Angie $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Angie, and I'm a responsible, caring, and dependable caregiver with several years of experience working with children of all ages. I had currently worked a pre school, where I care for toddlers in a classroom setting, helping with learning activities, playtime, meals, naps, and creating a safe, nurturing environment. I'm also studying to become a nurse, which has strengthened my patience, responsibility, and commitment to children's well-being. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and love planning fun, engaging activities like arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, and educational games. I'm happy to help with homework, meal preparation, bedtime routines, light housekeeping, and pet care if needed. Families describe me as reliable, trustworthy, and attentive, and I always strive to make children feel safe, happy, and supported while giving parents peace of mind. I look forward to meeting your family!

$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in American Canyon, CA

I'm the mother of 4 adult children and 7 grandchildren, and I've been working as a nanny for 25 years. I especially enjoy taking care of babies, including in a share. I believe in providing a lot of love and affection, comforting children when they need it, and interacting with them to keep them engaged and stimulated. I enjoy taking children out for activities, to the park, library, and for walks. I can also help with developmental milestones, learning to move, walk, and potty train. I can do light cleaning around the house. I am from Guatemala, and speak Spanish and English. I have Infant CPR training, and am fully vaccinated, with a good driving record.

Nieves has been babysitting my 4-1/2 year old daughter regularly since she was 8 months old. She was amazing with her as a baby - patient and loving - and she's amazing with her now as a preschooler. She has many years of childcare experience, and it shows. My daughter looks forward to seeing her, and she's very engaged, singing, encouraging her latest skill, talking and joking with her. As a parent, I appreciate how reliable she is, always showing up on time, and how easy she is to have in my home when I'm there working.

Booked by 293 families in American Canyon, CA

Hi! My name is Christine, I am the oldest out of 5 children, with a mother who is a labor and delivery nurse--so I've grown up being taught about how to deal with children from a young age and have plenty of personal experience working with kids through my younger siblings, extended family, and previously being my church's Sunday school teacher. I also have over 10 years of professional childcare experience and have worked in varying capacities as a nanny, family assistant, children’s art class assistant and sitter. I am trustline certified along with taking childcare courses, have a valid driver’s license and have received cpr & first aid training. I enjoy hobbies like reading, writing, and music and love sharing these things with kids. I have been active on Urbansitter since 2016 and have had the pleasure of working with 100s of families within this time. • Also I am not allergic to any pets and have no issues working with families with friendly furry friends ☺️ *I typically have a 5 hour minimum* **rates vary based on distance and number of children **

Christine has a calm demeanor and my toddler warmed up to her right away. She was communicative and was very prepared taking my daughter to play in the park with both toys and snacks. Would definitely have her back!

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

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)."
