Constanza $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi My name is Constanza, and I’m currently a student at Skyline College. I’ve worked as an au pair for the past two years, caring for three children, aged 6 months, 2 years, and 4 years old. My responsibilities have included managing their schedules, preparing meals, teaching them Spanish, and organizing fun activities like trips to the park. I’m passionate about working with children and creating a supportive and educational environment for them. I also love taking care of pets, especially dogs, and have experience providing household assistance. I’m flexible, reliable, and always ready to help families in need of childcare or household support.

Isabella $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m currently a student studying Disability Studies and I also work as a Registered Behavior Therapist. I’ve been working with kids for over 10 years, and it’s something I truly love :) I enjoy creating a fun and positive space where kids can be themselves and. Every child is so unique, and I love getting to know their personalities and what makes them light up. A little about me—I’m someone who loves adventure, being outdoors, trying new foods, and meeting new people. I’m all about finding joy in the little things and bringing that same energy into the families I work with. Whether it’s crafts, games, outdoor play, or simply being a dependable and caring presence, I love making meaningful connections with both kids and parents. I genuinely value every new family I meet and feel lucky to be part of their world, even in small ways!

Hi everyone! My name is Anne and I graduated from Oregon State University in 2021 with a Bioengineering degree and working in biotech! I am offering child care, pet care, and household services.

“Anne is amazing! She helped with my 9 year old and 12 year old with afternoon jobs as well as occasional evenings, including driving my daughter to soccer practices all over Marin. She is reliable, bright, kind and has a lot of fun with kids. We would absolutely hire Anne again and recommend her while-heartedly.”

"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."

"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)."
