Booked by 2 families in Fair Oaks, CA

Hello! My name is Britney, and I'm a college graduate from UC Santa Cruz living in Sacramento for law school with extensive experience in childcare. I’ve been tutoring and babysitting children since I was 16, which has given me a deep understanding of their needs and how to engage with them in a fun, educational, and caring manner. I’m passionate about helping kids learn and grow, whether through homework help, creative activities, or simply ensuring they have a safe and enjoyable time. My background in tutoring means I can provide more than just supervision—I can offer a supportive learning environment tailored to your child's needs. I'm responsible, reliable, and excited to bring my experience to a new family. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your children!

She’s great!

I also assist with household tasks and am open to helping with pets and general home care. I am a mother of two toddlers, which has given me strong hands-on experience, patience, and a deep understanding of children’s needs and routines. I am outgoing, reliable, and compassionate, and I truly enjoy helping others and making a positive difference. As an artist, I bring creativity into my caregiving by engaging children in fun and meaningful activities.

Mandee $18 per hour for 1 child

I am a mother of 3 boys; my oldest is now 18 years old and my youngest are twin 13 year old boys. To say that I have experience with children would be an extreme understatement. I am trying to return to the general workforce but since I primarily have experience in the medical field with extensive medical experience I was hoping that childcare would be a good entryway. I am very responsible and I come with a unique ability to communicate with children in a manner that they are comfortable with (non-condescending). I am also a returning English Literature student hoping to eventually become a English Literature Professor at the University level.

"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)."
