/First Aid certification and a spotless driving record, safety is always my top priority.
“This was my first time booking through Urban Sitter, let alone having someone that was not family watch my child. Adriana arrived on time and got acclimated quickly with my daughter. They played games and by the time I returned home it was lights out. Overall a great experience and I foresee myself rebooking with Adriana again. ”
Hello, I'm Olivia! I work in healthcare and love working with families. I'm reliable and I have firm boundaries. I'm curious and one hundred percent engaged. Happy to help with homework, run errands, cook, do chores and of course spend time with your kids. I want to support in any way that I can because being a parent is hard. I'm available after 5pm on weekdays. I like some flexibility on weekends will room for accommodation.
Hi, I'm Hannah! I've been babysitting for 12 years and adore children. I spent a year and a half as the daycare manager at Fun Fit Kids, where I was responsible for up to eight children at a time. I planned fun activities to keep everyone busy and happy, and I made sure homework and other responsibilities got done first. I also spent four months running the kids' area at Beets Barre and Cycle, with the same mix of play, structure and supervision. Watching that many kids at once taught me to stay patient and calm under pressure, whether it's a spilled snack, a meltdown or a sibling squabble. I'm kind, responsible and very organized, and I truly love people, kids especially. I love to cook, so I'm happy to make dinner or help little ones whip up a simple snack. I also like cleaning, so I'll always leave your home as tidy as I found it, or tidier. I'm great with pets too, so your furry family members are in good hands. During the week I work full-time as an analyst, so I'm available evenings and weekends. You can count on me to be reliable and on time, and your kids can count on a fun, caring sitter who gets homework done before game time!
“I cannot recommend Hannah enough, my little one still asks for her all the time! She was absolutely amazing with my daughter, and I always felt so comfortable knowing she was in such good hands. She was caring, patient, attentive, and truly wonderful with her. It was clear how much she genuinely cared about my daughter, and that meant the world to me as a mom. Finding someone you can trust with your child is so important, and she made that experience easy. She always came up with unique ideas for play and had the coolest imagination. Any family would be lucky to have Hannah as their nanny, and I would recommend her without hesitation!”
