Hi there, I’m Danaly! I have about 2.5 years of childcare experience from my time working full-time as a Recreational Leader in my hometown (San Pablo). I’ve worked with kids of all ages, from toddlers (2.5 years) to teens (17 years), and I absolutely love creating fun, engaging activities for them. Arts and crafts are some of my favorite things to do with the kiddos, but I’m also happy to help out with homework or school projects. If needed, I can assist with pick-ups and drop-offs for school or extracurricular activities too. I also do not mind helping around the house if needed! Right now, I work as a Family Advocate, supporting young mothers and their babies under 5. I’m also CPR/AED Certified and 100% pet friendly, so your little ones (and fur babies) will always be in good hands. I’d love to bring my experience, creativity, and care to your family!
“Danaly was a super helpful and fun with my kids (12yrs old and 6yrs old). I feel like she really got to know my kids and created a bond with them.”
I am an experienced professional nanny and pediatric sleep coach. I am available to support your busy family with a variety of childcare needs, from newborn care to after school support, date nights or sleep coaching. I am trained in child development, newborn care (NCS), pediatric sleep coaching, preschool Montessori teaching. I take excellent care for your child emphasizing safety, development, and learning. I am resourceful and reliable, a driver with car, CPR/ First Aid trained and vaccinated.
I’ve always enjoyed taking care of kids. My brother is nine years younger than me, so I grew up co-raising him. From feeding to changing diapers, to putting little folks to sleep - the foundational experience is there. I also had pets growing up so I took on a that responsibility as well. As time has gone on, people friends and family have asked me to babysit. I’d describe myself as fun and energetic, and I love helping kids have a great time while also learning and growing.
Hi! I’m a caring, patient, and energetic caregiver who genuinely loves working with kids. I have experience with children of all ages and personalities, and I always aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and included. I currently work at an after-school program, which has helped me build strong skills in staying organized, keeping kids engaged, and handling different situations calmly. I also volunteer on some Sundays at a children’s ministry at church, where I usually work with toddlers—so I’m very comfortable with younger kids as well! In my free time, I enjoy staying active and being outdoors, and I like bringing that same fun, positive energy when I’m with kids—whether that’s playing games, helping with homework, or just keeping them entertained and happy. I’m reliable, easygoing, and someone parents can trust to take great care of their kids while making sure they have a good time too!
“Very professional and great w small children”
Grew up taking care of my younger sister while both my parents worked long hours. Worked for healthcare system backoffice software for the last decade. Looking to make a bigger community impact and help real people outside the healthcare system. I'm extremely patient and work well with all sorts of personalities, albeit I can be a little bit awkward sometimes. I love fixing things and getting into the details. Always happy to listen to people's stories.

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
