Booked by 3 families in Hercules, CA

Hi there! My name is Adriana, and I have 4 years of hands-on experience working with children aged 3 to 15. I bring a wealth of practical knowledge and a deep passion for nurturing young minds. My commitment to providing a safe and enriching environment extends beyond childcare—I also care for pets and am proficient in light housework, ensuring that families return to a tidy and organized home. Currently pursuing a degree in Sociology, I’m fascinated by the dynamics of human interaction, which enhances my understanding of child development and behavior. With CPR/First Aid certification and a spotless driving record, safety is always my top priority.

“This was my first time booking through Urban Sitter, let alone having someone that was not family watch my child. Adriana arrived on time and got acclimated quickly with my daughter. They played games and by the time I returned home it was lights out. Overall a great experience and I foresee myself rebooking with Adriana again. ”

Booked by 2 families in Hercules, 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.”

"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."
