Hello! I’m Tyriana, a mom with kids of my own and one dog. I know how much trust it takes to leave your kids, pets, or home with someone, and I take that seriously.

Booked by 2 families in Port Costa, CA

Hi! My name is Sophia. I have over 4 years of experience working with families in both childcare and house manager roles. I’m CPR certified, dependable, organized, patient, and very hands-on. I love creating a safe and fun environment for kids while also helping parents keep the household running smoothly. My experience includes caring for children of different ages, school pickup and transportation, homework help, meal prep, bedtime routines, laundry, organizing, grocery shopping, household errands, light housekeeping, pet care, and helping manage day-to-day routines. I’m also very active and love getting kids outside for walks, parks, games, and other activities instead of always relying on screen time. I currently work part time at Trader Joe’s, which has made me even stronger with communication, multitasking, food knowledge, and working efficiently. I also have a strong eye for detail and naturally notice what needs to be done around a home without always needing to be asked. I have a clean driving record, reliable transportation, CPR certification, and I’m comfortable with pets. I’m looking for families who want someone trustworthy, warm, responsible, and genuinely invested in making their lives a little easier. I’m available for recurring childcare, occasional babysitting, and family assistant/house manager positions.

Booked by 4 families in Port Costa, CA

Hi families- My name is Lhamo I’m a nurturing and dependable nanny with over 7 years of experience caring for infants and toddlers. Supporting little ones through their early stages of growth is truly my passion, and I feel honored to be part of those special milestones. I have hands-on experience with newborn care, feeding, introducing solids, diapering, potty training, sleep routines, and encouraging early learning and development. I love creating a calm, structured, and loving environment where children feel safe, happy, and confident to explore the world around them. Story time, sensory activities, music, and outdoor walks are some of my favorite ways to engage little ones. I’m patient, reliable, and value open communication with parents so we can work together as a team. I also love pets and am very comfortable around animals, so furry family members are always a bonus! My goal is to become a long-term, trusted support for your family and a warm, positive presence in your child’s life. I look forward to connecting with you! 😊

“Lhamo did an amazing job watching our 8 month old baby girl. She is so kind and patient. She was able to jump in and play with our daughter and get her to sleep. ”

Susie $40 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Port Costa, 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)!

"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."
