Carmen $33 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Carmen and I've lived in San Francisco since 2007. I have also worked as a nanny in Texas. I am looking to take care of a child in the city. The most interesting experiences I've had in my career was being a live-in nanny for 3 years for a famous NFL family and another time I was a live-in nanny for a famous Latino singer for a year. All experiences were great and I enjoyed every moment of them.

$35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 7 families in Daly City, CA

Hello families, and thank you for reading. My name is Paula, and I am a calm, organized, and dependable nanny with over nine years of experience caring for children, with a strong focus on infants and toddlers. I have worked with families in both short- and long-term roles and bring a nurturing, consistent, and intentional approach to childcare. I am deeply committed to supporting children’s emotional, physical, and developmental growth and find great fulfillment in guiding them through their early years. My caregiving style incorporates Montessori- and Waldorf-inspired practices, child-led play, and nonviolent communication, always honoring each child’s unique needs and developmental stage. I prioritize minimal phone use during working hours and focus on hands-on, screen-free activities that encourage creativity, curiosity, and independence. I believe in learning through play—getting outside, getting messy, exploring nature, creating art, and allowing children the freedom to discover the world through their senses. In addition to my professional childcare background, I am currently training to become a doula, which has strengthened my knowledge of newborn care, infant development, and family support. I am also taking classes at City College of San Francisco. I am a former au pair on both the East and West Coasts, and I have also nannied in my home country, caring for up to three children at a time. I currently live in San Francisco’s Mission District and am seeking part-time and one-time care opportunities, including occasional babysitting and short-term support. I hold a valid work and travel permit, am CPR and First Aid certified, and am fully vaccinated (COVID, flu, Tdap). I look forward to connecting and supporting your family with care, creativity, and intention. Warmly, Paula

Paula is an absolute gem. She watched our 18 month old daughter part time for a few weeks leading up to our cross country move. Our daughter immediately took to her and was thrilled to see her anytime she came over! Paula’s calm nature really puts toddlers at ease. We can’t wait to see Paula again when we come to visit SF.

Booked by 1 family in Daly City, CA

Hi, my name is Karla. I’m the oldest of six siblings, ranging in age from 2 to 19, I’ve been around little ones my whole life! I’m originally from South San Francisco and currently studying at Saddleback College, working toward a career in teaching. I began babysitting my own siblings, then started caring for children of my mom’s friends. After high school, I managed a shoe store for two years, but I realized my passion was working with children. Since then, I’ve spent the last four years in licensed daycare centers, starting in a preschool classroom, then moving to toddlers, and currently a lead teacher in Pre-K. I also have some experience with infants and am very open to working with them more. Working in a variety of daycare settings has exposed me to different teaching philosophies and approaches to early childhood development. I genuinely enjoy helping kids reach their developmental milestones and creating a positive, supportive environment for them to grow.

Booked by 3 families in Daly City, CA

Hey there, my name is Yeinell (or Jay for short)! A bit about me: I was born in the Dominican Republic but spent most of my life in NY up until college. I recently graduated from UC Berkeley where I studied psychology and public policy. I have been babysitting since I was 14 years old (not including being a full time big sis/eldest cousin). I have worked with toddlers for about 4 years and children from TK- 8th grade ages for about 7 years. Most of my work experience has involved caring for or learning to understand children; whether that is mentoring, teaching abroad, or conducting developmental psych research the past couple of years. I have in the past worked for a dog walking and cat sitting group where I honed my skills in the pet caretaking field. Currently, I work full time with Americorps at an elementary school in San Francisco managing behavioral issues/interventions, teaching the SEL Curriculum, and running the Mentoring For Success Program. I love hiking, snowboarding , BJJ , and meditation! I also love animals and have raised 2 kitties myself 🙂! I speak Spanish, English, and Portuguese and love learning about new cultures. I have a passion for helping others and fostering a healthy environment for children to grow inside and outside of the home. I am available after school most days until late nights, and almost all weekends! If you have any questions about my availability or experience please do not hesitate to reach out, I am willing to accommodate!

Hannah $18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Daly City, CA

Hi families! My name is Hannah and I currently work monday-thursday as a nanny for a set a twins that have recently turned 3! I have worked in childcare for over 5 years and have a niece and nephew that I absolutely adore and care for as if they were my own. I am super energetic and frequently get applauded for my enthusiasm by my current family. I speak conversational Korean and have taught the little ones many Korean words, phrases, and children's songs. Children are learning SPONGES and I love being able to be part of someone's educational growth while having fun. I prepare meals, take them to the park, give them baths, and of course play and read to the children I take care of. I have my own vehicle and also have a membership to the Oakland Zoo and Academy of Science (child must be under 3) that I can use to take your child on a fun adventure! I graduated from SFSU in 2014 and I am hoping to open up my own daycare in spring of 2017 in the peninsula. I have always loved taking care of children and I am happy that I get to do it for a living now!

"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)."
