Angela $20 per hour for 1 child

Caring for others has always been more than a job to me—it’s a passion and a calling. From a very young age, I naturally stepped into caregiving roles by helping raise and care for younger children in my family. Those experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of creating a safe, loving environment where others can thrive. With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for children, seniors, pets, and supporting busy households, I’ve developed a well-rounded skill set that allows me to confidently adapt to each family’s unique needs. I am CPR certified and a Certified Personal Trainer, with experience caring for older adults, individuals with varying care needs, and children of different ages. Whether it’s preparing healthy meals, helping with homework, engaging children in fun and educational activities, maintaining a clean and organized home, providing companionship, or assisting with daily routines, I approach every responsibility with patience, kindness, and genuine care. As a proud dog owner myself, I understand that pets are cherished members of the family too. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and other pets, whether that means walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic care, or simply giving them the love and attention they deserve. Families often describe me as dependable, nurturing, trustworthy, calm under pressure, and easy to communicate with. I believe every child deserves to feel encouraged, every senior deserves dignity and compassion, every pet deserves love, and every family deserves peace of mind. My goal is to become someone you can truly rely on—someone who will care for your loved ones and your home with the same level of respect, attention, and dedication that I would give my own family. I would be honored to be a positive, dependable presence in your home and help make your everyday life a little easier.

Booked by 84 families in Drytown, CA

Hi families, my name is Maya! I have 5 years of full time nannying and mother's helper experience with newborns and infants as young as 1 month, and children as old as 10. I have most often worked with multiple children (anywhere from 2-4 at once). I have in depth experience with potty training, transitioning to solids, sleep training (self soothe method and CIO method), tummy time, and speech delays and recently have experience with nanny shares. I also have coursework in early speech development and Linguistics. I’m trilingual and speak both Spanish and Portuguese fluently. Additionally, I am CPR and First Aid certified, Water Safe, and able to travel. In the past, I feel I have thrived most in positions that have had me double as a mother's helper. As a mother's helper I have frequently picked children up from school, provided transportation to extracurricular activities, sent out and picked up dry cleaning, kept the home stocked with essentials, grocery shopped, meal planned/prepped, made trips to the post office, taken care of the family pet, scheduled appointments, made vacation arrangements as well as accompanied my nanny family on vacation and cared for children overnight for added support. I consider myself to be very positive, outgoing, a team player, reliable, honest, responsible, flexible, efficient, communicative, upbeat, and most of all FUN! Some of my strengths and talents include organization and cooking. Please don’t hesitate to contact me If I sound like a good fit for your needs! Thank you for stopping by my profile! *resumé available upon request *in the process of updating my video profile. Video is out of date and new one is pending approval!

Great communication and my girls loved her! We will definitely be re-booking!

Crystal $26 per hour for 1 child

For over 15 years, I've dedicated myself to nurturing children's growth and development, driven by a passion for making a positive impact on their lives and supporting families. I do my best to balance good manners, kindness, and age appropriate life skills. I am patient, creative, friendly and warm. My sole mission is to focus on the children to make sure they are happy, cared for and feel loved. I believe that open communication and collaboration with parents are a strong foundation for a thriving nanny/family relationship. While I am comfortable for caring for up to three children of any age group, I prefer to focus on one or two children at a time. I have many years of hands on experience, with multiple long term families, and am very familiar with growth milestones, sleep and potty training, baby led weaning, etc. I am First Aid and CPR Trained, and TrustLine certified. I have worked for a premier nanny agency in Fresno for the past 9 years and have excellent references and letters of recommendation upon request. My role as a nanny has morphed multiple times over the years. I have mostly started with families with infants and have stayed on while they transition to toddlers and then school age. I'm always happy to help with meal prep, carpooling, and going on fun excursions with the kiddos while cultivating a safe, nurturing and fun environment. I really enjoy being outdoors and weaving in educational facts as I myself enjoy nature, gardening and camping. I try to encourage exploration of topics like reading (I am a voracious reader), gardening, international cultures ( I am half Hispanic and can speak a smidge of Spanish), cuisine and different genres of music. I believe that children should be immersed in the world they live in and see the magic that can be had if we just take the time to observe. Due to relocating to Sacramento mid-December, I am sad to leave my current nanny family. I have been with them for about 7 years. The children are currently 8 and soon to be 5. I am hoping to find full time employment with hopes of a long term arrangement. Please feel free to message me with any questions and I look forward to finding my new nanny family!

Brittany 4 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 6 families in Drytown, CA

Hi, I’m Brittany! I’m a warm, dependable caregiver with 14+ years of experience with kids from 3 months to teens. I’m currently a household manager and nanny for two boys (ages 2 and 5) and a 12-year-old, and I occasionally care for two girls. I prioritize safety, health, and consistency, and tailor care to each child. I support kids in building confidence and independence at any stage. I have experience with neurodivergent children (18 months+) using structure, sensory play, and positive reinforcement. I have a clean driving record and a reliable car. I’m also a certified pet sitter, a dog mom of two (and one cat), and I’m verified across multiple professional nanny, sitter, and pet-care platforms. I bring over 3 years of household management and EA experience, including organizing, scheduling, errands, housekeeping, homework help, and meal/snack prep. I lead with patience, reliability, and clear communication, and I enjoy supporting each child’s strengths. I recently relocated to Sacramento (95824) and I’m available immediately. I’d love to learn more about your family.

Brittany is very communicative and great with kids. It’s clear she knows what to do and can manage two little kids on her own. I appreciated her experience, great attitude, and professionalism.

"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)."
