Hi, Im Isabella a Sophomore at UCSB studying Environmental Studies. I’m offering child care and if needed light household care with it. I just started with UrbanSitter! I have worked with kids for around 3 years now. I’ve worked at the boys and girls club, science nights for elementary schools, teaching elementary students with Sprout Up, and have done babysitting before I would be a great tutor for pre-k to 3rd grade if wanted mostly in reading. I can do errands around the house as well depending on the task.

$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, I’m Danaly! I have about 2.5 years of childcare experience from my time working full-time as a Recreational Leader in my hometown (San Pablo). I’ve worked with kids of all ages, from toddlers (2.5 years) to teens (17 years), and I absolutely love creating fun, engaging activities for them. Arts and crafts are some of my favorite things to do with the kiddos, but I’m also happy to help out with homework or school projects. If needed, I can assist with pick-ups and drop-offs for school or extracurricular activities too. I also do not mind helping around the house if needed! Right now, I work as a Family Advocate, supporting young mothers and their babies under 5. I’m also CPR/AED Certified and 100% pet friendly, so your little ones (and fur babies) will always be in good hands. I’d love to bring my experience, creativity, and care to your family!

Danaly was a super helpful and fun with my kids (12yrs old and 6yrs old). I feel like she really got to know my kids and created a bond with them.

$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m Meagan, I am a person who is passionate about caring for and teaching young children from infants through age 5. I have 23 years of child care experience. I am CPR and first aid certified, I am a creative and active person who enjoys helping children explore the world through art, music, outdoor activities, and sensory play. I have 72 units of early childhood education including infant and toddler development courses. I’m fluent in English. I also speak Spanish, some Portuguese and a little bit of French. I enjoy watching children explore the world around them and conquer the challenges life puts on their paths. My care taking style is play based because I believe children experience the world best when they are actively engaged in playing, exploring and using their imaginations to create new experiences for themselves. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask me. I look forward to speaking with you soon! Respectfully, Meagan

Meagan is an amazing childcare provider. She started working with us when my son was 11 months old. She really helped him develop in so many ways. Meagan helped us transition from co-sleeping to sleeping on his own in crib without needing to be breathed or rocked to sleep. He started walking around 12 months and running all around by 13-14 months). Meagan is very knowledgeable. She helped us childproof our home and gives us so many great recommendations on anything can think of (e.g., best sippy cups, shoes etc). She knows about sleep schedule, wake windows, eating solids you name it! And if she doesn't know she will research and find out. Just like she did helping us teach him French. Our son knows many site words, alphabet, counting 1-20 in English and French by 15 months. Meagan helped him learn while having fun. Meagan also takes him out to explore and socialize with other kids (playground, children's gym, story time at library etc). This I am sure has helped his learning and development. She supports his emotional development, she is so patient and when he tantrums helps him sooth, models adaptive coping skills, and names feelings. As he has aged and is currently 5 years old a in school now, Meagan still supports our family with babysitting for special occasions and date night. She’s demonstrated skills with him at each age of his development from infant, toddler, to preschooler and now school age. She fun and connects well with him, he loves her. But she is has consistent routines and holds boundaries to ensure his safety and care. She also is knowledgeable about child development sharing resources and information. She also knows the east Bay Area well and shares engaging resources and activities to do with him. Meagan is all around amazing. She’s consistent and reliable as well as kind and thoughtful person. I highly recommend.

Delilah Richmond
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Delilah, and I am a dedicated and compassionate nanny with several years of hands-on childcare experience. I spent one year working as a nanny at Tiny Giants San Francisco, where I supported children in a nurturing, structured, and engaging environment before transitioning into private nannying. In addition to my childcare background, I work as a medical receptionist at a clinic and am currently a pre-nursing medical student at Contra Costa College. I also hold an Associate’s degree from San Francisco State University, which has strengthened my communication, organization, and responsibility skills—qualities I bring into every family I work with. I truly love working with children and take pride in creating a safe, loving, and positive space where they can learn, grow, and feel supported. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling and spending time with my Aussiedoodle, Bruno, who often joins me on my adventures. Caring for others is not just a job for me—it’s a passion, and I find so much joy in building meaningful connections through my career as a nanny.

Rakshya 1 review
El Cerrito
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi parents, I am Rakshya Nepal Mom of twin boys . I have been working with family from 2016 but took a break once I had my own . Now they are off to school and I have more time to help family that need support. I am New to this sitter app and looking forward to join you, I am available to help you and family with anything and everything. Courses on Early Childhood Development Strong communication and patience Creative activity planning Basic cooking and nutrition awareness Emergency response and problem-solving Time management and responsibility No allergies . Fully vaccinated . And open and can adapt to your way of parenting

I’m happy to recommend Rakshya as a nanny. She has been wonderful with our child and brought such a calm, positive energy into our home. Rakshya spent time reading books, which our child really enjoyed, and it helped encourage learning and imagination. She is very patient—never annoyed, always smiling, and she speaks so politely and kindly. Our child felt comfortable and happy around her. We never asked her to do any specific things but she did everything on her own. She was also always on time and very reliable, which made things much easier for us as parents. One time, my husband didn’t wake up when she arrived, and instead of leaving, she patiently waited for 45 minutes. That really showed her dedication and responsibility. We always knew we could count on her, and we truly appreciated her caring nature. I would definitely recommend Rakshya to any family looking for a caring, dependable, and gentle nanny.
