Hi, and welcome to my profile. I'm originally from Iceland and have lived in Walnut Creek for 16 years. I raised my three girls here and welcomed a grandson 2.5 years ago. I would love to help families part-time in the area with their daily chores, including helping with children, light household, and pet sitting, part-time or occasionally. I have extensive experience with children and being a nanny, as well as caring for the elderly, and raising my own kids. Friends and family describe me as patient, kind, engaging, a good listener, and calm. I'm creative. I love art, reading, music, cooking, nature, and sports. I'm a non-smoker, absolutely no drinking or drugs - ever. I have my car and I'm flexible and don't need too much notice if needed. I look forward to connecting. Thank you!

Was able to help out at the last minute - a total pro!

Hi families! My name is Lais, and I am a dedicated professional nanny with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I have extensive experience caring for children from newborns all the way to teenagers, and I am comfortable and confident with kids of all ages. I also have specialized experience supporting neurodivergent children, and I adapt my care to a variety of approaches—whether that’s gentle parenting, Montessori, RIE, or other philosophies. Despite earning my degree, I decided to continue my career as a nanny because I am deeply passionate about building strong, trusting relationships with families. I plan to grow in this field as a lifelong professional and bring my psychology background into my work every day. I am happy to provide references and my resume upon request, and I’m always available to respond to any texts from families who want to know more about my experience. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. I look forward to connecting and learning about your family’s unique needs! I look forward to connecting and learning about your family’s unique needs!

Lais is an experienced caregiver who had many strategies to handle our rambunctious children!

"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."
