Booked by 2 families in Palomar Mountain, CA

Hello Parents, My name is Biftuu, and I’m a 34-year-old nanny with a deep passion for working with children and pets. Since relocating here from Ohio, I’ve had the joy of working with many wonderful families, caring for children ranging from newborns and infants to school-age kids. Moving here was a big step—I left behind a large, close-knit family of 10 siblings, where I was the go-to “mommy’s little helper.” From a young age, I was changing diapers and helping with my younger siblings, which sparked my love for caregiving. As I grew older, my enthusiasm for working with children only deepened. I volunteered at my community library as a tutor and reading program coordinator during the summers, and throughout high school, I served as a teacher’s aide for pre-K through middle school. These experiences taught me that children come into the world with boundless potential and that I have a role in nurturing their growth, both academically and emotionally. In addition to my extensive experience with children, I also have years of experience in pet boarding and house sitting. This background has equipped me with the skills to handle various household responsibilities and ensure your pets receive the care and attention they deserve. Working as a nanny allows me to focus on a small number of children, providing personalized care and helping to shape their lives with positive habits, creativity, and lots of laughter. I believe in creating a supportive and loving environment where children can thrive and develop important life skills. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and discuss how I can contribute to your child’s development and well-being. Feel free to reach out—I look forward to hearing from you! Warm regards, Biftuu

Booked by 25 families in Palomar Mountain, CA

Hi, I’m Melanie. I am a dedicated childcare professional and educator with a Bachelor’s degree in Child and Family Development and a state-issued teaching permit. My background is rooted in early childhood education, and I have spent years in various settings, from running my own preschool classroom to working in specialized schools with children who have autism and other disabilities. Because of my additional training in school counseling, I am especially focused on emotional regulation and helping children feel secure and heard, no matter their age or needs. I know how stressful it can be to find someone you truly trust with your children, which is why I prioritize clear communication and consistency. I am proud to have built a reputation here on the app with positive reviews and the opportunity to work with nine repeat families. I also have extensive experience supporting families long-term, including a wonderful five-year placement with one family before they moved out of state, and I take pride in building those lasting, reliable relationships. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have a clean background, and have a current negative TB test. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing, and fun environment so you can feel completely at ease whenever you are away. I would love to connect, and talk more to answer questions.

"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."
