Booked by 19 families in Newark, CA

Hi families! My name is Amber, and I’m a nurturing and energetic caregiver with a strong background in both childcare and healthcare. I’m currently a nursing student at the University of San Francisco, where I’m deepening my knowledge of child development, safety, and wellness—skills I bring into every babysitting experience. With over 6 years of experience in customer-facing roles and a background supervising children ages 5 months to 6 years old at The Bar Method, I’ve developed the ability to stay calm under pressure, adapt quickly, and create fun, engaging, and safe environments for kids of all ages. What sets me apart: CPR/First Aid knowledge through my nursing education (and working toward official certification) Experience with Autism, ADHD, and Dementia A warm, friendly, and creative personality Experience tutoring peers, which translates into helping with homework or schoolwork at home A reliable, organized, and equity-driven mindset: I value every child’s uniqueness and treat them with respect and kindness. Whether you’re looking for a dependable sitter for your child, a responsible helper for school-age children, or someone to step in last-minute with patience and care, I’d love to support your family’s needs when I’m not busy with school. Additionally, I offer household cleaning and pet services! Because of my school schedule, I’m looking for occasional care! Looking forward to connecting!

Amber was very kind and patient with my 3 year old daughter. She was actively engaged in playing and even brought some of her own things for them to do together.

Hello my name is Angela but I go by Angie. I am 25 years old attending my last year at San Francisco State University. My major is Sociology. I have an AA in human development and childhood development. I would love to work with kids once I get my degree. As for now I am willing to baby sit and care of children any ages. I am very respectful, caring, considerate and very aware of my actions, words and thoughts. I totally enjoy working and playing with kids due to their fun persona. My experience began through family and taking care of children through all ages. Then I joined Urban Sitter in 2020 and decided to open up to all opportunities available. I will be so grateful to gain more experience from the experiences I get through engagement with kids. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let me know. thank you!

Paula was a dream to work with. We are super careful with our puppy (first time dog parent) and Paula was so sweet and personable to the little one. We could tell she was organized and super detailed just by how she responded to our posting and the questions she asked. We will for sure keep booking with Paula!

Hello, If you are looking for experience you’ve found it! Ive worked in a hospital O.R. The reason I share that is because I do not panic and have seen it ALL. Safety being my number one priority for your child. I am en educated Early Childhood caregiver with all of the CA required Units to teach preschool and fully Red Cross CPR/First aid certified. I was a private Nanny full time for a local family for several years, caring for their 2 children from infancy. Those children are school age now. The last 2 years Ive been providing back up care for business, serving families in the Bay area providing care in their homes. Im a big proponent of play and the important role it plays in a child's development. I especially enjoy outside time. I studied horticulture and am hugely passionate about plants. My life has always been caregiving either of people or plants. Trust is important to me. I am the one you can entrust with your most precious child! It’s a privilege to be trusted by you and to provide your family with excellence. I am a married Mom of 2 girls ages 22 and 19. I look forward to chatting with you about your childcare need.
