$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in El Cerrito, CA

Hi there! My name is Angui. I’m originally from Colombia, and I’m 31 years old. I have almost four years of childcare experience. I first worked as an au pair for two years, and then as a nanny for a family in Montclair for another two years. In both roles, I cared for babies and young children. I currently work with a sweet 9-month-old baby on Thursdays. During our days together, we go for walks, I prepare and feed her meals, and we do tummy time and age-appropriate activities to help her build strength and develop her crawling skills. We also enjoy getting out of the house and spending time with other babies and nannies in the area. I also volunteer in the nursery at my church once a month, which I really enjoy. A few additional things about me: • Valid driver’s license, clean driving record, and my own reliable car • Authorized to work in the U.S. • Fingerprinted • CPR certified • Up-to-date vaccinations • MinistrySafe Child Sexual Abuse Awareness Training certified • Excellent references and recommendations • Available to provide occasional or vacation coverage for families who already have a nanny Right now, I’m focusing on my studies and building my career, so I’m looking for a part-time nanny opportunity in the Piedmont area and surrounding areas. I’d especially love to connect with families who need childcare for one or more days a week, or moms who need a few hours to themselves—to run errands, work, rest, or simply have some time for self-care—while knowing their little one is safe, loved, and well cared for. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident with the person caring for their baby. My goal is to provide not only reliable and attentive childcare, but also peace of mind for parents. If you’re looking for someone who can become a trusted part of your family’s support system, I’d love to connect! Please feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to chat and learn more about what you’re looking for. 😊

Booked by 1 family in El Cerrito, CA

Hello! I’m a 23-year-old childcare professional and college student currently studying Child and Adolescent Psychology at College of Alameda. I also work as a kindergarten teacher in the mornings, where I support early childhood development through structured learning, patience, and engaging care. I joined UrbanSitter to expand my experience with more personalized, one-on-one care, allowing me to better support each child’s unique needs, personality, and growth. I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing, and developmentally enriching environment while also making sure children feel comfortable, confident, and genuinely cared for. I am CPR certified, have a valid driver’s license, and reliable transportation. I’m highly dependable, attentive, and experienced in managing routines, transitions, and age-appropriate activities. In addition to childcare, I also offer pet care services, as I’m very comfortable with animals and enjoy incorporating that same level of attentiveness and care. My availability is flexible outside of my morning teaching schedule. I welcome both planned and last-minute bookings whenever possible—please feel free to reach out to discuss your family’s needs!

“Taylor was great with our 2 year boy! She arrived on time (and earlier!), kept our little guy entertained, and was super responsive and helpful while we WFH. Our toddler was comfortable with her and enjoyed reading and playing tiles with her. We'd definitely hire her again. ”

"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."
