Hi! My name is Hue (or Emily). I’ve been working with a family in the Panhandle since their baby girl was 8 months old, and she has now started preschool. I’ve been with them for 4+ years and am currently looking for a part-time or full-time position. I have over 10 years of experience caring for infants and toddlers. I’ve worked with single families, nanny shares, and siblings. The youngest baby I’ve cared for was just 2 weeks old. A typical day with a baby includes breakfast, a bottle before the morning nap, lunch with solid foods, and another bottle before the afternoon nap. During the day, I incorporate indoor activities like music, reading, and helping develop motor skills such as crawling, standing, and walking. I also make it a priority to get outside every day - whether it’s going to the park or library for story time - so they can get fresh air, build social skills, and interact with other children. I make sure everything related to the child is clean and organized, including diaper changes, washing bottles, preparing meals, and bathing before parents get home. I’ve had the joy of supporting many important milestones, such as crawling, first teeth, introducing solid foods, sleep training, standing, walking, and nap transitions. While there can be challenges - like sleep training, feeding transitions, or adjusting schedules - I’m patient and experienced in helping both children and parents through those stages. For toddlers, I help with daily routines such as breakfast, snacks, playground time, story time or music classes, lunch, and naps. I also assist with dishes and laundry when needed. I truly enjoy spending time with kids and building a strong, caring relationship with them. I love keeping children active with outdoor activities like going to the park, scootering, biking, and dancing, rather than relying on screens. I also enjoy cooking healthy meals for kids (such as meatballs, beef, salmon, and chicken), and I’m happy to help with light household tasks like dishes, laundry, and organizing children’s spaces. Please feel free to reach out if you think I might be a good fit for your family. Thank you so much!

Hey there! I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) childcare professional originally from Colombia, with over 5 years of experience working with families and schools in the Bay Area. Able to travel during the summer — June and July I currently work as a Bilingual Paraprofessional in Special Education and am a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) at a high school, supporting students with diverse learning and behavioral needs. My background has given me a strong foundation in child development, emotional regulation, routines, and positive behavior support — always with patience, warmth, and structure. I’ve worked with multiple children at the same time, from 4 months to 16 years old, both as a nanny/sitter and in educational settings. Families often describe me as calm, creative, responsible, and adventurous, with an easy and natural way of connecting with kids. I love being an active caregiver: crafts, tutoring, outdoor play, storytelling, building forts, drawing, cooking/baking lessons, and other hands on activities, reducing screen time. I’m currently available for occasional babysitting, and especially interested in travel nanny opportunities during summer and school breaks. Credentials & Experience Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) Bilingual Paraprofessional – Special Education Paraeducator Certification – Teacher College of San Joaquin No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Compliance for Instructional Support – Fremont Unified School District 5+ years working with families across the Bay Area Experience supporting children with special needs and diverse learning styles I’m comfortable with pets, happy to help with school drop-offs/pick-ups, light household support, errands, and meal prep. I can also share excellent references and always bring a calm, trustworthy presence into any home. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. (I am also a great bridge partner!) I'm animal lover, in my country, I had two dogs and one cat, sometimes I take care of my friend's dog. Thank you. Looking forward to connecting with your family!

"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."
