Hi! I’m Brianna, a dependable and attentive caregiver who genuinely enjoys building meaningful connections with children and families. I strive to create a calm, supportive environment where children feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while parents feel confident in the care their child is receiving. ✨ About Me • Bilingual in English & Spanish • CPR & First Aid Certified for adults and pediatrics • Pursuing a career in the medical field with a goal of becoming a doctor • I value treating children with kindness, patience, and respect 👶 Childcare Experience I’ve cared for children in both family and professional settings, including helping raise my three nieces since infancy, caring for neighbors’ children over 5 summers, and supporting a coworker’s three children over a 5-year span. I also worked as a YMCA soccer coach for 3 years with children ages 5–9, where I learned the importance of creating an encouraging and supportive environment for kids. 🩺 Additional Experience My background also includes CNA training, companion caregiving, and a hospital internship, which strengthened my ability to stay calm under pressure and communicate effectively with people of all ages. 🐱 Additional Note I have a significant cat allergy so I’m unfortunately unable to provide care in homes with cats. I recently relocated to the area and am excited to connect with local families!

I recently graduated San Jose State University in 2025 💙 I'm originally from Southern California! I have a variety of experience for ages 2 months to 12 years. I was a nanny for 2 girls for 3 years throughout college, and do many occasional jobs with multiple families. My style of childcare is hands on, such as doing arts and crafts, playing games, going to the playground. As well as helping out with homework, reading books and more. I enjoy getting to know the children personally and prefer no screen time. Throughout high school, I've gained experience working with children mainly through local church organizations. I'm a former overnight camp counselor for kids. I also grew up with two younger siblings which I took care of almost every day. I love working with kids of all ages, especially younger ones. I have a husky at home, so I am very comfortable with pets! I am fully vaccinated with a booster shot as well. I look forward to meeting you!
Hello. I have about 13 years of nanny experience and absolutely love working with children. I have extensive experience working with every age group ranging from newborns to teenagers and can provide wonderful references upon request.

"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."
