Hello, my name is Guadalupe. I am a dedicated and experienced nanny with over 6 years of hands-on childcare experience, working with children of various ages since 2018. As a mother of four, I bring both professional and personal experience in creating a safe, nurturing, and structured environment for children.I have a strong passion for working with toddlers and young children, helping them develop essential skills through engaging activities, language learning (including Spanish), and age-appropriate education. I focus on supporting children’s emotional, social, and developmental growth while maintaining a positive and caring atmosphere. I am reliable, patient, and attentive, and I understand the importance of communication and trust when working with families. After recently caring for my granddaughter, I am excited to return to the nanny field and support a family in providing quality care for their children.

Booked by 2 families in Castro Valley, CA

Dear Family, I hope you are doing well. My name is Samantha, and I am reaching out to express my interest in providing care and support for your family. I have experience working with infants and children from 6 months up to the age of 12. I am CPR and First Aid certified and comfortable caring for up to two children at a time. For the past 4 years, I’ve had the joy of caring for children of different ages. Work history includes 2 years of nanny experience, and 2 years of Au pair. My most recent experience, I cared for a family of 2 and came in when the first child was 6 months old and the youngest was 14 months when I left. For Au pairing, I came in when the youngest child was 4yrs old and the oldest was 12. These positions have given me valuable experience caring for children and adapting to their daily routines and needs. I am an easy going, patient, friendly, and confident person. An effective communicator and believe in communication is key. I pride myself in communicating with family in-person, via text or phone call to ensure clear understanding of household rules and a safe, structured, loving environment. With my experience, I will bring an unforgettable support to your lovely family by providing reliable, attentive care while fostering your children’s emotional, social, and developmental growth. Thank you for your time and consideration. I will love the opportunity to discuss how I can support your family and look forward to hearing from you. Warm regards, Samantha.

“Berenize jumped in and helped at the last minute to support our four year old son. She was probably better at “playing” with our son than just about anyone we can remember. He had a fantastic time. ”

"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."
