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!

I’m currently based in the Burlingame area for the summer and looking for weekend babysitting opportunities, with full availability coming up later in the summer as well. I’m a responsible and caring nanny with experience working with children ages 10 and up. I can help with routines, homework support, or just keeping kids engaged and active. I can also help with light household tasks such as laundry, loading/unloading the dishwasher, tidying up after the kids. I’m also an animal lover and happy to help with pet care! I can walk dogs, feed pets, and provide short-term care while families are traveling. Looking forward to connecting with families in the area!

Booked by 1 family in Half Moon Bay, CA

I am a recent graduate of Santa Clara University, where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. I have experience working with children of various ages and backgrounds through my roles as a Youth Program Leader with the Boys & Girls Club and as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) supporting children with special needs, specifically autism. These experiences have strengthened my skills in behavior support, supervision, communication, and creating safe, engaging environments where children can learn and thrive. In August, I will be pursuing a Master of Science in Human Factors Engineering here in the Bay Area and am seeking a full-time/part-time caregiver position while completing my graduate studies. I am dependable, patient, and attentive, and I enjoy building positive relationships with children and families. I am passionate about supporting children's growth, development, and well-being and look forward to providing compassionate and reliable care.

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
