Booked by 1 family in Lafayette, CA

Hello families! I am a patient, responsible, and caring caregiver with more than ten years of experience caring for and supporting children, seniors, and families. As a mother, I understand how important safety, patience, and trust are. I can help with meal preparation, grocery shopping, errands, companionship, walks, transportation to medical appointments, and daily routines. I enjoy reading, outdoor activities, music, and creating a calm and positive environment for children. I am also comfortable with pets. I speak Persian and English, have reliable transportation, and hold a current First Aid certification. My background in customer service, education, photography, and community work has helped me become organized, dependable, creative, and respectful toward people from different cultures and backgrounds. I listen carefully to each family’s needs and always treat children, seniors, and their families with kindness and respect.

Susie $40 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Lafayette, CA

Hi, there! I am an authentically enthusiastic, welcoming, & dedicated experiential education professional, skilled in making joyful and meaningful connections with others, particularly children & youth. I have over 20 years experience working with children and youth in outdoor education, 3.5 years experience as a private nanny (ages 1-4), and 13 years experience as a mom (successfully raising 2 children since birth). :-) I have a B.A. and M.S. in Recreation (with a focus on youth programming), I have an active Wilderness First Responder certification (advanced medical training), and I drive groups of students regularly for outdoor excursions. I am equally passionate about outdoor education and early childhood development, so nature play/exploration is an integral part of my nanny care! Outdoor education focuses on learning through experience, saying “yes” to try, and being curious about the world around us. I am creative, dedicated, easy-going, and a self-starter yet love working as a team. In addition to outdoor exploration, I integrate songs, art, baking, and field trips (e.g., zoos) into my work with children, and I bring a global perspective of having visited 17 countries. I would love to explore this opportunity to work with you and your precious little one(s)!

Booked by 1 family in Lafayette, CA

Hi! My name is Yoselyn. I am from Peru and I speak Spanish and English. I have over 8 years of experience working with children through volunteering, babysitting, and childcare support. I am very patient, caring, honest, and responsible. I have taken childcare and infant care courses, and I am trained in first aid. I have also participated in volunteer work with children, which strengthened my passion for childcare. I truly enjoy supporting children's development and helping them learn, explore, and grow in a safe and positive environment. I always prioritize children's safety and emotional well-being. I am looking for a respectful and safe environment where I can support families and be part of children's daily routine. In my spare time, I enjoy swimming, watching movies, riding my bike, exploring new places, and hiking. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience, care, and positive energy to your family and support your children's growth.

“Yoselyn was great with my baby. She was always caring, patient, and dependable. I would definitely recommend her to any family looking for a kind and trustworthy nanny.”

I have 11 years of solid experience caring for children ages 0-17. I have learned the importance of providing children structure through my years of nannying and caretaking. In addition, I have hands-on experience nannying multiple infants and toddlers at a time. I am 100% comfortable providing adequate structure, age appropriate interaction and activities, safe play, healthy eating and resting. I have worked with students who have IEP's during the day, as well as taught at an elementary school in multiple after school programs, and provided therapy for children with autism. I have taught classes such as dance, painting, drawing, STEM/STEAM, and an academic excellence class. I have taught these classes for children in pre-school up to fifth grade. I recently was a preschool teacher at a Montessori school and have a daughter as well. She is a 6 year old.

Hey Families! I'm Lu, I’m Colombian. I started working with kids on 2019 as an Au Pair for a family in Orinda. A little bit about me: - I started working with kids when I was 20 years old for a non-profit (TECHO) in my home country. - I'm a loving person with kids. My goal is making them feel comfortable, safe and happy with me. - The last six years working with kids different ages have brought me the experience to help kids to manage their emotions. - My husband and I love dogs (specially poodles) and pet sit during our time off. - I like to read. - I'm passionate about Design and Organization. - I’m a Spanish teacher in Lamorinda. Thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope we can meet soon. *I’m new looking for a job here but I can share with you my recommendations*

"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."
