Hi – My name is Lara and I’m a professional nanny with over 6 years of experience caring for children from infants to pre-teens. I’m CPR certified, bilingual in English and Portuguese, and passionate about creating safe, nurturing, and fun environments where kids can thrive. I’ve worked with families in Woodside, Menlo Park, Redwood City, and Portola Valley, providing everything from daily care to overnight stays while parents travel. My responsibilities have included driving to and from school, organizing playdates, helping with homework, preparing healthy meals, and planning creative activities. I love supporting children’s emotional growth, encouraging independence, and making each day both safe and enjoyable. I can also assist with light household tasks and am happy to provide great references from the families I’ve worked with.
Hi! My name is Evie and I am 21 years old. I am a student at Cañada College majoring in Social Work. My passions include working with kids, art, and cooking. My five years of professional childcare experience include working summer camps, being a teachers assistant, working at two daycares, babysitting, and tutoring. I have worked with kids of all ages. When I show up for work I will always show up prepared. I often will plan crafts and activities that the kiddo will like. In the past I've taken my kiddos to the park. I am happy to cook, clean, and provide transportation regularly or as needed. I also am happy to help with homework. I have a safe car and a clean driving record. I hope you consider me as an option to be your babysitter!
I love being a grandmother and taking care of my grandkids. I love doing arts and crafts with my kids. It makes me happy to see them creating and thriving in this way.

"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."
