Hi! My name is Kate, and I’m a Registered Nurse with over five years of nannying experience caring for children from early toddlerhood through age 10 and older. In addition to childcare, I have worked as a nurse in both a skilled nursing facility (SNF) and a hospital setting, where I’ve developed strong clinical skills, compassion, and the ability to remain calm and confident in any situation. My medical background gives families added peace of mind, knowing their children are in safe, capable hands. I genuinely enjoy building meaningful relationships with children and creating a fun, positive, and nurturing environment where they feel supported and encouraged to learn and grow. Whether it’s helping with homework, preparing meals, engaging in arts and crafts, spending time outdoors, reading stories, or maintaining bedtime routines, I strive to make each day enjoyable while prioritizing safety and kindness. I am dependable, patient, organized, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I’m also happy to assist with light housekeeping, meal preparation, transportation, and pet care if needed. My goal is to provide families with reliable, loving care and to be someone both parents and children can trust.

Toni $30 per hour for 1 child

I've always been passionate about fostering children's growth and development. As the oldest of four siblings, I grew up taking care of my three younger siblings, which gave me invaluable hands-on experience in childcare. I've recently graduated at UC San Diego, majoring in both Microbiology and Chinese Studies. Grew up speaking Spanish and currently studying Russian. My background has helped me develop patience, adaptability, and strong communication skills-qualities that are essential in childcare. I have one year of professional experience caring for children and am comfortable with all ages, from infants to preteens. I enjoy engaging kids in activities such as outdoor sports, board games, and educational games, always looking for new and exciting ways to help them learn and grow. I have a car, am a non-smoker, and am comfortable with pets. I follow the parents lead when enforcing household rules and communicate effectively about their child's day. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can thrive. I currently work for 3 families at the moment all under the age of 2, during the daytime on weekdays! Looking to fill in more of my hours, if you need to see my reviews please let me know and I will send those out! Also! Pricing is definitely a negotiable for me :D

Booked by 1 family in Del Mar, CA

Hi, my name is Kendall and I’m a second year at UCSD! I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. My brother was born when I was 10 and our parents were/are often gone (nurse and firefighter), so I’ve helped raise him since he was born- getting him ready and driving him to and from school, activities, putting him to sleep, etc. I’ve been babysitting for other families since I was 13, including babies around 1 year old. This past summer I nannied a 12 month old and 16 month old, which consisted of feeding/changing, driving to daycare, helping around the house and cleaning pump parts. I’ve taught swim lessons at UC Berkeley for the past 4 summers, as well as private lessons, for toddlers and kids of many ages, and am first aid and CPR certified :) I’m also a HUGE animal lover: I raised my own baby dog since 7 weeks and she’s now 5 and a half and the light of my life. I’ve pet-sat many dogs, cats, and even birds. I’ve had my license since May of 2022 and have a reliable car that I can use to drive kids and fur babies if helpful. I’m happy to provide references for any of these services, and look forward to meeting you and your little ones! 🩵

“Kendall came to the rescue when I was planning a trip to San Diego and needed a sitter for my 4 month old. She responded promptly to my message on the app and we were able to schedule a phone interview quickly. She is CPR certified! And arrived exactly on time. The day of the job I spent about 10 minutes making sure my fussy baby wouldn’t stress out Kendall. Not at all. Kendall was calm and in control of the situation, took baby for a baby wearing walk and I was able to leave for my event confident that she would be a competent caretaker. Before the gig we went over qualifications and worst case scenarios, and she had great responses. I asked Kendall to send me pictures while she watched my baby and she did. 10/10 I know who to hire next time I’m in San Diego with my child! Kendall is so sweet she is the best.”

Allena $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Allena and I’m 22 years old attending UCSD. I have been nannying and babysitting on and off for about 7 years now. I’ve done occasional babysitting for family and friends and I have worked in a Kids Club at a gym. I’m experienced with children aged 3 weeks to 10 years but my area of expertise is with infants and toddlers. I have experience with diaper changes, formula prep, bottle feeding, nap times, changing, driving children, and watching multiple kids at once. I am also CPR and First Aid certified! I love lending a helping hand to families and creating a fun, loving and safe space for children’s growth. I look forward to hearing from you!

"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)."
