Booked by 19 families in San Francisco, CA

Hi! My name is Vanessa, I’m 27 years old and originally from Colombia 🇨🇴, where I studied Finance. I’ve been living in the U.S. for over three years and have strong experience working with children and households in different support roles. My main area of experience is childcare. I’ve worked with children since 2019, including volunteering in Peru teaching English to kids and teens (ages 5–16), working in a kindergarten with infants and toddlers (3 months to 5 years), and two years as an au pair in the U.S., caring primarily for toddlers and school-aged children (6 and 10 years old). I’m confident with routines, meals, naps, playtime, and age-appropriate activities. I’m happy to support families in different roles, depending on what you’re looking for: • Childcare / Babysitting: focused on children’s care, routines, and well-being 👩🏻‍🍼👶🏻 • Pet sitting: feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship 🐶🐱 • House sitting: caring for the home while you’re away 🏡 • Household help: light tasks related to the role (tidying up, laundry, simple meal prep, errands) 🧺✅ I love animals — I grew up on a family farm and have a cat back home in Colombia 😻— and I’m very comfortable caring for pets, especially cats and small dogs. Families describe me as reliable, organized, proactive, and easy to communicate with. I truly enjoy being helpful and supporting families in a professional and respectful way. I’d love to connect and see how I can help!

Hello families! My name is Galen and I’m looking forward to supporting your family’s child and other care needs. I’m a therapist by training and by day with a masters degree in social work, but I’m looking to build community and supplement my income by caring for children on nights and weekends. I have 15+ years of experience caring for kids of all ages as well as tutoring, pet care, cooking, and light housework. I took a few years away from this app to focus on grad school, but I’m excited to get back to childcare. I maintain CPR certification through work and am up-to-date on all vaccines. Looking forward to meeting you!

“Galen was fantastic. Not only was she kind and engaging with our 2yo but she was also very proactive in helping to tidy up toys and helping me out with my todo list in the kitchen while my daughter was napping. She was delightful and we’ll be having her back!”

Booked by 13 families in San Francisco, CA

Hello! My name is Georgina but you can call me Gina! I am currently a grad student at USF and I have been babysitting for more than 10 years. I took care of my younger siblings all through from when they were born to middle school. In addition to this, I have babysat for many kids during playdates, I have taken care of babies/ toddlers, and I have experience with kids with disabilities. After college I spent my summer working in house for a family with kids aged 3 and 1 1/2. During this time I helped wake the kids up, make meals, create and prepare activities for playtime, and cleaned around the house. Every time I babysit, I like to make sure kids have something to eat, I like to help with their homework and/or any other activities. I am very enthusiastic, responsible, and dependable! I know Spanish in addition to English and I dance ballet! Please don't hesitate to contact me at any given time!

“Georgina was great with our 9 month old! Very communicative and friendly. We would love to have her back to sit another time”

*Note* Mainly accepting evenings or date nights. I would love to add more families to my roster of regulars; please feel free to text me if you are interested in a particular date that may not be listed. Hello parents! My name is Idallis (eyed-al-is). I’m a 27 year old Bay Area native with 9 years of experience as a member of Urbansitter. I have a background check, up to date vaccinations (including COVID booster and flu shot), 170+ positive reviews, and almost 700 bookings via this website. As a member of UrbanSitter, I’ve had full-time and part-time positions as well as one live-in position in 2020 with many wonderful families; additionally, I’ve been fortunate enough to have long-term relationships with some who have booked me regularly for date-nights for years. I use positive reinforcement as a form of discipline, and approach every situation with empathy and patience. What sets me apart is that I love my job, and most of the time - it doesn’t feel like one! I love working with children and encourage them to embrace their independence and explore their interests. While I work with a variety of age ranges, cumulatively I have the most experience with 1 to 2 year olds. However, I have gained a ton of experience with infants in the past three years (and I’m currently working with one!). I'm kind, charismatic, patient, and responsible. I studied art history for two years. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking, baking, crocheting, and hanging out with my very affectionate cats or discovering locally owned restaurants with friends. Personal Policies/Requests: - I have a $120 minimum for each booking. Thank you! - I don’t drive so an Uber home or compensation is appreciated for evening bookings but of course, not required. - Please book alternative childcare if your child(ren) have symptoms of or have been diagnosed with COVID-19, flu, HFM, pink eye, and other highly contagious illnesses. I will also notify you if I have symptoms of anything contagious so that we can plan together accordingly.
