Booked by 6 families in Emeryville, CA

Hi! My name is Ingrid Johanna, children call me Jojo. I live in SF and am bilingual, I speak English and Spanish. I have five years of experience as a preschool teacher with toddlers and big kids, and others 5 years as a nanny working with babies, toddlers and children. I love to go to the park, playgrounds, zoo, etc. with parents approval. I’m a sweet, kind, patient and loving nanny. Provide emotional support for the children is very important, for them to feel loved, secure and worthy. I also have got numerous fun developmental activities that I like implementing with kids. I like to be part of children’s intellectual and physical growth, and also be there for them like an older sister. I’m a very positive and easy going person, I have my own car, a degree in preschool, fully vaccinated and CPR certification.

Booked by 2 families in Emeryville, CA

Decades as a preschool teacher across the SF Bay Área working with ages 0 to 7, focused on Spanish-immersion and play-based care that supports emotional and developmental growth.

Leyla is a true gem. She used to be a daycare teacher and has been our nanny -- both individual and as part of a share -- for the past 9 months. She's been such an attentive and sweet caretaker who sings to the babies, helps with their food prep, and plays with them all day. In addition, she sends detailed summaries of what/how much the babies ate/drank during the day and their nap schedules. She can easily handle two little ones (even taking them to the park!) and is extremely reliable. She's originally from Peru and is also a skilled cook. We miss her already.

Booked by 9 families in Emeryville, CA

Greetings families! My name is Samantha but you all can call me Sam. I have been a career nanny for 10+ years. And have experience working with newborns, infant, toddlers, and older children all around. Plus, a background with children diagnosed with autism, ADHD, and bipolar disorder. I am transitioning to being a postpartum doula and newborn care specialist. Currently in the process of becoming certified with DONA International by the end of 2023. Am mom to a pitbull mix doggo and a domestic short hair kitty. :)

Sam was wonderful! She was prompt, professional, an excellent communicator, and she was terrific with my young toddler. I had never had a sitter before so I was incredibly nervous but I felt immediately comfortable leaving my kid with Sam. She updated us via text to let us know how it was going. Sam listened closely to any instructions I left, and followed them closely and respectfully, and let me know each thing was clear and understood. She was terrific playing with my toddler and I'd be thrilled to book her in the future.

"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)."
