My name is Jo, I was born and raised in San Diego, CA. I graduated from San Diego State University, with a Bachelors in Public Health and a minor in Child and Family Development. I recently received a Masters degree in Public Health from Azusa Pacific University. I currently have a full time job as an Epidemiologist for our local public health department. Previously, I worked at the SDSU Children’s Center as a teacher's assistant in infant, transition and preschool classrooms. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and also know some baby sign language. I hold a clean driving record and I have a recent background check. I am CPR certified through the AHA. I cook healthy meals and I have worked with families with food sensitivities and allergies. I practice an RIE approach when working with infants and toddlers. I am all around driven, reliable, eager to learn and passionate about children's health and early childhood education. I hope I am a good match in your search for a babysitter/nanny. I am very flexible when it comes to scheduling, However, I require one-week advance notice but last minute bookings are possible and would be considered. Thank you for your consideration. Jori (Jo)

Hi, I’m Melanie. I am a dedicated childcare professional and educator with a Bachelor’s degree in Child and Family Development and a state-issued teaching permit. My background is rooted in early childhood education, and I have spent years in various settings, from running my own preschool classroom to working in specialized schools with children who have autism and other disabilities. Because of my additional training in school counseling, I am especially focused on emotional regulation and helping children feel secure and heard, no matter their age or needs. I know how stressful it can be to find someone you truly trust with your children, which is why I prioritize clear communication and consistency. I am proud to have built a reputation here on the app with positive reviews and the opportunity to work with nine repeat families. I also have extensive experience supporting families long-term, including a wonderful five-year placement with one family before they moved out of state, and I take pride in building those lasting, reliable relationships. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have a clean background, and have a current negative TB test. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing, and fun environment so you can feel completely at ease whenever you are away. I would love to connect, and talk more to answer questions.

Melanie was wonderful and I’d love to have her back. My 17 month old had a blast with her.

"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
