Maria $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Maria, I am a very responsible, loving and caring nanny. I have experience with infants and toddlers for over 7 years. I’m a compassionate and dependable nanny. Skilled in creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment, meal preparation, transportation, and daily routines. My experience working in a pediatric clinic has strengthened my knowledge of child health, development, and communication with families. As an online nursing student pursuing a career as a pediatric nurse, I am passionate about supporting children's well-being and providing patient, attentive, and reliable care. I like to play with children in a way where they can develop their motor skills, communication and learn to discover the world in a safe way. I also like to do indoor and outdoor activities such as, long walks, go to the park, the library for story time, music class and I love to read to children and help them explore and engage in the world around them. English is my first language but I speak fluent in Spanish, some parents ask me to teach Spanish to their children and I gladly teach them. I love kids, I think they are very sweet, fun, intelligent and I always have such a good time with them. Excellent and strong references available upon request. I have CA DL and insurance. CPR/First Aid trained. I am currently seeking for a family to work for PT or ST.

Hailey $20 per hour for 1 child

I have several years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. Over time, I’ve worked as both a babysitter and nanny, gaining hands-on experience with daily routines, meal prep, school drop-offs and pick-ups, homework help, and bedtime. I truly enjoy building strong, trusting relationships with the families I work with, and I always make sure the kids feel safe, cared for, and engaged. I bring patience, responsibility, and a fun, creative energy to childcare. Whether it’s organizing activities, helping with learning, or simply spending time outdoors, I believe in creating a balanced mix of structure and play. I also have experience with pets and household responsibilities, so I’m able to lend a helping hand wherever it’s needed. My goal as a nanny is to provide reliable, nurturing support that gives parents peace of mind and children a safe and happy environment to thrive in.

"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)."
