Booked by 7 families in Stanford, CA

I’m a 26-year-old nanny with over two years of experience as an au pair and several years working with families throughout the Bay Area. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged kids and I’m currently getting certified as a postpartum doula. I studied law in Brazil and occasionally help my mom with her law firm, which has strengthened my organization, responsibility and communication skills. I’m fluent in Portuguese and English, speak basic Spanish and I used to play soccer in Brazil, which helps me bring fun, energy and active play into my caregiving. I’m caring, reliable, and dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing and engaging environment where children can thrive.

“Dominick arrived on time, and my 7yo and 9yo boys had lots of fun with her! When my husband arrived home, they were flying paper airplanes together. We would love to have her back!”

Angelina $30 per hour for 1 child

I truly enjoy spending time with children and creating a safe, caring, and fun environment where they can learn, play, and feel comfortable. Over the years I have gained experience working with kids of different ages. I worked for two years as a children’s activity animator in a tourist village with children ages 5–12. I also spent two years as an au pair in California, one year as an au pair in Belgium, and one year as a nanny in Austria. Currently I study psychology and child development, which helps me better understand children’s emotions and development. In the past few months I have also been babysitting part-time for several families. Through my experience as an au pair, I am comfortable cooking, helping with light housekeeping, organizing the home, and supporting families with daily routines. I can speak four languages fluently, and I also have some knowledge of Spanish. I can drive, i am responsible, patient, and attentive, and I value positive and supportive environment. Thank 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."

"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."
