Hi there! I'm Brittany- a third generation San Francisco native and USF graduate with a degree in Sociology. Growing up in a big family, I know firsthand how busy life can get, and am always happy to jump in and lend a helping hand wherever I can :) I’ve been working with children for over a decade through childcare, tutoring, and volunteer work. I’m experienced with all ages (infants to preteens), and love engaging with kids through arts & crafts, music, outdoor play, and creative activities. In recent years, I stepped away from UrbanSitter to care for an aging relative, but am excited to connect with more wonderful families. My schedule is fairly flexible, so feel free to reach out- I’d love to hear from you!

Brittany took care of our 2 year old daughter while we were out. She was prompt, friendly, and got along well with our daughter. She put her to bed with no problem. We would definitely hire Brittany again!

Hi! My name is Karina, I am a part time nanny, part time elementary school art teacher, and a part time musician. I’ve been nannying the same kids for 6 years now, and it’s my biggest joy. However; I’m looking for some occasional extra hours. Would love to help your family out and watch your kids so you can go out and enjoy a date night, or even give you just sometime to yourself. I have been babysitting and nannying kids for 15 years now, and nothing really makes me happier.

Booked by 1 family in Mill Valley, CA

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!
