Hello Families! I'm Natalia, I'm thrilled to introduce myself to you. With three children of my own, I have a deep love for working with kids and ensuring top-notch care. My interests span a wide range, from reading books, singing, and crafting, to face painting, playing ,engaging in sports, and dancing. I'm passionate about following children's lead and fostering their imaginations. In addition to nurturing children, I'm here to lend a hand to parents with household chores. With 16 years of experience working with children of various ages and a decade specializing in infants and toddlers, I'm confident in my role as a dedicated caregiver. References from families in the Bay Area can vouch for my commitment and skills. I'm bilingual, a creative spirit, and known for my positive and cheerful personality. Safety is paramount, and I hold CPR training and have received COVID-related vaccinations. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. I'm excited about the opportunity to collaborate with you and build strong relationships with parents and their families for future occasions. Plus, I offer face painting services for those special moments! šŸ˜‰ Once again, thank you for considering me, and I look forward to connecting with you soon!ā¤ļø

ā€œNatalia was a fantastic sitter for my 6 year old twins. She has a lot of energy and so many ideas for games to play and crafts to make. She kept them busy all day, both at home and at the nearby playground. We will definitely hire her again! ā€

Hi there! My name is Brittany but my preferred name is Roman. I am a Career Nanny new to Urban Sitter but not to childcare. I spent 12 years growing and working alongside a family in SF so my reviews on Urban Sitter are limited. This past year, I've been working full-time with a wonderful family caring for a 3 year old and a 10-month old, (in addition to part-time hours with two other beautiful families). My full-time family relocated, so now I'm looking to partner with another family (or nanny share) full-time & preferably long-termā˜ŗļø. A little about me: I have 16 years experience in childcare, 14 years experience as a nanny, 6 years working for a Waldorf/Montessori inspired toy store, 2 years as a pre-nursing student (while working as Certified Nursing Assistant), and experience working as an administrative assistant for an outpatient rehab facility. I have a B.A. degree in Health Administration with focus on health law, epidemiology, and communicable diseases. I graduated with high honors (Magna cum laude) in December of 2021. I spent 2 years as a residential counselor for two co-Ed youth group homes in Concord and Hercules, CA. I have completed and attained multiple certificates of training as part of the, "Foster & Kinship Care Education Program" at Diablo Valley College (These trainings helped develop my understanding and knowledge of child development & attachment, how trauma affects the grieving process, and how to deal with the effects of child behavior) along with college courses in psychology & child development. I have experience with children and the following: Asthma, Sickle Cell Anemia, Obesity, Diabetes, ADD, ADHD, Schizophrenia, Bipolar disorder, ARFID, &severe food allergies (I have experience with vegetarian and vegan diets as well). In my free time: I am currently volunteering as an Adult English Literacy instructor for Project Second Chance (a program offered by Contra Costa County Library Services) using online platforms. I'm an avid camper/backpacker/hiker & outdoor enthusiast. I organize and run my own women's active group (BAQWAG) along with events for many others. I love theater, art, books, gardening, conservation, travel, and learning different languages. With your child: I'm adaptable to all teaching techniques. If there is specific model you use for parenting please let me know. Aside from that, we tend to do lots of art, reading, outdoor activities & Library/community/cultural events.

ā€œRoman is very caring, reliable, and calm. Our kids took to her immediately. We have worked with Roman for more than a year and have always felt our kids were in great hands!ā€

Hi there! I'm Amal, and I absolutely love spending time with kids. There's something truly rewarding about helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe, caring environment. Whether it's playing games, assisting with homework, or simply being a good companion, I strive to create a positive, supportive atmosphere where kids feel comfortable and valued. I have 25 years of babysitting experience, having worked with children of various ages from infants to pre-teens. Over the years, I’ve gained valuable skills in managing routines, keeping kids entertained, and handling any unexpected situations that may arise. I am also experienced in meal preparation, light housekeeping, and ensuring kids stick to their schedules. I also have a background in child development, so I’m able to adapt my approach to suit each child’s needs, ensuring they feel supported and engaged. I’m a responsible, patient, and reliable sitter who believes in providing both fun and structure. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your family to discuss how I can help. I’m allergic to dogs but happy to work with family with cats. I have been a caretaker for my own parents and I am comfortable with senior care. Can drive to appointments,shopping and cook for them. Looking 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."

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)."
