Sheila $23 per hour for 1 child

My name is Sheila ! I am originally from San Francisco California, but currently a senior at San Diego State. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I worked at my school’s child center for both semesters last year. I was placed in an infant classroom where I worked with 10-18 month olds. I have my CPR certification as well. I am willing to do small house chores/ extra home activities but pay is negotiable on that aspect depending on what you’d like me to do.

Booked by 1 family in El Cajon, CA

Hi, my name is Madeline! I love working with and caring for children and am excited to meet your family. I have experience babysitting children from a couple months old through elementary school-age. I am a speech-language pathologist and work in both an elementary school and in early intervention with children ages 15 months-3 years old. I am CPR certified, I am comfortable around cats and dogs, and I have reliable transportation.

Madeline did a wonderful job taking care of my 9 month old son. They had fun reading books, singing songs, and dancing together. I appreciated her good communication and quick replies. She also has helpful insight on speech questions, given her speech pathologist expertise. I will definitely be booking her again!

Sienna $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in El Cajon, CA

Hi families! I’m Sienna, and I grew up in San Francisco and am a 2nd year at San Diego State University. I've been caring for kids and pets for about six years now. I started out babysitting my neighbors’ little ones when they were tiny toddlers—now the boy is 8 and the girl is 4, and watching them grow has honestly been the sweetest part of the job. I’m patient, playful, and creative, and I always make sure kids feel safe, happy, and supported—whether we’re powering through homework, building forts, or just hanging out and being silly. I also have plenty of experience cat sitting and dog sitting. ’m dependable, respectful, and super easy to get along with, and I take pride in being someone families can count on. I’m brand new to UrbanSitter, which is why you won’t see reviews on my profile yet—but I do have references who can vouch for me. Feel free to ask, and I’ll gladly share their phone numbers! Caring for kids and pets never feels like “work” to me—it’s something I genuinely enjoy, and I’d love the chance to bring that energy to your family.

Cauanny $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone! My name is Cauanny and I just recently got accepted to UCSD to finish my studies in clinical psychology! As a previous after-school kindergarten teacher, I grew my experience with children as little as Pre-K to 6th grade, and also with different behaviors and spectrum placements. I was the lead kindergarten teacher who ran my own classroom as well as created the curriculum taught M-F. I genuinely love to work with children and strongly believe that teaching a child with love and patience is the ultimate key to seeing growth. I come with several references, and have spent lots of time babysitting, volunteering working in school environments, having experience with the elderly as well as having my own two younger siblings whom I helped raise. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me! I look forward to potentially working together and being part of the day to day of your family :)
