I am so excited to be part of your family to share my experience as a caregiver. I am a fun and outgoing person who loves to do activities with kids, listen to them and have fun with them.I am also bilingual. I speak english and french.

“I highly recommend Fatou as a nanny. She has been with our family for almost six months and is responsible, dependable, and dedicated. What I appreciate most is that she cares for our baby girl like family, putting genuine love into her care and remembering all our instructions. I feel completely at ease when I’m not home because I know Lina is in good hands. Any family would be lucky to have her.”

Loving and Calm Childcare Provider | Experienced Nanny & Mom Hi, my name is Nceba. I was born and raised in South Africa and have worked as a professional childcare provider in the Bay Area since 2019. I’m also a proud wife and mom to a sweet toddler, which has given me an even deeper understanding of child development and the day-to-day needs of babies and young children. I trained at the Au Pair Training School in New York through Cultural Care, where I learned how to support children through different developmental stages. With nearly a decade of childcare experience, I especially enjoy caring for infants and toddlers ages 6–24 months. As a mother, I also bring first-hand experience with newborn care and toddler milestones. Experience Highlights: * Former live-in au pair for two children, ages 5 and 7 * More than six years of professional nanny experience with Bay Area families * Older sister to five siblings, giving me years of natural, hands-on childcare experience * Mom to a toddler, with real-life experience from the newborn stage through toddlerhood What I Offer: I enjoy creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. Depending on their age, our days may include reading, singing, sensory play, baby or toddler massage, outdoor walks, creative activities, and early learning through play. For long-term positions, I’m also happy to help with child-related chores such as preparing children’s meals, organizing their belongings, doing their laundry, and keeping their play and eating areas tidy. About Me: Families describe me as calm, patient, dependable, and nurturing. Outside of childcare, I enjoy art and visiting museums. I speak English fluently, as well as Zulu, Xhosa, and Afrikaans. I currently freelance remotely and also work occasionally with a wonderful family who allows me to bring my toddler. This arrangement has worked beautifully for everyone and has created a great partnership between our families. Although I’m not actively seeking just any position, I’m always eager to help when I meet a wonderful family and we feel like a genuinely great match. My long-term goal is to become a postpartum doula so I can provide compassionate, knowledgeable support to both mothers and babies during the early stages of life.

“Nonceba is awesome! My kids loved her and the baby. I think they have a new favorite sitter now. Thanks for the help, and the kids can't wait until you come back 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."

"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."
