Hello! I'm a dedicated and loving nanny with 20 years of experience caring for children aged 2 months to 12 years in the Bay Area. Originally from New Zealand, I hold a National Nanny Certificate (NZNNC) and am certified in Infant/Child CPR & First Aid. I'm also Trustline certified. In addition to my nanny experience, I've worked in preschools, taught swimming lessons, and lifeguarded. I'm passionate about providing top-notch care and creating fun, engaging activities for kids. I'm familiar with baby sign language and enjoy arts and crafts, baking, and outdoor adventures. *Currently Seeking:* - Evening and weekend babysitting hours (flexible schedule) - Families who value honesty about health and are COVID-cautious, no sick child care. - Easy parking available for SF jobs (I live in Daly City) *About Me:* - As a mom of two teenagers (16 and 17), I've honed my skills in supporting kids' growth and development. - I enjoy activities like arts and crafts, walks, and trips to the beach. If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced nanny, I'd love to chat!
Hi there! I’m a warm, reliable caregiver with over 5 years of professional pediatric experience supporting children and families, along with many years of babysitting throughout college and beyond. My background in childhood development along with the many young children in my family have given me a strong understanding of children 6 months and beyond, along with how to support children’s emotional, social, and developmental needs at every stage. I believe in fostering play and curiosity while maintaining a safe and nurturing environment. Some of the activities I love are playing games, pretend play, music, and playing outside! I take great pride in being a caregiver that families are able to trust and rely on. I’d love the opportunity to connect with your family and I look forward to chatting!
Hello! I’m Celine. I was a dedicated nanny with 1 year of experience caring for children mainly less than 1 year old during my semester breaks and while I was pregnant. I graduated from Southern New Hampshire University with a Bachelors degree in Business administration but focusing on childcare after I had my baby. I was a full time stay at home mom seeking a full time or part time job to support my son. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing and fun environment for infants and children to feel loved and thrive. I understand that every family is unique, have their own communication and teaching style towards their children and I will make sure that we are on the same page. I look forward to connecting with your family and provide your little one the loving care they deserve! - CPR and First Aid Certified - Non-Smoker - Vaccinated (Covid, MMR, Chicken Pox, Hep B, Tdap) - Comfortable with Pets Regards, Celine
I grew up with 3 sisters and 2 brothers and we had dogs and cats. I played sports and first babysat at the age of 13. I love the beach and body surfing, I love to sing to the little ones and teach them songs, I like to have fun reading books, eating food, playing with just about anything (just a glass of ice water is entertainment for 30 minutes with a 15 month old-- yes, ice.. first it's solid and then magic-it disappears). I love to problem solve... or use the tool of distraction. And I do believe that "to every task that must be done there is an element of fun". I work part-time at the Ferry Building Book Passage and have been there for two and a half years, it's a great environment and I enjoy working with the public. There a lot of kids who come in on the weekends and I have fun getting to know them and what they like to read. I have been taking care of a year and a half boy for spurts this past year and it's been so much fun. We would go to the Main Library storytime for an outting and it was a real treasure. It is such a pleasure to work with kids, as they are so much in to the moment.
“Thank you so much for your help! Would definitely recommend Lorraine, she was wonderful.”
My name is Julia. I’m 28 years old and I have a bachelors in Early Childhood Development. I love children very much. I was a kindergarten teacher for years and an au pair in the US for six years working for two loving and amazing families In Mill Valley, CA. I am now a permanent citizen. I’m very comfortable with any age group. Have tons of experience with newborns as well! I have just moved back to the Bay Area after living in South Lake Tahoe for about a year. I am a very outdoorsy person and I love dogs, cats and reptiles! I am very organized, love fitting in some kitchen tidying up and laundry folding while the kids nap! Please make sure any overnight requests are made at least one week in advance. I was also a house manager for years for the same families I babysat, so I’m super comfortable with house sitting, dog sitting, tidying up the home, driving around to help you with errands and more :) feel free to lay on me all your needs and I can do my best to accommodate them. - willing to remove shoes, wear masks or any other personal family requirements you might have.
“Julia was great to work with! Quick to respond to texts and last minute changes and really flexible when our baby didn't go to bed as planned! She was also incredible creative with coming up with soothing techniques! Would definitely hire her again!”

"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."
