Booked by 5 families in South San Francisco, CA

Hello! I am a former legal assistant turned preschool teacher. I started babysitting at the age of 15 for family, family friends, and neighbors. I was a nanny for four years here in San Francisco so that gave me great experience with the newborn, baby, and toddler stages. It was a wonderful experience and I still keep in touch with the amazing family. Since then, I have nannied for two more families. What I enjoy most about spending time with kids is having the chance to see the energy and excitement children display when they are learning and honoring how they wonder. It also helps that I have a broad appreciation of a variety of subjects and it can be fun to learn things together. In my free time, I like to read, jog, and cook!

“Rocio is so sweet and reliable. Our 6 month old daughter just lights up when she sees her and I feel completely at ease leaving her with Rocio. She is gentle, courteous and professional. My only hesitation in writing this is that she will become popular with other families and won't have time for us.”

Hi, I’m Lua. I’m a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) with CPR training and over 6 years of experience working with families in California. For the past year, I’ve been caring for a little girl who is now 2 years old — I started when she was 11 months. Being part of her daily routine and development during this stage has been very meaningful to me. I also have long-term experience with infants, twins, and siblings, and I’m grateful to still be in touch with the families I’ve worked with. I’m responsible, calm, and attentive, and I truly care about providing a safe and nurturing environment. Available to start in late March or April.

“We feel incredibly lucky to have had Luana as part of our family over the past year. She cared for our daughter from 11 months old through her 2nd birthday, and we truly cannot imagine a better caregiver. Luana is everything you hope for in a nanny. Loving, warm, patient, and deeply attentive. Our daughter adores her, and it was clear every day how genuinely she cared. She created a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment that gave us complete peace of mind. We trusted her entirely, which is the greatest gift a parent can receive. She is consistently punctual, reliable, and professional, while also bringing so much heart to her work. Beyond exceptional childcare, she went above and beyond in helping our household run smoothly, assisting with laundry, meal prep, and other chores without ever being asked. Her proactive, thoughtful nature made such a difference in our daily lives. Luana has become such an important part of our family, and we are truly sad to see her go. Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her. We recommend her wholeheartedly and without hesitation.”

Hi! I’m Sofía Moreno from Colombia. I have more than 5 years of experience as a nanny, including 2 years in the United States, caring for children from 3 months to 7 years old. I truly enjoy spending time with kids and creating fun, engaging activities such as going to the playground, the beach, museums, or for walks. I also love painting, making crafts, dancing, and encouraging learning through games and creative activities. Additionally, I have a degree in language teaching and experience working with children from elementary through high school. I often apply pedagogical techniques to support children in their language development and help improve their speaking skills in a natural and enjoyable way. I would love the opportunity to talk with you and learn more about your family. Don’t hesitate to contact me!

Hi! My name is Bella, and I’m 27 years old with 11 years of experience caring for children from infants to tweens. I’ve also previously worked with young children as a youth soccer coach. I’m a fun, reliable, and kind sitter who would love to support your family with either occasional or routine care. I’m comfortable assisting with household tasks such as laundry, meal prep, light cleaning, and pet care, and I have my own car to help with transportation as needed. I work a corporate role in Digital Merchandising during the week (Monday–Friday) but am available on weekends, evenings, and occasionally during the day. I’d be happy to answer any questions and am open to scheduling a phone interview or meeting in person. Looking forward to connecting with you! 😊

I’m a recent graduate with a B.A. in Sociology from UCLA. I have experience with children ages ranging from 4 months to 13 years old. I absolutely adore kids and have worked with them all my life. I’m also a huge animal person. I grew up in Marin, where I went to Tam High, and just moved back to live in SF! My experience includes being a teacher at Stapleton Ballet Fantasy Summer Camp while I danced at the company before college, and during college, I worked at the UCLA Lab School as a teaching assistant for grades Pre-K thru 5th. So, I am definitely available to help with homework! I have babysat since I was 12 years old, and truly love doing it. I recently started a job as a teacher at the Town School for Boys within the Extended Day Program. I hope to pursue obtaining my credentials and continue my career in education.

“Kayla is always such a gem. She's always great with our kids (6yo and 4yo).”

"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."
