Booked by 2 families in Alameda, CA

Hello! I’m a nurturing, compassionate caregiver with a lifetime of experience caring for children, adults, and seniors. I am mom of three wonderful adults, with a degree in nursing (BS from UVA) and experience as an art director. Over the years, I’ve cared for people of all ages, from babysitting to working in children’s rehabilitation and autism support. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and recently trained as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT). I’ve also cared for seniors, recently supporting my own father through his dementia journey. With two cats and a lifelong love for animals, I’m equally at home with pets. Beyond caregiving, I enjoy ceramics, painting, and outdoor activities. I bring warmth, reliability, and a genuine love for people of all ages. I’d be honored to support your family—please reach out with any questions!

Martina $30 per hour for 1 child

Childcare & household assistance * I’m Martina, with 2 years of professional childcare experience with children ages 2–6. I’m also happy to care for babies. * For the last two years, I cared for two boys between 2 and 5, from the bottle-and-diaper stage to driving them to preschool and activities, swimming, skiing, biking, cooking, and spending lots of time outdoors. * I’m open to a family/household assistant role and would love to be a reliable extra pair of hands, helping with both the children and the household. About me * I’m 25, the oldest in my family, with 14 younger cousins and a younger sister, so caring for children has always felt natural to me. * I’m responsible and value open communication about everyone’s needs and expectations. * I respect each family’s rules and routines, while bringing my own ideas when welcome. * I love caring for others, introducing children to new experiences, and seeing that little spark in their eyes when they learn or discover something new. * I enjoy an active, healthy lifestyle, running, swimming, freestyle roller skating; I’m also interested in art and architecture. I’d love to start right away! Feel free to message me - maybe I’m exactly the nanny you’ve been looking for! 😊

"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."
