Hi! I’m Mariana, a warm, caring, and reliable nanny with 9+ years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, children and teens. I love helping families feel supported and at ease, and I enjoy creating a joyful, nurturing environment where children can learn, explore, and express themselves through arts and crafts, singing, dancing, storytelling, outdoor play, and age-appropriate learning moments. I’ve worked as a nanny in the U.S. for almost 8 years in both home and daycare settings, supporting daily routines, meals and hygiene, learning activities, and safe, engaging play. Families describe me as patient, dependable, flexible, and easygoing and I truly see working with children as a gift that fills my life with curiosity, kindness, and joy. Thanks for reading my profile. I look forward to meeting your family and helping your children grow, learn, and feel loved in a safe, happy environment! 💛

“We had a wonderful experience with her! She was warm, kind, and gentle with our baby, and we really appreciated how proactive and attentive she was. She asked thoughtful questions about our preferences and how we usually care for our baby, while also being very receptive to following our routines and the way we like things done. She was easy to communicate with, and we felt very comfortable having her care for our baby. We would absolutely love to hire her again!”

Hi - My name is Mariana and I’m looking for a 2 part time, weekdays, one in the morning one afternoon, open for a full time was well, and babysitting. Start in November I love working with kids and have experience caring for children from 6 months to 11 years old. I’m comfortable with everything from diaper changes to preparing meals, and I bring a mix of fun and learning to our time together — reading stories, coloring, puzzles, going to the park, and even the occasional dance party. I’m responsible, organized, and genuinely enjoy spending my days with kids. I’m CPR certified, a strong swimmer, fully vaccinated, and a safe driver.

“Mariana is an excellent babysitter. She is extremely professional and courteous. She’s experienced, confident, and communicated very well with our five year old daughter who is looking forward to playing with her again. She arrived a few minutes earlier and immediately dove in and engaged with our daughter. We are looking forward to having her babysit our daughter soon.”

Update on 09/28/2026 I work as a contractor currently, and am available for occasional or one-time requests at the moment. Please reach out with specific date & time, I should be able to give you a clear answer. Hello! My name is Soo. I have a passion for life of faith in Jesus, food and soccer. I have years of experiences working with children in different age groups in personal and professional settings as a babysitter, camp leader, after school program teacher, paraprofessional and substitute teacher/support school staff around the Bay Area in grades of TK to 5th. Working with children isn’t a smooth sailing but I actually really enjoy working with children, the cutie pies. I provide a place for your child to thrive in a play-based environment. I am not only present just for the sake of keeping a watch, but I strive to provide an environment and supervision where I foster and curate the day based children’s interests and minister to their emotional and educational growth as I learn to understand your child. Instead of harsh language and facial expressions, I seek connection through patience, understanding and empathy, knowing that they are still learning. I was crazy kid myself. As I grew older, I noticed how I was always surrounded by children, and I think I was a pretty popular playmate. I love many memories where we picked figs from the backyard, bake peach pies or just spend time in a competitive game of Tic Tac To, being this older sister I always wanted to have. I am an expert park-ranger and from the fancy skills of pushing two children on the swings, or making the greatest sand art, I make sure they have an awesome time with me. I’ve played collegiate level sports, and also have spent years to train as an artist. I am physically active with children. Parents have shown appreciation for the activities I‘ve provided, and I don’t leave work of cleaning up afterwards. I would love an opportunity to fill in as you step out to do what you need to do that day. They need good food, laughter and exercise. That is my priority. During our booking, I am not on the phone for personal use or entertainment. I use it as a tool to communicate or share updates with you. I am open to feedbacks and I appreciate transparency in our communication. If your child is SICK, please do let me know beforehand and be courteous. I’m looking forward to meeting with your family. It is a challenging time to raise children. Go mom & dad !!!

“Soo was able to come last minute to help with our son while his nanny was out sick, and immediately engaged with him and had a great day together, with lots of updates on how things were going and pics of their adventures. ”

With 19 years of experience in education, I bring a wealth of knowledge, leadership, and genuine passion to every family I work with. Throughout my career, I have taught 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th grades and have served in school leadership roles. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of child development, learning, behavior, and how to create environments where children feel safe, supported, and successful. In addition to my professional career in education, I have provided babysitting and nanny services for more than 25 years. I have extensive experience caring for children from newborns through teenagers and am comfortable adapting to the unique needs of every age and stage. Excellent references are available upon request. Although my professional career has been in education and school leadership, I have continued providing childcare throughout the years because I truly enjoy working with children and supporting families. As I search for my next long-term leadership opportunity, I am excited to dedicate more of my time to caring for children—something that has always been one of the most rewarding parts of my life. Over the years, many of the children I've cared for have described me as "firm, fair, and fun"—and I truly believe all three can exist together. Parents have affectionately referred to me as the local "Super Nanny" and even "The Baby Whisperer," compliments that I cherish because they reflect the trust families place in me. My philosophy is simple: children thrive when they are loved, respected, and held to high expectations. I encourage kindness, good manners, personal responsibility, and respect for both others and their environment. I believe children should spend time outdoors, use their imagination, solve problems, and learn to work cooperatively with others—including their siblings. I create a warm, structured environment where children feel safe, capable, and confident while having plenty of fun along the way. Whether your family is looking for an occasional date-night sitter, a dependable nanny, homework support, or someone who can confidently care for multiple children, my goal is always the same: to provide exceptional care while giving parents complete peace of mind. I strive to become a trusted extension of your family and someone your children are excited to see each time I walk through the door.

In addition to childcare, I’m very comfortable assisting with household management tasks, anticipating parents’ needs, maintaining routines, and helping keep the home running smoothly. I also absolutely love pets and am very comfortable around animals. I have a valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and am comfortable traveling as needed. I also understand the importance of professionalism, discretion, and respecting families’ privacy, and I have previous experience working with high-profile families under confidentiality agreements. Excellent references are available upon request.

I’d love to connect and see if I might be a good fit for your family!

"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."
