daniela $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! 😃👋🏼 My name is Daniela, I am 33 years old and I currently work as a Pediatric Occupational Therapist with the Early Start program in San Andreas Regional Center. I have over 10 years of experience working with children from infancy through early childhood, supporting their development through play, routines, and nurturing care. My professional background has given me strong knowledge in child development, communication, emotional regulation, and age-appropriate activities. I truly enjoy creating a warm, safe, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable exploring, learning, and having fun. Throughout the years I have worked with families in different roles including nanny, developmental specialist, and early childhood caregiver. I understand the importance of trust, clear communication with parents, and respecting each family’s routines and values. Families often describe me as patient, attentive, responsible, and very intuitive with children’s needs. I am currently looking for occasional babysitting opportunities, especially on weekends. Whether you need a few hours for a date night, an event, or extra help during the weekend, I would be happy to support your family. My professional experience also allows me to incorporate meaningful play and activities that support children's development while keeping the environment relaxed and enjoyable. I speak Spanish, English, and Portuguese, and I am comfortable working with children of different ages and backgrounds. My goal is always to provide attentive care while helping children feel safe, happy, and engaged. Thank you for considering me. I look forward to connecting with your family! 🌈

Booked by 6 families in Newark, CA

I truly love being a nanny because I find it incredibly rewarding to be a part of a child's world and to support their growth. There's nothing like seeing a child's face light up when they finally master a puzzle, learn a new word, or show kindness to a sibling. I love building a trusting, one-on-one relationship where I can provide not just care, but also consistency, encouragement, and fun. To me, it's a privilege to help nurture curious, confident, and kind little people, and to be a reliable support for the whole. First and foremost, I am certified in Pediatric CPR and First Aid (mention if it's current). I also have training in infant safe sleep practices and child nutrition. In terms of practical skills, I'm very adept at creating age-appropriate learning activities, positive discipline techniques, and managing multiple children's schedules. I'm also a strong and clear communicator-I believe in providing detailed daily logs for parents and discussing any concerns openly. I'm patient, creative, and highly adaptable, which helps me connect with children and handle the unexpected moments.

"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."
