Robyn $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi family! I have experience caring for infants and genuinely enjoy creating a calm, loving, and attentive environment for babies. I am also a student by night, enrolled in child development to learn more about the little ones and how to best care for them! I'm reliable, communicative, and comfortable with pets, and I'm happy to help with light baby-related tidying as needed. I'm CPR/First Aid trained (but would need to renew). I'd love the opportunity to connect and see if I'd be a good fit for your family.

Cepideh $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Cepideh (Cep for short) and I currently work part-time researcher at UC San Francisco, a role I secured after graduating from UC Santa Barbara in 2021. In undergrad, I was an active student involved in the Undergraduate Mentorship Program which mentors and guides first year students through academic and personal situations. One of my first ever jobs was as a swim instructor at the local swim school De Anza Cupertino Aquatics (DACA). I taught children ages 7-11 basic swim strokes and safety during their lessons. I also had the opportunity to work as a camp counselor during my high school career. I led a group of elementary school children through their activities in a weeklong excursion in the Watsonville outdoor school. I find an incredible sense of wonderment when I have the opportunity to work with children. I end up learning more than I anticipated through conversations and activities I engage in with the children. I look forward to continuing to work with children in my local area!

Riley $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Riley, I'm 23, and living in the Nob Hill/Polk Gulch area. I graduated from the University of Denver with a BSBA in marketing last June, but grew up in the East Bay, and have been living in San Francisco for almost three months. Throughout high school, I frequently babysat for a family with three kids (aged 2-12) and a dog, along with a family with two kids (aged 4-7) and cats. I also worked at a summer camp, responsible for around ten 2-6 year-olds at a time for several hours a day. I'm comfortable cooking, cleaning, helping kids with tasks like dressing, and of course, playing! I can help with homework, assuming it's nothing too advanced. I also have a kitten of my own. I would love to meet you and your family and babysit whenever possible. I'm enthusiastic and outgoing, and love spending time with kids! I love to make friendship bracelets, paint, cook, bake, color, and lots of other activities that we could have fun doing together. I'm also happy to take kids out to the park, for a snack, and other outings. I don't have a car, but I'm comfortable doing errands I can walk to. Also happy to help with laundry and other household tasks whenever the kids are busy playing and within eyeshot.

Michaela $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Michaela & I am a 30 year old cis-gendered woman with many years of experience working with children. In my earlier work experience, I worked for YMCA, SF State's Day Care, as well as growing up with a mother as a kindergarten teacher who loved being in the classroom along side her. Currently, I have experience working in healthcare at Kaiser Permanente & UCSF where I gained so much knowledge about mental health, diabetes, hypertension, and more. I worked with mostly adults, which would make me a great caregiver for seniors, as well as have the compassion and empathy needed for any household. I love pets, writing/reading, and being outdoors. I am also currently building my own consulting practice and looking for stable working hours with UrbanSitter. I look forward to connecting soon!
