Hello family! My name is Hildy. I’m a fun-loving, experienced nanny with over 10 years of childcare experience and CPR/First Aid certification. I enjoy being part of a child’s everyday world helping them learn, play, and feel safe and supported. I have taken early childhood education courses, incorporate Montessori methods, and have worked as an assistant to an after school teacher. I also have experience with children of different ages and needs, including ADHD, high-functioning autism (I’m familiar with IEP accommodations), and food allergies. I’m very mindful of safety and provide healthy meals or snacks. In addition to childcare, I also have experience in elderly care and companionship, which has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and compassion. I’m dependable, punctual, calm, patient, and I support families with routines, school drop-offs and pick-ups, activities, meal prep, errands, and light housekeeping. I find caregiving to be a rewarding and fulfilling career, and I’m truly honored to be a part of a child’s growth and development.
Hi! My name is Viktoriia. I currently work in a daycare with children aged 1.5–5 years old. I am caring, patient, and attentive, and I always make sure children feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I enjoy doing arts and crafts, especially drawing, and engaging kids in creative and age-appropriate activities. I pay close attention to cleanliness, hygiene, and safety, and I always follow routines and parents’ instructions.
As an aunt and caregiver, I love working with families and their children! I have worked as a day camp counselor, swim teacher, newborn and young child nanny, as well as volunteer with programs like Jasper Ridge Farm and CASA. My favorite part about working with kids and babies is getting to know their individual personalities, as each one is so different! I particularly enjoy and excel at working with kids under the age of five, including newborns and infants. I would say my general approach is to provide fun, creative, and engaging care, with *a lot* of patience and communication. I also believe in gently reaffirming boundaries and doing our best to stick to your child's individual routine. I hope to promote a sense of confidence, creativity, and security in the children I provide care for. I have been infant CPR certified within the last 2.5 years, and will be renewing asap. I have also been lifeguard certified and am more than happy to get re-trained if your child has access to a private pool.
“Shelby has cared for our almost-3yo daughter several times from infant through toddler stages. I’m always impressed at her ability to meet her at her level over time. She is always engaged with her when they are together, bringing lots of fun and energy while also maintaining boundaries. I would highly recommend.”
Hi! My name is Yoselyn, and I am a responsible, caring, and dependable childcare provider with 2 years of experience working in a licensed family daycare, caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. I enjoy creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment where children can learn, play, and thrive. I am a native Spanish speaker with conversational English skills and am certified in Pediatric First Aid, CPR, and AED. Families describe me as patient, trustworthy, organized, and attentive to children’s needs. I love helping children learn, grow, and feel confident while providing reliable and compassionate care. I am happy to assist with child-related tasks, including preparing simple meals and snacks, keeping children’s areas clean and organized, tidying play spaces, and supporting daily routines. Families can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and committed to creating a safe, warm, and supportive environment for their children.
Hi! My name is Sofia, and I am currently offering my services for childcare, senior care, and animal care. I have worked with children in some capacity or another for over 10 years, including as a social worker, higher education professional, horseback riding teacher, and camp counselor. I have extensive experience in caretaking for children ages 4 and up and lots of animals, too! I enjoy crafting, spending time outdoors, and being a supportive and positive presence for children of all ages. I am happy to help with homework if needed and light household chores. I am also comfortable with some degree of senior care and have experience caring for those with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. I hold my bachelor's degree from the University of San Francisco, am currently earning a professional coaching certification, and happy to provide my resume and references if needed.
“Sofia is kind, prompt, and responsible. She always goes above and beyond. She is also very communicative.”

"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."
