Booked by 3 families in Castro Valley, CA

Hello my name is Araceli. I am a dedicated and experienced childcare provider with over a decade of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages — from infants to middle schoolers. As a mother of three, I bring both professional expertise and genuine love for nurturing young minds. For six years, I cared for two wonderful children full-time, supporting their development from early childhood into their preteen years. I currently work at a school in Oakland in an after-school program, where I’ve spent the past three years caring for students from TK through 8th grade. Families describe me as reliable, responsible, and nurturing, with a calm and caring presence. I take pride in creating safe, positive, and engaging environments that help children learn and thrive. I am also fluent in Spanish, which allows me to comfortably communicate with bilingual families and support early language development. I am very flexible with scheduling, have excellent references, and am always willing to adapt to a family’s unique needs. Above all, I’m excited to meet a new family and build a lasting, trusting relationship where your children feel cared for, respected, and happy every day.

“There is no caregiver like Karina. She looked after my children and was like a part of our family for six years. She is helpful, reliable, so easy to be around and wonderfully kind, loving but appropriately firm with children. My kids still love her and talk about her often. Friends of mine would see her with our kids at music class or the park and remark how great she was with them. You will not find a better fit for your childcare needs!”

"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)."
