Hi families! I’m an experienced nanny with several years of childcare experience, including working in an in-home daycare and supporting multiple Bay Area families. I’m dependable, patient, and love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children. I have experience caring for toddlers and older children, and I’m comfortable with daily routines, school pickups/drop-offs, meal prep, playtime, naps, and keeping children engaged throughout the day. Families describe me as reliable, caring, and easy to communicate with. I am CPR certified, fully vaccinated, and have reliable transportation. I’m available for occasional babysitting, part-time, and full-time care, and I look forward to connecting with your family!

Hi! My name is Mikaela, and I’m a 30-year-old college graduate with a degree in Sociology and a minor in Child Development. I have over 15 years of experience working with children, from helping raise my siblings to serving as a summer camp supervisor for five years. While attending college in Texas, I worked in daycares and volunteered in a hospital maternity ward, which deepened my passion for supporting children and families. Since graduating, I’ve worked as a certified behavioral specialist supporting children on the autism spectrum, and I recently spent two years as a Special Education teacher before moving back to the Bay Area. Currently, I work as a behavioral specialist at a local school and babysit in my free time. Working with children isn’t just something I enjoy—it’s something I’ve built my career around!

I have over 20 years of experience caring for all ages of children including over 10 years working exclusively with twin infants and toddlers. As a full-time nanny and family assistant I also helped with light housekeeping, driving children to school/activities, pet care, and preparing meals. My warm and energetic personality combined with an extensive knowledge base in childcare and developmentally appropriate activities allows me to fit in seamlessly with families and their specific needs. I am able to connect with children immediately and I often amaze parents with how quickly their “slow-to-warm” little engages with me. In addition to providing a safe and nurturing environment I bring a proactive approach to my work with families and truly enjoy offering support and pitching in. I am also available to help with deep cleaning projects, packing/unpacking, preparing for a move, and organizational projects in the home. I have a B.S. in Health Sciences and in my non-childcare hours I work as a marketing and web design consultant.

Hello! I’m seeking date-night, weekend and part-time sitting. Flexible schedule during school breaks and holidays! I coach preschool/ recreational gymnastics and support our camp program in Emeryville. I’m one of 7 kids and have 6 nieces & nephews! I completed my Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology with a K-12 School Counselor credential from USF. I’ve been an educator for over 20 yrs working as a teacher, school counselor, coach, tutor and nanny. My childcare experience started at age 12 as sitter in my neighborhood and watching my younger siblings. I provided part-time and full-time nannying, evening sitting, emergency/ back-up care and on-going sitting in the Bay Area, (Boston, MA), (Austin, TX), and my home state of Michigan. During graduate school, I interned at a middle school and a high school. I was a high school counselor for 5 years and a middle school counselor this past year. My internships and counseling roles provide me with training in social-emotional development, academic support, crisis intervention, counseling therapies, individual and group therapy, peer mediation and positive reinforcement. I’m always excited to meet new families and support your childcare needs. Please feel free to ask any questions!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
