Hello! My name is Lívia. I am a freelance children’s books illustrator and art student. I’m extremely passionate about children and have worked closely in childcare with kids for the past 10 years now. My experience entails working mostly with infants and toddlers, but I have also been privileged to work on social projects involving misfortunate families and children across all ages in poverty. I am from Brazil but currently living in Oakland, CA. I consider myself a creative, enthusiastic and a responsible person. Thank you so much for taking the time to view my profile and looking forward to an opportunity to work with you.

Hi there! I'm 32 years old. I'm from Brazil and I have 8+ years experience with kids. My experience is with kids from the age 0 months old to 16yo. I'm patient, caring, responsible, flexible, dependable, organized, happy and very positive. I’m actually looking for opportunities for the month of June to help out with summer.

Booked by 2 families in Lafayette, CA

Decades as a preschool teacher across the SF Bay Área working with ages 0 to 7, focused on Spanish-immersion and play-based care that supports emotional and developmental growth.

“Leyla is a true gem. She used to be a daycare teacher and has been our nanny -- both individual and as part of a share -- for the past 9 months. She's been such an attentive and sweet caretaker who sings to the babies, helps with their food prep, and plays with them all day. In addition, she sends detailed summaries of what/how much the babies ate/drank during the day and their nap schedules. She can easily handle two little ones (even taking them to the park!) and is extremely reliable. She's originally from Peru and is also a skilled cook. We miss her already.”

Booked by 14 families in Lafayette, CA

Hello! I am a proactive, responsible and dedicated nanny, family assistant and household manager. I have 10 plus years of recent professional experience, excellent references, letters of recommendation, and I am ready for my next long term role. I love adventuring with kids or interactive playtime at home. I enjoy going for hikes in nature, walks to the park, library or museums, spotting airplanes, wildlife, flowers, great books and art. I also like playing games and doing arts and crafts, building lego creations & forts, playing with dolls and animals, or reading books with hot cocoa on a rainy day. A simple peek-a-boo session, singing ABC’s, practicing counting or tummy time for the little ones:) I have experience providing support with school drop off/pick up, driving children to and from after school activities, homework assistance, as well as household chores, preparing snacks & meals, doing laundry, running errands, dog walking, traveling with the family and overnight care. In addition, I have experience managing and assisting with household inventory, scheduling appointments and communicating with contractors, housekeepers or caterers, organizing closets and calendars, and managing packing lists and travel preparations. I am discreet and respectful of a family’s privacy when needed and yet I welcome sharing a meal with them when invited. I am flexible enough to calmly transition from meal prep to children to dishes and back to children again:) I am very healthy and live an active lifestyle outside of work. I am close to completing my psychology degree for transfer, with all classes being held asynchronous, which allows me the ability to fully commit to other responsibilities. I plan to stay in the Bay Area as I continue to pursue my higher education. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions. I look forward to connecting with you soon!

"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."
