Paphawarin $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Paphawarin, but you can call me Eve. I’m a nanny with a Bachelor’s degree in Occupational Therapy from Thailand. I have been working with children, especially those with special needs, since 2019. In September 2022, I moved to the U.S. as an au pair, caring for a 7-year-old girl and her sweet 6-year-old brother on the autism spectrum. In July 2024, I moved out and began working as a full-time nanny. I cared for a little girl who is now 2 years old, but she was 18 months when I started. My daily responsibilities included: • Preparing healthy meals • Diaper changes, bath time, nap and bedtime routines • Washing bottles and doing the baby’s laundry • Driving her to storytime, the library, museums, Art class,gymnastic class and other activities • Supporting educational and sensory play for her development • Potty training assistance She started preschool at the end of August, so I am now looking for a new family to support. I have my own car, which makes me flexible and reliable for transportation needs. I truly love working with children and would be happy to bring my experience, warmth, and reliability to your family. I hope to hear from you soon! Warm regards, Eve

$32 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in El Cerrito, CA

Hello families, I'm Luz Maria, though most know me as Lucy. I'm the youngest of five siblings, who enjoys spontaneous adventures, hiking, and spending time with loved ones. I value being open-minded, kind, curious, and empathetic. I strongly believe in self-care, recognizing that we can best care for others when we also take care of ourselves. I have over a decade of experience supporting infants and toddlers. My top priority is their safety. Beyond that, I strive to create an environment where children feel encouraged to explore and learn. I take time to truly listen and understand each child's needs, emphasizing being present and intentional in every interaction. I believe children should be able to fully express themselves by talking through emotions, while still setting boundaries. My goal as a nanny is to help children explore their world safely and confidently while supporting each family's values, routines, and parenting style. Please let me know your needs and how I can be a valuable addition to your family’s support system.

“Luz is a fantastic and loving nanny for my little boy for almost 17 months. I met Luz at the park and saw how incredible she was interacting with kids espicialy infants and toddlers, the reason why I hired her as my night sitter couple times a month. She is responsible, caring, honest, communicative and on-time throughout her employment with me. For anyone who is looking for a nanny, I would strongly recommend Luz she is an amazing nanny who will sincerely care for your children like they are 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."
