Abeer $26 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I'm Abeer, a mother of two, aged 15 and 17, offering childcare services. I especially enjoy caring for children aged 1-3, as they bring me happiness and calm. What sets me apart from other babysitters is my ability to teach simple Arabic words, comfort crying children, and engage them with educational games. I previously babysat my friend's child, who was 2-3 years old, for two years. During that time, I helped him learn new Arabic words and enhanced his speaking and listening skills. I am joyful, caring, easygoing, attentive, organized, cautious, bilingual, and unfortunately, allergic to cats and dogs.

Seraphina $25 per hour for 1 child

hi! my name is Seraphina, I'm an artist and caregiver. I have a deep love for early childhood education, and learning each child's unique personality and forms of expression. My background started as a k-5 Arts Educator at several afterschool programs, which I've done for the past four years in San Francisco. Ive taught a range of mediums including sewing, fiber arts, painting, clay and ecological art. I've also taken these skills and lead enrichment programs for kindergarteners at Malcom X Acadamy. In the past 2 years Ive been working part time at a preschool called Ducks Nest in Oakland with children from the ages of 2-5. Nannying, babysitting, and teaching are all experiences I've integrated into my childcare work the past 5 years and beyond. It is an honor to contribute to the care and support of any child's life, and I'm excited to continue to do so in my career. I also have experience with children and adults with disabilities. Both of my parents have worked in these fields and are social workers. This has been a big part of my upbringing. Overall, Im a calm, patient and compassion person with abundant creative practices that I love to connect with children through. I have a lot of excitement for their processes and want to support their curiousities and play. I also want to lighten the load of any parents/families in need, and to be of service in the areas that are most valuable.

"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)."
