Booked by 10 families in Emeryville, CA

Hello, my name is Júlia. It's a pleasure to meet you! I have a background as a former Au Pair and I'm excited to begin my journey as a college student. My experience has involved providing full-time care to newborns and toddlers, both as an Au Pair and back in my home country of Brazil, where I worked in a daycare and looked after my cousins. I am often described as responsible, patient, sweet, and calm. Interacting with children brings me immense joy, whether it's playing, engaging in arts and crafts, going for walks, or simply making sure they have a great time. In addition to my passion for child care, I have always loved animals. In Brazil, I pursued my studies in veterinary medicine because I find great fulfillment in taking care of animals. If you have any pets, I would be more than happy to extend my care to them as well! I’m so looking forward to meet you! Julia

Julia cleaned our apartment thoroughly. Highly recommend and would book her again if we need cleaning services!

Booked by 21 families in Emeryville, CA

Hello parents! I'm a nurturing individual with a passion for children's growth and development. My journey in childcare stems from a desire to impact young lives positively. With 4 years of Nanny experience and being a former Montessori Teachers Aid, l've honed my skills in providing a safe and stimulating environment for children. I've cared for children ages ranging from 3 months to 11 years old. I worked as an after school teacher and taught coding, clay art, and lego engineering to elementary aged children. Ranging from grades 1st to 4th. I am also an older sister and an aunt. My siblings being now 13 years old and 7 years old. I have helped raise my siblings and have learned from an early age how to take care of children! I believe in fostering a warm and friendly atmosphere where children feel comfortable expressing themselves. My patient and creative approach allows me to engage children in various activities, including outdoor games, board games, and educational games that enhance their learning. I understand the importance of open communication with parents and regularly provide written daily reports and updates on their child's well-being. I firmly believe in following the parents' lead when it comes to enforcing household rules. My background includes college coursework in Early Childhood Education and Development, which has further enhanced my understanding of children's needs.

Chelsea is a phenomenal nanny - she has cared for our 6 month old girl wonderfully. She is calm and detail-oriented. She fills each day with age-appropriate, stimulating activities and has helped advance eating solids, tummy time, sitting up and improving nap routines for our daughter. She maintains a safe environment at all times and is communicative / responsive to my husband and self during care while we are at work. She really is a team player - always on time, always positive, takes direction well, and shows genuine interest in helping us with our daughter's needs and general household maintenance. She also is proficient in Huckleberry app tracking, which has been a huge blessing in communicating our daughter's daytime schedule. She really goes above and beyond in her role. Lastly - Our daughter LOVES her. Baby always smiles when she comes over and shows signs of comfort when in her arms.

Hi there! I'm 32 years old. I'm from Brazil and I have 8+ years experience with kids. My experience is with kids from the age 0 months old to 16yo. I'm patient, caring, responsible, flexible, dependable, organized, happy and very positive. I’m actually looking for opportunities for the month of June to help out with summer.

Please contact me and I'd be happy to provide more information. Thank you! ✨

She was professional, on time, and someone I will definitely hire again. Thank you Dèbora!

Booked by 7 families in Emeryville, CA

Hi there! I’m Soha :) Unfortunately, my original profile was deactivated (along with my 5 star rating and 30+ families) but I have over a decade of experience providing regular childcare to families of infants, toddlers (my fave age group), and even teenagers! Happy to provide reviews and references from several former and current parents I babysit for :) I absolutely love babysitting and in the past several years, I have made it my goal to ensure every family I’ve ever had a gig or regular babysitting job for (about several dozen.. and counting!) receives the best childcare! I am available to babysit for date-nights, events, or any occasion that requires a night out! I don’t mind last minute requests so if you have an emergency or cancellation, I am happy to help and often consider myself an “on demand babysitter” for a lot of families that need a same-day, or even same-hour babysitter! Aside from being a babysitter, I have worked in the legal field for several years. Prior to being a litigation paralegal, I worked in corporate law and legal operations. I also volunteer as a crisis counselor for CrisisTextLine and as a Coach for SoccerShots. Most of my jobs required a lot of emotional energy and empathy, but were extremely gratifying and gave me valuable experience, training to tackle any type of emergency, and a very basic, but universal, understanding of humans. I’ve loved babysitting since I first started using UrbanSitter back in college - it really helped me connect with families, and that connection and confidence as a babysitter is really important and gratifying!

Soha worked with our family for quite a while and she was honestly great with the kids and they were always happy to be around her and she was very patient and caring and she was always on time very responsible and I never had to worry when the kids were with her and she kept them busy with fun activities and made sure they were safe and comfortable I would happily recommend her to any family looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely good with children

"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)."
