Gabriela $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi Families! I'm Gabi. I've spent several years caring for children, including two years in the au pair program and another full year with a wonderful family. I'm now looking for a new role as my current little one starts school soon. I love hiking, the gym, jogging, beach days, and staying connected with my family in Brazil. I grew up in a close-knit family and value strong bonds and quality time. My family visited the U. S. for the first time this year for my 29th birthday, and we had a blast! My goal is to make the children I care for feel supported and inspired. I'm a very organized person and want to make sure we keep communication easy. I have a California driver's license, clean records and plenty of experience driving little ones. I speak both Portuguese and English and am seeking a part-time role (20-25 hours per week). I'm based in Burlingame and available to start by the end of September. I'd love to bring my energy, care, and experience to 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)."
