Yoselin $35 per hour for 1 child

I had the pleasure of working with a family for over seven years, caring for their children throughout many important stages of their lives. When I first began, I cared for their 3-year-old, their 9-year-old, and later helped care for their newborn. During my time with the family, I provided dependable and compassionate care, including overnight and live-in support whenever needed while the parents traveled out of town for work meetings in Sacramento. I always treated the children with patience, love, and responsibility, and I became someone the family could truly rely on. Although it was difficult to leave, I relocated and I am very grateful for the support and encouragement the family gave me throughout that decision. This is the reason behind my ongoing journey with being a nanny. Warm, dependable, and attentive nanny with hands-on experience caring for children of various ages. Known for creating a safe, structured, and loving environment where children feel comfortable and supported. Strong ability to balance fun, learning, and discipline while maintaining clear communication with parents. Committed to helping children grow emotionally, socially, and academically.

Katia Teresa 2 reviews
$35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 5 families in Half Moon Bay, CA

My name is Katia Dedicated and caring teacher with over 18 years of experience working with children from newborns to 15 years old. Skilled and passionate about supporting children’s growth through educational and creative activities. Experienced nanny with strong communication and organizational skills. Certified in CPR and First Aid, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for every child.

“Katia has been an incredible addition to our family, and I recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, capable, and dependable nanny. She has been exceptionally flexible with our family’s schedule, which has made a huge difference because of our variable work hours. She currently helps with our son before and after school, and she is seeking additional hours. Katia brings a wonderful energy into our home, and our son took to her almost immediately. As a preschool teacher, Katia has a strong understanding of early childhood development and knows exactly what to look for at each stage. This experience truly shows in her work. Our 2.5-year-old son has developed so many positive habits under her care, including washing his hands regularly, getting dressed, and building a sense of independence. We feel very fortunate to have her. I feel selfish not wanting to share her with another family, but I highly recommend her for her professionalism, flexibility, and wonderful personality.”

Bruna $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, how are you ? I'm a warm and nurturing nanny with 10 years of experience working with kids from all ages looking for a new position starting soon. I have the covid and flu shot updated. I'm non-smoker and pet friendly. My last two jobs I was taking care of 1 baby girl 6mo, before that I was taking care of 2 little girls for 2 years in a great relationship, now they are 4 and 6yo so I have the experience in taking care of two kids at time. I love to help children learn and explore in a safe, warm, and joyful environment. My favorite activities are in the outdoors, take the kids to the playground, library, storytime, scramble, explore parks/gardens to do picnic and observe animals/nature every time the weather allows, organize playdates and every other appropriate activity that will help them improve their abilities. At home I love to have music around and encourage the kids to play on their owns to help them develop their imagination and independence but always around and participating too. I also enjoy games, puzzle, build with blocs, legos etc. I consider myself a very friendly, responsible, caring, kind and loving person. I am comfortable performing light housekeeping, meal prep, changing diapers and others negotiable duties. I'll be happy to provide references so please let me know if you would like to set up a time for a call to discuss the details. Hope to hear from you soon.

"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."
