Hello families! I’m from Argentina and fluent in Spanish, Italian, and English, with a basic understanding of Portuguese. I consider myself patient, organized, responsible, active, adventurous, and fun. I lead an active lifestyle and enjoy various sports and outdoor activities. I have 9+ years of experience caring for children of all ages, both in Argentina while studying Nutrition and here in San Francisco. I moved to San Francisco in 2021 and worked as an au pair for a year. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to work with several families and gain experience with children of different ages, including solo care, sibling and group care, weekends, full days, and overnights. I recently completed a three-year position with the same family in San Francisco, caring for their son from toddlerhood until he started school. Now that he has started school, I’m back on the app and looking for my next family to work with. I’m excited to bring the experience and skills I’ve developed over the years to a new family. I have a genuine passion for working with children. I come from a big family and have always been surrounded by children of different ages. My mom was a kindergarten teacher, so I grew up with a strong appreciation for working with children. I enjoy creating fun and engaging experiences for children and love taking them to parks, playgrounds, libraries, museums, and other local activities. I also enjoy incorporating active play, learning, and exploration into our time together. Additionally, I have a love for animals, especially dogs, and have had pets my entire life. I’m comfortable and confident caring for them and enjoy taking them to the park or incorporating them into our daily routine. I’m CPR certified and fully vaccinated. I have great references available upon request. I’m excited to meet a new family and create a great relationship built on trust, communication, and reliability!

“Maria was great with my kids! In fact they have already requested her for our next event! ”

TrustLine & CPR Certified | Evenings & Weekends Available 🤍 About Me Hi families! I’m Ale, a bilingual professional nanny with over 13 years of hands-on childcare experience and a deep passion for supporting children’s emotional, social, and developmental growth. I currently work full-time as a nanny in Pacific Heights, caring for a precious baby, and I’m now available for part-time care after 5:00 pm on weekdays and flexible weekends. My childcare journey began as an au pair in San Francisco, and since then I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I hold a degree in Philosophy and Literature, am CPR certified, TrustLine registered, and a Nanny Pro certified caregiver. I’m also a swim instructor for young children and love incorporating movement, creativity, outdoor play, and gentle structure into our time together. On weekends, I collaborate with TIFFAN.org, where I teach the in-person Nanny Pro course, mentoring other nannies on professional childcare, communication with families, and respectful, heart-centered caregiving. This role reflects my commitment to high standards, trust, and professionalism in childcare. I believe in nurturing independent, curious, and emotionally secure children. Whether it’s story time, imaginative play, park adventures, or calm evening routines, I bring warmth, reliability, and intention to every family I work with. Availability • Weekdays: After 5:00 pm • Weekends: Flexible • Location: San Francisco (Pacific Heights, Noe Valley, Bernal Heights, nearby areas) I’m happy to provide excellent references and my resume upon request. For your peace of mind, I’m fully vaccinated (Tdap, MMR, COVID-19) and have up-to-date TB clearance. If you’re looking for a caring, responsible, and experienced nanny for evenings or weekends, I’d love to connect. Warmly, Ale 🤍 Please read my reviews! :)

“Alejandra was great! She arrived right on time and took great care of our 3yo son River, including getting him to bed, which is notoriously difficult. I would definitely recommend Alejandra!”

Hi, my name is Oumaima. I'm 28 years old and I'm originally Italian. I consider myself a very reliable, patient and happy person. :) I truly enjoy spending time with kids so that makes my job a lot easier to do, I do love teaching them new things and be able to help them improve their skills. I have worked with children of all ages for the past 5years (newborns- 12/15yo) so I know how to handle a workload and be on top of the situation at all times.  I am a very energetic and outgoing person who enjoys outdoors activities and sports.  With the previous kids i worked with, we enjoyed going to the library together and read in italian/english; go to music classes, as well as gymnastic and yoga classes. If the situation allowed it we would spend the day at the museum or have playdates with our little friends at the park, of course,  depending on the age of the children activities tend to vary but i'm sure we'll find something exciting and fun to do! Previous experiences also include -sleep training  -introduction to solid food/finger food  -potty training  -laundry wash/fold  No need to mention that maintaining some sort of order in the house at all times and help with light housekeeping/meal prep. if necessary is totally fine and understandable; obviously my goal as a nanny is to provide the best environment possible for both the children and the parents.  My first language is italian but I also speak english, spanish and arabic. I would be very happy to introduce the kids to different languages but if not required english works perfectly fine.  I hope i was able to tell you a little bit about myself, but if you'd like to learn more please don't hesitate to contact me. Looking forward to hearing from you soon! Wish you a great rest of your day  Thank you -UMI

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
