I am an experienced childcare provider with five years of experience as a preschool teacher, and five years of experience as a nanny in families homes. I love to plan fun art activities, spend time outside exploring the natural world and teaching kids the names of different plants, and reading stories.

I have an Early Childhood Education Associate Teacher certificate from Merritt College as well as a bachelors degree in Gender Studies from Mills College.

Booked by 5 families in Piedmont, CA

Hi! My name is Felix and I am a Berkeley Law student and longtime nanny / house helper. I have over 10 years of work and life experience with caregiving. Showing care and attention to others (humans and animals!) is the most fulfilling way to spend my time. My experiences include nannying newborns and babysitting children ages 1-12, attending to senior relatives, tutoring k-6 and teaching elementary school garden class, driving for school and appointments, and cleaning homes. I’ve also had pet cats all my life and love to care for others’ furry friends when needed. I am extremely detail-oriented in the home. I love to engage and connect to all kinds of people and provide reliable care for families, and I am happy to provide references upon request! I offer cooking, cleaning, errands requiring driving, enriching play activities for babies and homework help for older children. I am CPR certified and vaccinated. I am reliable, genuine, and always excited to meet families and neighbors who could use an extra pair of hands.

Booked by 74 families in Piedmont, CA

Hello! My name is Erica and I've been watching children beginning with my little sister when I was in jr. high. Since then I have babysat children of all ages. I have worked at preschools and have taken classes in early childhood development. I taught my own class of 3 year olds, but have served as an aide in classes ranging from infant to 5 years. I am a fully licensed cosmetologist & work as a hairstylist at a salon in Berkeley. I love children of all ages and they tend to love me. I'm a child at heart and enjoy singing, art, going outside, and just having fun. In my free time, I enjoy reading, watching movies and tv shows, exploring the outdoors, and cooking.

Erica is great! My son took right to her. He was immediately comfortable. She was patient and gentle!

Booked by 35 families in Piedmont, CA

Hello there! My name is Paloma and I have over 25 years of experience working with kids of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I truly love working with all ages in a variety of settings. I worked professionally as an elementary school garden teacher and outdoor educator for many years, and as a nanny for many years as well. I am also the eldest of six siblings, who now have children of their own, so childcare just comes naturally to me. What is most important for me about working with kids is providing a loving space for them to have creative fun and develop a sense of connection. I’m good at everything from imaginative play to homework time to dinner and bed time. I especially love to get outside with kids. Back on Urban Sitter after some years away, always nice to help out here!

Paloma took great care of our 7 mo old daughter, and was prompt, responsive and thoughtful. We’d work with her again!

Booked by 31 families in Piedmont, CA

Hello, my name is Ky’Aira and I think I am a great fit for your family! I am 28 and went to Northridge State and moved to Sacramento to get more teaching experience. While I was a teacher there, I taught infants up to 5 year olds. Many families that I bonded with became family and would contact me for watching their child. I became apart of these families and would come to birthdays or just come over on weekends to hang. I thing it’s important to stimulate their minds and bodies. I enjoy creating art and sensory activities for younger children and also anything in a kitchen! Going outside and playing is something that will never be missed because I enjoy outside play and exploring the world around us! I do have teaching background so their will be something to learn throughout basic activities during the day. Putting children to sleep I’ve been told I’m a pro since I am very observant of the body language and needs that child may need to help them sleep. I am more of an academic nanny in the sense of everything we do has a learning component and enjoying independent play to explore their imagination and creativity. I also am very organized and cleaning meaning if you need me to help with anything extra I probably already have done it or would love to help! I have worked with multiple families as a full time nanny and am most knowledgeable with infants up until 3. If you hire me, whether it’s full time or sometimes your child will have an amazing time and you’ll receive pictures and videos during that time so you can see what your loved one is doing. Hoping to hear from you soon!

Kyaira was so great with my 2 year old! So friendly, so professional! IMO the perfect babysitter!
