Hi! My name is Erin. I am 39 years old. I have 4 children and 2 dogs. I have been working with babies, children and families since I was 15 years old. Professionally I have been a nanny, house manager and a caretaker for last 20 years + (along with a few other business’ I started- I owned a cloth diaper service, lactation cookie company, meal prep service etc). I currently work in the Tahoe area as well as the Bay Area (San Francisco, Napa, Walnut Creek, Mill valley). I have worked with several families short and long term ranging from newborn preemie twins starting at 2 weeks old and up! I have experience being a night nanny with single babies and twins. I have a passion for healthy cooking and very knowledgeable on different styles of eating. I enjoy working with families that can benefit from meal prep, a healthy dinner and/or starting your day off with a healthy smoothie! Or maybe a cheese board or soup when you arrive home after a long day on the slopes! I am happy to grocery shop and run errands (with or without your kiddos). Even for the occasional date night positions, I’d be happy to prep a breakfast for the next morning while the kids sleep! I went to school for nutrition/health coaching, as well as EMT school. I am medically knowledgeable and confident handling emergency and medical situations. I am comfortable working with children with special needs as well as mental health conditions. While I was living in Los Angeles I went to school to be a midwifery assistant and worked in a birth center for a short time as an assistant and post partumn doula. In my free time I enjoy being outside, camping, paddle boarding, biking, cooking, swimming, basically anything outdoors. When I come to your home or hotel I bring age appropriate games, crafts, and activities! When I work regularly with families, have a long day and/or a lot of kids at once, I like to create a lesson plan for the day with structure and fun, which will usually include physical activity and a craft/cooking/science project, lots of reading, etc. I look forward to working with your family!

Hello families! 😊 I’m a dedicated professional child caregiver with over 7 years of experience helping children thrive from infancy through early childhood. My approach combines an engaging, playful environment with a strong foundation in early childhood education—helping little ones build confidence, master key developmental milestones, and learn healthy emotional skills. Key Qualifications & Experience: • CPR & First Aid Certified • Multiple Early Childhood Development Certifications • Specialized in milestone tracking, screen-free learning, and positive boundaries I love keeping kids active through outdoor adventures, creative arts, storytime, and hands-on learning. I focus on creating a supportive, structured space where children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to explore. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with light household management, meal prep, house sitting, and pet care. I pride myself on being reliable, punctual, and easy to communicate with. I look forward to connecting with your family!

Hi! My name is Lauren, I am 34 years old. I'm an experienced nanny of 10+ years and can connect you with further references upon request! Beyond childcare, my background is in mental health care. I have worked at therapeutic boarding schools, youth crisis homes, foster care, etc., and have CPR, first-aid (recently refreshed June of 2025) and crisis intervention certifications. I am a former competitive swimmer and lifeguard and am extremely comfortable in the water! I love art, and enjoy doing crafts and playing outside, but I am always open for whatever you and your kids are most comfortable with! I am happy to bring an activity to do with your kids if you let me know ahead of time what they are into. I have the most experience in nanny care with toddlers and babies, and field experience in the aforementioned therapy and school settings with young children, preteens/teens. I also have experience with children with special needs. Please reach out and let me know if you'd like to set up a phone call or FaceTime to chat more! :)

I am a nanny who absolutely loves children, child development and especially toddlers. I have 4+ years of teaching experience (preschool and kindergarten) and 3+ nannying. I love pets, I have an adorable 2 year old sweet hyper doggy that I absolutely adore and 2 kitties we love very much! I’m NOT comfortable working for families that use spanking as discipline or any harsh disciplinary actions with children. I work best with families who have a gentle approach and can allow me to use a gentle, child led approach as well.

"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)."
