Hi, my name is Daniela, but you can call me Abby! ☺️ I’m a student at San Francisco State, holding an Associate's Degree in psychology, and I am currently pursuing my Bachelor's. I am fluent in Spanish and English, and I am a beginner in Portuguese and ASL. I am also CPR Certified! My passion has always been working with children. Which is why my major is Psychology, and I am looking forward to achieving my goal of becoming a speech pathologist. As the oldest daughter among my three younger siblings, I began caring for them from the time they were newborns until they reached toddler age. I worked as an after-school lead teacher for Transitional Kindergarten through 3rd grade for two years, which provided me with experience working with children aged 4-12 years old. I’ve gained knowledge in tutoring, crafting, and taking care of their emotional needs, as well as managing a daily schedule with 20+ kids at the same time. I currently have 9 ECE (Childcare) Credits for the following classes: - Child Development. - Children With Special Needs. - Strategies for Special Needs. Now I’m working as a Special Education Teacher Assistant with children of various ages, from preschool to Middle School, while also doing babysitting on the side. Thank you for allowing me to show love through my work! ☺️

Daniela did a great and thorough job cleaning the apartment!

*Fully vaccinated and boosted* Hi families! I am a professional nanny with 19+ years of child and pet care experience in the counties of Alameda, San Francisco, Santa Clara, San Mateo, and Santa Cruz. I am CPR certified and First Aid trained. I have experience working with over 100 unique families with children ages newborn through teen. I am comfortable supporting many different styles and routines for meals, play, education, hygiene, and sleep. I have experience supporting sleep training; solid starting; practicing milestones (rolling, sitting, crawling, walking); language development, including baby signing and speech therapy exercises; and potty training (including elimination communication with infants). In working with older kids, I have provided before/after school care, transportation, and academic/life skills support. I have stayed overnight with kids; joined families as a vacation nanny; supervised groups of children at events; and comforted many children with separation anxiety. I am confident that I can handle any situation professionally & safely. My favorite things to do with kids are playing outside, reading books, and doing projects/crafts. I love when kids talk about their thoughts & ideas and express their creativity in the activities we do together. I am able to set & enforce appropriate boundaries with children while getting on their level to be a fun, playful, nurturing caregiver. I am a certified Yoga Teacher (RYS-200) and trained in Wilderness First Aid (WFA). I would be happy to facilitate experiences involving yoga/meditation/local outdoor exploration! I am open to pet care, household and other services (see below). I graduated from Stanford University with a B.A. in Science, Technology, and Society (STS). In addition to my child care experience, I have 6+ years experience in the real estate industry, including sustainability, accessibility, and rehab / retrofit projects. I have managed projects with budgets from $0-100MM+.

"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."

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)."

Eric D., dad of two
