Hi! My name is Mariagracia, but I go by MG. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish. Recently graduated from San Francisco State University with a major in Environmental Studies. I’ve always loved caring for kids—whether they were cousins, family friends, or neighbors. I’ve worked with children of all ages, from 2 months to 12 years old, and I’m comfortable caring for up to 3 or 4 kids at a time. I’m CPR, AED, and First Aid certified. Safety is always my top priority when working with kids. I can help with homework, school pick-ups, meal/snack prep, daily walks, playdates, swimming, and keeping kids engaged and entertained. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping and tidying up play areas. On top of that, I’ve house sat for multiple families over the years and have experience caring for both dogs and cats—so if you have pets, that’s a big plus for me! I bring a calm, caring, and responsible energy to every family I work with and always aim to create a safe and fun environment for kids to thrive in.

“We worry about what a child will become tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone today.” ~ Stacia Tauscher Hello, I am Regina. A teacher, mother and nature lover. In my ten years as an educator I have worn many hats. From Montessori guide, to private, Judaic and play-based schools and also as a behavioral tech for the school district. I have found most success and personal satisfaction as a private nanny and family assistant. I look forward to being a member of your family and providing you the parent peace of mind and your child a safe place to be. Bachelors in education 2024. Infant and pediatric CPR current 2026

Hello! Thank you for taking some time to read my profile. My name is Jenessa and I love working with children and people of all ages I am an older sister of two twin brothers and cat mom. A little bit more about me - I am currently work at an elementary school in a T-K class. I have obtained my Bachelors in Early Childhood and Early intervention and music. I am BLS & CPR, CNA as well as RBT certified. A previous role I held was 2 years at HealthPro Pediatrics using behavioral therapy with children with various disorders including autism. In addition, I have loved being a Professional nanny since 2016. This has included working with multiple children newborn-14 with various needs and diagnoses, driving/pickups, bed time routines, meal prep, and other house managing jobs - including your furry friends! A reoccurring family I babysit for has a 8mth, 3, and 5 yr boys. One of my most rewarding positions was at a teen parent program for first time high school moms and their newborns. I have worked long term with quite a few families, have been a preschool teacher, have had many babysitting jobs, been a leader for preschoolers in camps, and have volunteered with special needs kids-adults (briefly with a special needs inclusive theater) to name a few! I am patient, hard-working, flexible, outgoing, trustworthy, and have great references. My hobbies are music, piano, going to the beach, and yoga! In my free time I really enjoy volunteering weekly at the Ronald McDonald House. I love bringing art projects and science projects for the kids I nanny for and I have a lot of different supplies, curriculum - I have picked up over the past few years. I have a clean driving record and I am comfortable picking up from school/taking your children to places like museums or the zoo. Most importantly I care about your child/rens safety, well-being, and happiness. I have loved helping children reach their developmental milestones and being a support system for kiddos who have needed it. The children and families I have worked for long term have become family to me! And I hope to become a new friend to you. My rates vary based on location, number of children, and job duties If this interests you at all feel free to send over a message! I am looking forward to learning more about your specific needs and working with you and your wonderful family, Jenessa raeofsunshinemusicco.com

“Jenessa, Ms. Jen, was an amazing caregiver to our kids. She arrived on time and had many activities planned with our children. Ms Jen asked questions to ensure she had the right knowledge and understanding of what and how our children would be cared for. She was very knowledgeable in how to communicate to our kids and provided engaging conversation. We had a wonderful experience with Ms Jen and would definitely look forward to her caregiving services in the future. ”

"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)."
