Hi my name is Laura I’m 28 years all, get the best out of myself and I try to teach them to do their best. It is a very rewarding job. I like to do activities outside such as reading, dancing, practicing and learning other languages. Also I like to do excercise, ride a bicycle, listen to English music, swimming, cooking, driving, visiting museums and having art exposure, culture and fashion; I love nature and travel.

“Laura helped us for back up care for our regular nanny. My daughter warmed up to her easily, and they had a great day together. It's clear Laura knows how to navigate early toddlerhood, and I was able to have peace of mind as a WFH mom.”

Booked by 4 families in Berkeley, CA

Hello there!! As an experienced nanny with a passion for working with children, I bring a wealth of skills, knowledge, and love to my work. With four years of experience in the field, I have honed my abilities to provide the highest quality care for children of all ages, backgrounds, and needs. My skills include preparing healthy meals, organizing engaging activities, creating a safe environment, and spending quality time with the children. But beyond my technical skills, what truly sets me apart as a nanny is my love for children. I firmly believe that every child deserves to feel valued, respected, and supported, and I strive to embody these values in all aspects of my work. Whether it's through active listening, creative problem-solving, or simply offering a hug or a kind word, I am committed to building strong relationships with the children and families I work with. I am dedicated to providing not only physical care but emotional support and guidance, helping children to develop confidence, self-esteem, and a love for learning. Diana

“Diana was AMAZING! I can't recommend her enough. My two year old is very hesitant to go with anyone other than a few people. He immediately took to her and had a WONDERFUL time. Diana is very responsible, dependable, trustworthy and amazing with children. She is wonderful!!”

Hi, I’m Lolis!  I am open to all work, from babysitting to full-time nanny positions. While I am new to Urbansitter, I am not new to caregiving! I have over seven years of experience. I love children and care for them as if they were my own. I have immense respect for the fact that you are entrusting me with your child, and I do not take it for granted. For the past few years my work has included full time nannying for a child 6 months to 2.5 years old, as well as some part time nannyshare work. In that role, I managed all aspects of care - feeding, sleep, play, and socialization. When I am caring for your child, I tailor the experience to the family. I am very easily reachable, and will send you updates and pictures if you want. Feel free to contact me at any time to see how things are going! Have a high-energy toddler? I am happy to match their energy and take them to the park to run around and play. Is your child in the mood to stay indoors? I’d love to stay in and play with them. Does your baby have trouble sleeping in their crib? I will let them sleep in my arms to make sure that they get the rest they need. Nothing brings me more joy than watching children learn new things. I love being with them every step of the way and seeing them grow and achieve things on their own. I enjoy supporting their learning, and celebrating every accomplishment.

“Lolis is a fantastic nanny and babysitter. She worked for us for two years while our son was 6 months to 2.5 years old. She still babysits fir us frequently, as our son loves her and we want to maintain the relationship. She is punctual, communicative, and professional. For the children, she is both loving and energetic. Any family would benefit from hiring her.”

Hi there! My name is Cassandra (Cass for short!) and I’ve been exclusively nannying for 6 years with over 12 years total of childcare experience. I live in Oakland with my husband and our senior chihuahua, Wayward. Originally, I am from Newton, Massachusetts and went to college for Political Science. CPR and first aid certified.

“Cass did a great job caring for my two young boys while preschool is out for summer break! She worked through some difficult moments where my older one missed me well, and left the house cleaner than when she found it! I'll be booking her for more help right away!”

"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."
