$32 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 7 families in Knightsen, CA

Hello I am Nayeli- here’s a little bit about myself; I am bilingual (English and Spanish) and I have always enjoyed working/being around kids from newborns to school ages. I have worked one on one and multiple at once as well. I am a mother myself of a 4 year old who keeps me busy and pretty active. Dependable and reliable- communication is key. I can help/assist with homework, after school pick up, keeping them busy/entertained. That meaning playing in the yard, play room, coloring, reading, play-doh, imaginary play, building forts, I am all up for it. I love learning from every child (they are all unique). I have references that I can provide as well from previous families I have worked with in the past. I am CPR certified in both adults and infant/children.

Booked by 3 families in Knightsen, CA

Hi! My name is Deja, I am 22 years old and I am a current senior at Grambling State University. I am offering child care, pet care and household services. I have been caring for children since I was 14 and absolutely love it. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, kids and pre-teens. Each age brings their own joys and challenges. My responsibilities have included, but not limited to driving to and from school/extracurriculars, arts and crafts, homework help and even dance and cheer lessons. I can also work as a household assistant. Picking up kids, cleaning, a little cooking, laundry and running any errands. I am mildly allergic to cats but happy to work with families with all furry friends. Hope to hear from you! ☺️

“Deja did an amazing job looking after my ten month old son, highly recommended!”

Skyy $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Skyy ! I'm a dependable, patient, and caring sitter who genuinely enjoys working with children. I’m 22 & an older sister of a 14 year old, 9 year old and 2 year old so my experience with kids runs years long before it became my profession. I love keeping kids engaged through reading, coloring, walks, playground trips, and age-appropriate activities. I'm comfortable caring for children of different ages, including infants and toddlers, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I'd love the opportunity to become someone your family can trust and rely on!

Thais $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Thais, and I have over 6 years of childcare experience, including working as an au pair and nanny in the Bay Area. Caring for children is something I truly enjoy, and I love building strong relationships with both kids and parents. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-age children. My responsibilities have included preparing meals, helping with morning and bedtime routines, diaper changes, bottle feeding, school drop-offs and pick-ups, homework assistance, organizing activities, and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. I enjoy taking children to parks, libraries, story times, playgrounds, and other age-appropriate activities that encourage learning and development. Families describe me as reliable, patient, trustworthy, organized, and proactive. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident that their children are safe, happy, and well cared for. I always communicate openly with families and strive to provide consistency and support in their daily routines. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have my own reliable transportation, and am comfortable driving children to school, extracurricular activities, appointments, and outings. I also don’t mind helping with light housekeeping related to the children, meal preparation, children’s laundry, tidying play areas, and keeping things organized around the house. Look forward to connecting with a wonderful family! 😊

Kaitlyn $27 per hour for 1 child

My name is Kaitlyn, and I am a dedicated, nurturing nanny with over two years of experience caring for children ages 1 and up. I am CPR certified and committed to providing a safe, engaging, and loving environment where children can thrive emotionally and developmentally. I am reliable, patient, and attentive to each family’s unique needs. Along with childcare, I gladly assist with light household chores, running errands, and helping keep the household organized, allowing parents more time and peace of mind. I also love dogs and cats and am comfortable caring for pets as part of my role. ✨ Fun fact: I love kids, families, and fur babies—but I draw the line at snakes and pet spiders lol! I take pride in building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents and strive to be a positive, dependable presence in the home. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience, warmth, and personality to a family seeking a trustworthy nanny.

"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)."
