Booked by 8 families in American Canyon, CA

Hi! I’m Chanelle! 🩷 I’ve always loved working with kids and have experience caring for children of all ages. I’ve worked part-time at a daycare, nannied for children with special needs, and have a degree in Early Childhood Development. I’m patient, caring, and love getting to know each child’s personality. I enjoy being hands-on, keeping kids entertained, and helping them learn and grow along the way. I understand that every child is different, and I love being able to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also a huge animal lover and have three pets of my own, so furry family members are always welcome! I know how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for your children, and I’d love to be someone your family can trust and rely on. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!

“Chanelle helped us during a holiday party managing way more children than I'd expected, then when everyone left she got four children to bed without an issue. Grace under pressure and warm and fun. Thankful for this site that has helped me find sitters like Chanelle!”

Booked by 4 families in American Canyon, CA

Hi families- My name is Lhamo I’m a nurturing and dependable nanny with over 7 years of experience caring for infants and toddlers. Supporting little ones through their early stages of growth is truly my passion, and I feel honored to be part of those special milestones. I have hands-on experience with newborn care, feeding, introducing solids, diapering, potty training, sleep routines, and encouraging early learning and development. I love creating a calm, structured, and loving environment where children feel safe, happy, and confident to explore the world around them. Story time, sensory activities, music, and outdoor walks are some of my favorite ways to engage little ones. I’m patient, reliable, and value open communication with parents so we can work together as a team. I also love pets and am very comfortable around animals, so furry family members are always a bonus! My goal is to become a long-term, trusted support for your family and a warm, positive presence in your child’s life. I look forward to connecting with you! 😊

“Lhamo did an amazing job watching our 8 month old baby girl. She is so kind and patient. She was able to jump in and play with our daughter and get her to sleep. ”

I am a loving, caring, and a responsible nanny. I can work with any age children, willing to travel and stay over when necessary. I’ve been nannying for 30years of experience. I am looking for Monday- Thursday.

“Josefina was wonderful with our 8 month old baby; she's helped us here and there since he was 3-4 months and always has been an incredible help. She's experienced, attentive, warm and our son adored her. She helped with all the baby food, laundry and cleaning / organizing his room with much love.”

I’m a kind, loving, caring, and compassionate person who truly enjoys being around children. I have 2 years of experience caring for children from infants to toddlers. I’m comfortable with changing diapers, bottle feeding, bathing, putting children down for naps, taking them out for walks, and keeping them safe, happy, and engaged. I’m also happy to help keep their space clean and organized, including cleaning up after playtime and doing the children’s laundry. I’m patient, understanding, and attentive to each child’s needs. I especially love caring for babies and creating a warm, nurturing, and comfortable environment where they feel safe and cared for. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust, and I would be happy to provide your little one with loving and dependable care.

"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)."
