Hello, My name is Vania. I am looking for a part time job on the weekends or weekday evenings :) I have three years of experience supporting families. I hold a college degree and maintain current CPR Training. I look forward to hearing from you!

Vania helped out while our regular nanny was out. She was on time, flexible (changing hours, meeting at the park instead of house), and great with the kids.

Hi! I am Julie and am a teacher and am from Colombia. I currently watch a 8 year old and 5 year old, but have been with her since she was born. I am looking for a part time job on my mornings (9:00 to 1:30) and do well with kids of all ages. I am a good driver . I can prepare meals, pack lunches and head to the park, take the children to museums and overall I ensure they’re happy and tired enough to get a good nights sleep! I am helpful with laundry. Being a former teacher I often teach reading and writing and love to play learning games to help kids accelerate their Spanish and school readiness overall.

Hello, my name is Ginna , I’m 32 years old, and I live in Pacific Heights. I have over seven years of experience caring for babies and toddlers, including nanny share arrangements, and I’ve had the joy of working with several wonderful families across the Bay Area. I’d be happy to provide excellent references upon request. With kids, I love planning engaging activities—playgrounds, walks, libraries, museums, and play dates if possible! I’m very familiar with local spots like Lafayette Park, Alta Plaza, Broadway Park, and Moscone Park, where little ones can play, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can grow and learn. I enjoy helping families establish routines that are not only consistent but also fun and educational. Families usually describe me as punctual, communicative, easy to talk to, honest, and reliable, which helps build a smooth and positive relationship with both children and parents. I’m bilingual (English and Spanish) and can naturally incorporate Spanish into activities if parents would like. I also help with children’s laundry, cleaning bottles, tidying toys, light meal prep, and other small tasks that support the family routine. I am CPR and First Aid certified, hold a valid driver’s license, and always bring patience, warmth, and a positive attitude to the job. I’d love the opportunity to meet your little one and learn how I can support your family. Best regards, Ginna

Ginna was great with our 3 month old. Punctual, kind, and very experienced.

Hi! My name is Lane. I’m a former au pair and live-in nanny with over 4 years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and twins. I’m calm, responsible, punctual, and fully vaccinated.

I’m currently looking for full-time nanny or babysitting opportunities in San Francisco and nearby areas. Available in February/March 2026

Lane was awesome! Handled the bath and bedtime routine excellently, even when our son threw her some bedtime fighting curveballs. Also cleaned!! Can’t wait to use lane again

"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)."
