I am nany with years of experience I speak Spanish and intermediate level of English. I know how to cook and prepare snacks. I know drive car and I have a license. I have cpr certified. I have focused on Montessori education and respectful parenting. I am very clear that the most important thing is attention to your children, care and that they have moments of fun. I also understand the independence of some children and that others need a more sensitive caregiver who listens to them and is present in the moment. I am the childcare provider who is involved in play and activities.

Juliana $36 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Juliana, a professional nanny with over 4 years of childcare experience in the Bay Area, caring for children from infancy through school age. I have extensive hands-on experience with babies and toddlers, including feeding, naps, diapering, developmental play, outings, and maintaining consistent routines. I’m warm, patient, reliable, and very attentive to each child’s individual needs. I genuinely enjoy creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can learn, explore, and have fun. I love planning age-appropriate activities, reading, going to parks, playgrounds, museums, storytimes, and organizing playdates. In addition to childcare, I’m comfortable helping with child-related tasks such as preparing meals, bottles, children’s laundry, keeping play areas organized, and maintaining their daily routines. I also have experience with school drop-offs and pick-ups and am comfortable driving children to activities and outings. I’m currently looking for a long-term nanny position with a wonderful family in the Bay Area, ideally working with an infant or young child. I’m especially interested in building a strong, trusting relationship with both the children and their parents and becoming a dependable part of the family’s routine. Looking forward to meeting your family!

Serena $35 per hour for 1 child

Hey! My name is Serena, with 2 years of professional nanny experience and 8 years of being the family nanny. I have experience with kiddos aged from 3 months to 14 years old. I've had experience with being the family babysitter since i was 15 years old. I offer childcare services, cooking for the kiddo(s), bath time, tidying up areas the kiddo and I use, and light laundry if need be. Some activities I typically do range from arts and craft activities, making baked goods/smoothies, reading books, outside play to tire them out, and board games. For younger kids I typically do more age appropriate activities, like sensory box play, tummy time, flash cards of numbers and letters. Additionally, I have experience driving kids around in former parents cars. I have reliable transportation so a commute won't be an issue. I am BLS (basic life support) certified, CPR and AED certified as well. I will provide my certification card (along with my Covid vaccination card), references and resume upon request.

"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)."
