I am booking occasional nights and daytime care as my schedule is open. I am seeking a part time or fulltime job in San Francisco, Berkeley, Albany, Oak. I am also open to working evening or daytime occasional care. After finishing a 14 month position a FT job with a 1.5- turning 2.5 child I had a 3 month temp job with a 1.5 year old. I have worked as a full time Nanny and Preschool teacher for 20 years in SF, Berkeley and Oakland. Truly Outdoorsy! I have enthusiastically enjoyed caring for the ages of 2-5 from age 18. Most of the families that I have worked with the past 8 years have left the area but are still fabulous references. I never used an agency. 2.5 Years I worked as nanny in Berkeley to a 1- 4 year old in Berkeley, 4 plus years recently, and numerous families in SF during 2021- 22. I cared for a 2 year old full time and the 5 year old part time. I have over 23 years of nannying experience. I started young! I have a BA in Psychology and took 8 education courses. I studied abroad in India, Nepal and Tibet. In college I worked at a daycare then started a drama club at the same afterschool program for 3 years. I assisted a Waldorf - inspired preschool, taught at a Montessori based English language immersion preschool and kindergarten in Taiwan for 2 years. I worked as a teacher for 3 years with 2-5 year olds at a lovely Reggio play based preschool in Berkeley. I have been known to have a strong constitution, good health and I very much find children funny and wise. I found my calling early on.

Jane was a fabulous caregiver to my 2.5 year old son! We hired Jane to watch our son for 1.5 weeks (M-F) while his preschool was on a break, and we couldn't recommend her enough! She was attentive, punctual, kind, and high energy, taking our son on all sorts of outings, from the zoo to museums. She also tidied up around the kitchen/playroom while he was taking his nap. We will definitely be working with Jane again!

Hello there! I'm Haley, an experienced childcare worker with four years of experience. I'm currently seeking a full-time nanny role or a part-time position. My experience includes teaching infant and toddler classrooms at a daycare, occasional work with older kids, and tutoring at the high school and college level. I studied Data Science at UC Berkeley, and worked as a lab assistant in computer science and data science courses. I can also assist with meal prep and cooking. As a nanny, creating a safe and nurturing environment is my priority. I enjoy my work because I can watch kids grow and develop into amazing human beings, and being a part of that process is so invaluable. Outside of childcare, I like being outdoors or cooking for friends and family. If you're looking for someone to join your family, my inbox is open to messages. I would love to chat with you!

Haley is fantastic. She did great with my gifted and neurodivergent child.

With over a decade of dedicated experience in childcare, I bring warmth, reliability, and a deep understanding of children’s needs to each family I work with. I’ve provided one-on-one care as well as support for multiples, including serving as a full-time nanny for three siblings—an infant, a 2.5-year-old, and a 5-year-old. My background also includes roles as an au pair, tutor, teacher, and camp counselor, giving me a well-rounded foundation for connecting with kids of all ages. Please feel free to book any open time on my calendar, as I keep it updated regularly. For any questions, don’t hesitate to send me a message. I look forward to meeting you and your family! Booking Policies: --4-hour minimum booking --I’m not available for phone interviews but happy to schedule an in-person working interview if you want to meet before booking for a longer gig.

"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)."
