Booked by 2 families in Orinda, CA

Rate is negotiable for full tame or nearly full time positions depending on location and needs. Hi! I’m Diana — a licensed pedagogue with a Bachelor’s degree in Science of Education from Spain and over 8 years of experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I have worked as a caregiver and a teacher, supporting children not only with daily care but also with learning, routines, emotional development, and tutoring when needed. I have experience with newborns at nightime and daytime as needed. Also experienced in sleep training and potty training. In the U.S., I have 2 years of preschool teaching experience, 1 year teaching high school, and I currently teach a combined Kindergarten–1st grade classroom. I’m patient, nurturing, organized, and very attentive to children’s individual needs. I also have experience with household support and helping during events, and I’m comfortable working with families in different settings. I speak English, Spanish, Russian, and Ukrainian, and I love creating a safe, calm, and engaging environment where children feel cared for and confident.

“Diana was such a blessing for our family and our infant. She has a wonderful background in child development, she is extremely reliable, and has a calm, even temperament and nurturing nature. Diana was so helpful in working with our child to achieve better naps and worked on light sleep training to get our baby's sleep in a better place. Our child was all smiles every time for Diana. Diana learned our child and their needs very quickly and knew when to have active, stimulating time, when to work on developmental things such as tummy time or sitting, and when to be calm. Diana was very neat and always helped to clean up after herself and our child and always had a smile on her face. Diana felt like family by the end of our time together and I 100% trusted her with our child and in our home. Should we ever need her services again, we would not hesitate to reach out to Diana again. Thank you Diana, we miss you!”

"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."
