Hello families and little ones my name is bridgette and I am a big lover and adorer of children! I’m a very creative person that has accomplish many things, but would love to share the extra time I have playing, teaching and giving love to a little one! I am 37 years old and have been a caregiver to children since my teenage years. I have a long track record on care.com and many references. I must say that seeing the little boys & girls I used babysit on social media receiving their first cars and going to college is mind blowing. 🤣 I live in the city & I have a very flexible schedule with open availability most days and flexible with last-minute plans and changes. I would love to opportunity to work for a smaller large family and build a fun bond with lots of trust and peace for everyone. Looking forward to connecting with ya!
I managed a childcare department at the YMCA in Redding, CA for 2 years and have worked in childcare and nannying for 8 years, half of that being in the Bay Area. I've worked with all ages from newborn up to teenagers, with an large cluster of those being around ages 4-10. Every age comes with its own delights, challenges, and needs, and I enjoy learning the particularities of what will work for each family and child. I love being active and incorporate movement into my care as much as I can, whether that's playing soccer in the yard, turning on music for a dance party, or going for walks or bike rides. Creative projects are also a big part of my life, and I often bring in crafts and hands-on activities. Drawing a favorite object, making a mosaic out of stones at the park, bringing my latest knitting project as a little show and tell -- there are so many ways to engage creatively! My goal is to make sure every child is safe, happy, and feels engaged with. I grew up in a large, formerly Amish family and have been around and watching kids my whole life. I’m a recent political economy graduate from UC Berkeley, currently doing oral history and linguistic work when I'm not caring for children.
“Eythana is an absolutely fantastic babysitter - extremely experienced and knowledgeable about children, completely reliable, totally professional, and just all-around fantastic. She cared for my son before school on a regular basis when he was in his last year of preschool and in kindergarten (he’s now 8 and in third grade), and she still our favorite sitter and my first call/text when something comes up I need someone to care for my son! My son has a great time with her every time she sits for us, and I know he’s in great hands and doing engaging activities and off screens. I highly, highly recommend her to any family looking for a trusted and experienced sitter who’s absolutely great with kids.”
I’m a recent UC Berkeley graduate, 22 years old, with a B.A. in English Literature, and I still live in Berkeley. I’ve grown up in a care-oriented, family-centered household with three younger brothers, and helping to raise them has been a central part of my life. From feeding, dressing, and managing bedtime routines to helping with homework and keeping them entertained, I’ve learned firsthand how to balance responsibility, patience, and fun. That lifelong experience, combined with babysitting for other families, has given me a strong foundation in childcare and a deep appreciation for creating nurturing, safe, and engaging environments for children of all ages. I love being active and outdoors, so I enjoy hiking, running, and exploring new spaces with kids, as well as quiet time reading or telling stories to spark creativity and imagination. Growing up in a busy, caring household has taught me empathy, adaptability, and problem-solving. These are skills that I bring to every family or parent that I work with. I’m comfortable helping with light household tasks, meal prep, homework, and daily routines while keeping children happy, safe, and stimulated. I’m happy to babysit anywhere in the Bay Area and am excited to bring my experience, energy, and love of caregiving to new families. I take pride in building trust with both parents and children and creating a positive, supportive environment where kids can learn, play, and feel cared for.
Hi, my name is Marcie and I have two kids of my own who are now 28 and 23. Both of my kids have moved away from home and I now have a lot of free time. I work for UCSF Pediatric Neurology full time but my days end early. I created an urban sitter account to helps parents in need in the afternoon and occasionally on the weekends. I have years of experience with kids due to having my own but I also occasionally help out with my sisters daycare. We care for 4-6 children ages 6 months - 5 years old.
“Our daughter loved her time with Marcie! She is amazing and we can't wait to have her over again.”
Hi! I’m Cinthia, and I have 6+ years of experience caring for children of all ages — from infants as young as 4 months old to pre-teens up to 12 years old. I truly love working with children and especially enjoy caring for infants, toddlers, and young girls. I love keeping kids engaged through age-appropriate activities, outdoor play, creative games, reading, and helping with homework, while always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m CPR certified, patient, responsible, and dependable. I bring a calm, positive energy into the home and always do my best to make things easier for both the children and their parents. I’m currently looking for part-time opportunities, especially on Mondays and Fridays, as well as occasional babysitting such as date nights, evenings, weekends, and last-minute or extra help when families need it. I have a valid U.S. driver’s license and my own transportation, and I’m comfortable driving children when needed. If you’re looking for someone caring, trustworthy, responsible, and fun to spend time with your little ones, I’d love to connect! ❤️
“I’m so happy to recommend Cinthia as a babysitter. She’s been amazing with my twins and has truly become part of our family. From the start, she showed how reliable and trustworthy she is, and I always feel at ease leaving my kids with her. She takes care of all the daily needs ( feeding them, giving them baths, getting them ready for bed) and she’s even stayed overnight when we needed extra help. Having someone so calm and patient in the house has been a huge plus, especially with two little ones who sometimes both want attention at the same time. What I really appreciate is how she goes beyond just “watching” the kids. She takes them out on playdates, keeps them busy with fun activities, and makes sure they’re safe while still letting them explore and enjoy themselves. She has a really gentle way about her, and the twins just light up when she’s around. Even on hectic days, she never seems flustered and always keeps things running smoothly. Cinthia is dependable, easy to communicate with, and so caring toward my kids. Knowing she’s there gives me peace of mind because I know my twins are happy and well looked after. Any family would be lucky to have her as their babysitter, and I can honestly say she’s been one of the best things to happen to us.”

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
