Liz $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a 34yo Certified Montessori Teacher from ages zero to six, with over 5 years of experience of childcare in the States (4 years as a Montessori lead guide in a Toddler Community ) and over 8 in my home country, Colombia. I am organized, creative and kind. I respect children and their minds, and enjoy being their company and guide while they discover the world through experience and joy. And as a plus, I was born and raised in Colombia, so I speak Spanish fluently!

Booked by 3 families in Albany, CA

I'm the oldest daughter in my family, which meant I started caring for my younger siblings and cousins from an early age, and it's where my love for kids truly began. That experience taught me patience, responsibility, and how to keep things fun even on busy days. I'm an active nature lover, and I bring that passion into how I care for kids. I love finding creative ways to keep children engaged and connected to the outdoors, whether that's reading together in the park, going on nature walks, or planning day camping trips. I believe some of the best learning happens outside. I'm also pet-friendly and comfortable caring for animals alongside children, and I take pride in keeping a clean, organized home environment. Families can count on me to bring warmth, structure, and a genuine love of kids into their household.

Asmayt was fantastic! She arrived on time, was great with my kids, and they even asked when she was coming back after she left because they were sad for her to leave. I highly recommend her!

Andria $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Andria, and I’m originally from San Francisco and now residing in the East Bay. I come from a large, family-oriented background where I’ve spent years caring for children of all ages, which naturally led me to expand my services into professional childcare, pet care, and household support. I’m dependable, nurturing, and very hands-on. I take pride in creating a safe, positive, and organized environment whether I’m caring for children, assisting seniors, or helping maintain a home. I’m also great with pets and comfortable managing multiple responsibilities at once.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
