Daniela 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Fairfax, CA

I have worked with children for 15+ years. I attribute my creativity, patience, and curiosity to my success. I love working with children and it will always be more than a job to me.

Daniela is the best! She is super attentive to our 16 month old who is constantly on the move and my almost 7 year old loves when she comes to "play". She is quick to respond with availability and she always asks the best questions to make sure that she provides the best care. We are always at ease when Daniela is with our girls because we know they'll be safe and happy.

Jackeline $30 per hour for 1 child

Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is my greatest passion. With six years of experience 4 years in a daycare, caring for children ages 5-month-old to 3 years old I prioritize creating a patient, creative, and safe environment. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules to ensure consistency for your little one. Whether we are playing outdoor sports or solving puzzles, I love keeping children active and engaged. I hold CPR training and First Aid certifications. I value clear communication and provide regular updates via text, phone calls, or verbal reports at pickup to keep you informed. Because I have a reliable car and love animals, I am happy to assist with school runs or pet-friendly households. I am truly honored to be a positive influence in your child's life and look forward to building a meaningful connection with your family.

"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)."
