Booked by 1 family in Emeryville, CA

Hi families! I’m an experienced nanny currently looking for a full-time position. I have a strong background caring for infants and toddlers. I’m formally trained and educated in RIE and hold a bachelors degree in child psychology, which has deeply shaped my caregiving philosophy. Through my RIE training, I focus on respectful, attentive caregiving that supports children’s natural development. I believe in giving children space to explore, move, and learn at their own pace while providing a calm, secure, and predictable environment. I prioritize connection, communication, and treating children as capable individuals. I enjoy creating simple, engaging days that include outdoor time, reading, conversation, and plenty of opportunities for independent play and discovery. I’m patient, reliable, and very attentive to each child’s unique temperament and needs. Families I’ve worked with value my calm presence, strong understanding of infant and young children’s development, and my ability to build trusting relationships with both children and parents.

Booked by 2 families in Emeryville, CA

Hi! My name is Olivia, I am 23, and I am a recent college graduate with a degree in Neuroscience passionate about promoting children’s cognitive development. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love babysitting and have experience watching younger school age children (around 4-5 years old). I have volunteer experience watching groups of children at a time for church activities. I have two years of experience watching both cats and dogs. My family has two cats of our own and I have dog sat for young and elderly dogs. I can house sit, take care of plants, and do household tasks such as cook, clean, and run errands.

Olivia was great! Both my boys warmed up to her quickly and they enjoyed her. They don’t like every sitter, so happy they both liked her from the start.

Hello! My name is Maria, I am a very responsible, loving and caring nanny. I have experience with infants and toddlers for over 7 years. I’m a compassionate and dependable nanny. Skilled in creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment, meal preparation, transportation, and daily routines. My experience working in a pediatric clinic has strengthened my knowledge of child health, development, and communication with families. As an online nursing student pursuing a career as a pediatric nurse, I am passionate about supporting children's well-being and providing patient, attentive, and reliable care. I like to play with children in a way where they can develop their motor skills, communication and learn to discover the world in a safe way. I also like to do indoor and outdoor activities such as, long walks, go to the park, the library for story time, music class and I love to read to children and help them explore and engage in the world around them. English is my first language but I speak fluent in Spanish, some parents ask me to teach Spanish to their children and I gladly teach them. I love kids, I think they are very sweet, fun, intelligent and I always have such a good time with them. Excellent and strong references available upon request. I have CA DL and insurance. CPR/First Aid trained. I am currently seeking for a family to work for PT or ST.

"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

"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)."
