Booked by 11 families in San Francisco, CA

My name is Denisse a mission resident. I have 15 years of childcare experience and an extensive schooling and teaching background at Mission Cultural Center (after-school program), Precita Eyes (Assistant Mural Development), Katherine and Michael's (Summer camp). ¡También hablo español y love pets! I also have 5 years as Family assistance and can easily manage both tasks. I thoroughly focus on early speech, increasing vocabulary, motor skills, engaging in playful learning process, art projects, reading, math games, and lots of outdoor activities, encouraging Spanish verbalization as a second language and English vocabulary expansion. I have over 15 years of experience in education and childcare with infants, toddlers, and 7+ years old. I assisted with online classes and homework during the pandemic for two years in a nanny share position initially with two children and later added three more (siblings). I set goals for children's development based in their capabilities and interests. My previous achievements are: 1- Taught an 18-month-old child to speak over 50 words. 2 - Taught a five-year-old to play chess (after 4 years now, he has been in a chess club ever since, and is still passionate about it) 3- Taught a two-year-old art history by guiding execution, hands-on practice, bedtime stories, and continuous visits to the museum. (The Young and The MoMa Museum). Up today, he's capable of narrating +6 relevant stories from 21st-century contemporary artists. 4- Improved writing and reading skills in 7-year-olds through constant public visits to the library and engaging in fun quizzes and puzzles. 5- Generally, by observing a child's interest, and tailoring an engaging learning process with art, cooking, music, games, reading, outdoor, and swimming activities. Extensive experience with infants, reliable car, and CPR/First Aid certified. I look forward to answering any questions and learning more about your children and their needs.

Hi! I’m Camila, originally from Mexico, where I studied Psychology. I’ve had the opportunity to volunteer with children in vulnerable situations, including working in a refugee camp in Greece and in Belém do Pará, Brazil, near the Amazon. I also completed practical training in Chile and have hands-on experience caring for babies as young as 2 months and toddlers from 3 to 5 years old. I love working with children and enjoy creating meaningful, engaging activities inspired by the Montessori approach. I always make sure to clean up after activities and am happy to help with household tasks as needed. I’m passionate about art therapy, mental health, and making sure every child feels heard, valued, and loved. I consider myself calm and patient, but also energetic and playful when it comes to spending time with kids. While my long-term goal is to work with children in vulnerable situations, I’m currently focusing on improving my English to better support that dream. In the meantime, I genuinely enjoy working as a nanny and providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children.

“Camila is the best! warm, professional and wonderful with children of all ages (ours are 2 months and 4 yrs). we will definitely be booking her again!”

Booked by 14 families in San Francisco, CA

Hi! I’m a reliable, patient, responsible, and experienced nanny and caregiver with a genuine passion for caring for children and helping families create a happy, safe, and well-managed home environment. I’m able to respond quickly and creatively to challenging childcare situations while remaining calm, patient, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I believe children should have fun, but I also believe in creating opportunities for them to learn, explore, and develop their creativity. In addition to childcare, I’m an experienced tutor who has taught math and science. I’m happy to assist with homework, school projects, reading, and other educational activities. I enjoy keeping children engaged with age-appropriate learning activities rather than having them spend the entire day watching TV or playing on devices. I’m disciplined, dependable, personable, and a people person. I’m also comfortable preparing nutritious and delicious meals, as I genuinely enjoy cooking. Helping with meal preparation and maintaining a comfortable, organized home is something I take pride in. I’m nurturing, attentive, flexible, and willing to go the extra mile to support the families I work with. I understand that every family has different needs, and I’m happy to be flexible with schedules and stay longer when needed whenever possible. Most importantly, I care for children with the same patience, kindness, and attentiveness I would want for the children in my own family. I’m a sister, a friend, and an aunty, and caring for others comes naturally to me. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and learn more about your childcare needs. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Thank you, and I look forward to connecting with you!

“Mariah was wonderful to work with; she helped us for a few mornings with our two boys (infant and 4). She jumped right in, got them both out the door and still had time to clean. She knew the right things to ask in the boys routines, took initiative in organizing our mess (which we desperately needed) and was fun to chat with. We would hire her again ”

"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."
