Booked by 2 families in Emeryville, CA

Hi! I’m Britney, 22 years old, with over 5 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns and infants to toddlers and school-aged kids. I’m a caring, patient, and dependable nanny who loves creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and feel happy. I have experience with infant care, feeding, nap routines, developmental activities, meal preparation, light housekeeping related to the children, and caring for kids when they’re sick. I also have a reliable car and driving experience. Building trust with both children and parents is very important to me. I believe every family deserves to feel confident knowing their little ones are in loving and responsible hands.

Britney is truly amazing and absolutely trustworthy person! She has been taking care of our 15 months old daughter for 5 months now and they both have developed such a great bond!❤️ We love her! Me and my husband can be at our work and feel comfortable knowing that our child is safe at home with her. On the days when our daughter was sick and recovering from illness and we had to be at work, Britney took the best care of her. I would highly recommend her!

Lauren $30 per hour for 1 child

Experienced, kind, and flexible support looking to provide part or full time care (20-40 hours per week) in Berkeley/East Bay while I work on a part-time neuroscience project. I'm active/outdoorsy, creative, and nerdy--I love engaging children of all ages in the fullness of what's happening now! Available for work while my primary family is out of town June 22-June 27. Please note that my hourly rate may adjust for temp/ad hoc care. Recent references available. I grew up raising my eight younger siblings in an unschooling/off-grid environment, nannied school-aged children in undergrad, and have been heavily influenced by Maria Montessori, Rudolf Steiner (Waldorf School), and Fred Rogers. One of my early goals in getting to know your family would be to understand your ethos and preferences, and support them--I've worked well with many family structures and nurturing styles. I believe strongly in empowering children to be attuned to their instincts and environments, play/explore within healthy boundaries, and to treat themselves and others with respect and care. TLDR on logistics: I’m comfortable helping with cooking, chores, errands, pets, the pre/postpartum periods, and other items as needed—happy to discuss the scope of what you’re looking for. I live in Berkeley near downtown and have my own car.

Aaron $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Aaron. I’m a preschool teacher, former financial advisor, and proud parent of two wonderful kids. I was fortunate to stay home with my daughter during her first three years, which inspired me to earn my early childhood teaching credentials and work as a preschool teacher. I come from a large family in Indiana, where I grew up helping in my grandmother’s Sunday school class and caring for many younger cousins. Over the years, I’ve continued to build experience with children, from teaching in the classroom to recently nannying for two children (ages 2 and 5, one with Autism). Working with children is truly my passion. Families describe me as patient, nurturing, and someone kids connect with easily. My greatest strength is forming strong, positive bonds and creating a calm, joyful environment where children feel safe and supported.

Alexa $32 per hour for 1 child

I’m a caring, dependable mom who understands how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your children. I treat every child in my care with the same patience, attention, and kindness I would want for my own. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish and love creating fun, age-appropriate experiences for kids. Whether it’s an active day at a local park, playing outside, getting creative with crafts and watercolor painting, reading, or enjoying a quiet activity, I’m happy to meet each child where they are. I can also prepare basic meals, help tidy up, and I’m a big animal lover, so pets are no problem! Most importantly, I want parents to have peace of mind knowing their children are safe, happy, cared for, and having a genuinely good time while they’re away.

"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)."
