$22 per hour for 1 child

Booked by 11 families in Santa Rosa, CA

Hello, My name is Lauryn, I’m 26 years old, and I have been a babysitter/nanny for over 8 years now working with children of all ages! I am passionate about helping kids learn and grow while making sure to still have fun along the way. I graduated from Sonoma State University in 2020 with my Bachelor’s in Business Management. I also just completed my Multiple Subject Credential to become an elementary school teacher! My current rate is $22 per hour for one child that is *above* 3 years of age and $25 per hour for one child that is *under* 3 years of age. I have plenty of references that I can provide for you as well. A majority of my experience comes from making local connections in my community. I can't wait to meet you and your family! - Lauryn

$25 per hour for 1 child

Booked by 75 families in Santa Rosa, CA

Hello,

Thank you for reading my profile. My name is Karen and I live in Santa Rosa, CA. My family has been here nearly 40 years now, we have migrated from "The Great Bay Area." I like being with kids and have extensive child care & background with my own family, helping to raise my niece and nephew years ago here in Santa Rosa, and helped with my nephew in Las Angeles a few years ago. The "after school shift", pick up from school, snack time, prep dinner, ect. :) I have experience as an asst. pre-school teacher for two years in SF several years ago and also taught Kinder Ski in the Sierra's, including intermediate skiing with middle school and high schoolers. Great job by the way had a blast and so did they! Now I like helping families & kids with safety & fun. I love music, and will help in any way I can. To a great day! kmn ps. I have successfully completed child development classes and teachers aid experience.

Best Wishes Always, Karen N.

“Super friendly, responsible, and communicative. My girls had a fun time with Karen!!”

Santa Rosa

$20 per hour for 1 child

Booked by 228 families in Santa Rosa, CA

Hi, my name is Ryann! At this time, I am only looking for occasional jobs as I cannot commit to a regularly scheduled babysitting job. I have a bachelor's degree in psychology with a minor in criminal justice studies from San Francisco State University, and I am planning to go back to school to obtain a master's degree sometime in the next few years. I am up-to-date on all my vaccinations and boosters (including COVID-19), and I am trained in CPR/AED/First Aid, however my certification has lapsed. While in college, I took three courses specifically related to child and adolescent psychology and development. I began babysitting when I was 12 years old, and have worked with children of various ages over the years (newborns to preteens) as a babysitter, nanny, and volunteer camp counselor. When weather permits, I like to take the kids outside, for walks or to play at the park. However, I am just as happy staying inside, playing games, doing arts and crafts, or reading to the kids. I can also speak conversational Spanish. In my spare time, I like to read, bake, and make jewelry.

Regarding COVID-19: I am happy to provide proof of full vaccination, including booster shots. I ask that all household members of families that I work with receive the vaccine and boosters when possible, unless medically unable. I expect mutual transparency; I cannot babysit when someone in the household is sick and/or has been exposed to COVID-19 and expect to be told as soon as possible so that the job can be canceled. Likewise, I will inform all families if I or someone in my household is sick and/or has been exposed to COVID-19 and will cancel the job with as much notice as possible. I will wear a mask while babysitting if preferred, just let me know!

*Please note, for liability reasons, I will not drive children in my personal vehicle; however, I am willing to drive children in a parent or guardian’s vehicle, provided that their insurance policy covers me. Similarly, I am also willing to transport children via public transportation, taxi, or Uber/Lyft.*

Booked by 7 families in Santa Rosa, CA

Hi, I’m Chantil. I am a loving, compassionate, reliable and fun mom to three children. I've worked in education and as a caregiver for over 20 years and have experience with little ones of varying ages, including babies.

I worked as a CNA, Home Health Aide and have worked in Waldorf Education and Special Education for many years. Looking forward to getting to know your family!

\* I have current and recent certification in Pediatric & Adult First Aid/CPR/AED and choking (OSHA approved blended online and in person, hands-on, skills course). I have previous experience and certification as a First Responder, though my certification is not current.

"Recommendations from friends are a must when it comes to a sitter for my kids. UrbanSitter has expanded our network of babysitters, and it has given us peace of mind."

Matt K., dad of two

"UrbanSitter has supported my needs for reliable and joyful sitters. Whether it be for work, recreation or last-minute emergencies, we've made wonderful relationships with local sitters who have become a part of our family!"

Natalie O., mom of five

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
