Jamila | Infant, Toddler, Childcare Specialist | Rapid-Response Backup, Last Minute Care Hi, I’m Jamila! I specialize in rapid-response backup, occasional, temporary, recurring care for infants, toddlers, and busy executive families across the Bay Area. I have experience nannying all around the USA- in NYC, Hawaii, Arizona, Los Angeles, Portland OR, and Las Vegas. Why Families Hire Me: Background and Safety: Honorably discharged U.S. Coast Guard veteran. Experienced with high-profile/corporate families; fully comfortable signing NDAs. Specialized Education: Child Development, Physical Education, Business, and Sports Medicine coursework (Foothill College); certifications in Community Health Work, Case Management, Social Work, Crisis Intervention, Peer Support, Mental Health First Aid and Reiki. I am trained in sexual assault and domestic violence survivor advocacy. I am a classically trained actress with studies in LA and NYC, a military trained public affairs specialist and also briefly attended The Art Students League in NYC, the Stanford Summer Session, and Parsons University for fine art. I currently attend San Mateo College. I am a double major in arts/media and sociology. I studied child development, sports medicine, physical education and kinesiology at Foothill College, before transferring to San Mateo, with a 3.87, and made the Dean’s List. Engaging and Creative: I bring age-appropriate art, museum trips, and interactive learning to every shift to keep children active and engaged. My education in child development and art keeps my childcare fun, yet educational for the children. I have been doing theater since I was 4, so I understand the importance of the arts in childcare. I also am studying Hindi, Urdu, Mandarin, Japanese, Korean, and Egyptian Arabic in my spare time. I’m happy to tutor your children in languages and art. I am a member of SF MOMA, Cal Academy, Chinese Historical Society & De Young. I am happy to do museum field trips. Booking & Availability: I take last-minute requests and short-notice shifts! If you need coverage for times not currently listed on my calendar, message me directly. Note: I accommodate short-term and occasional coverage, as well as nanny-share setups. Please notify me in advance if your child is sick so we can discuss proper care arrangements. Please note I have a 4 hour minimal booking requirement. You are welcome to book less hours, but I still require a minimal pay equivalent to 4 hours.

Booked by 155 families in La Honda, CA

Hello everyone! My name is Andrea, and I recently graduated from the University of Utah with a degree in Bioinformatics and a minor in Human Development.I’m open to opportunities throughout the Bay Area, including live-in positions, date-night gigs, full-time roles, or multiple part-time positions. I have over seven years of experience working with families as a babysitter, nanny, tutor, and household manager. My experience ranges from occasional/date-night care to long-term family support. I am Red Cross certified in Babysitting, CPR, and First Aid, and I am currently completing my CNA certification. Over the past year, I have also completed Newborn Care Specialist coursework and am actively working toward certification hours. I have experience caring for children from 6 weeks to 11 years old, as well as tutoring students ages 5–17 across K–12 subjects. I speak conversational Spanish and would be happy to incorporate language learning into daily activities with your children. My approach to childcare is calm, attentive, and highly engaged. I value gentle parenting principles and draw inspiration from Montessori and RIE philosophies. In addition to childcare, I’m very comfortable assisting with household management tasks, anticipating parents’ needs, maintaining routines, and helping keep the home running smoothly. I also absolutely love pets and am very comfortable around animals. I have a valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and am comfortable traveling as needed. I also understand the importance of professionalism, discretion, and respecting families’ privacy, and I have previous experience working with high-profile families under confidentiality agreements. Excellent references are available upon request. I truly enjoy building long-term relationships with families and creating a warm, supportive environment where children feel safe, encouraged, and cared for. I’d love to connect and see if I might be a good fit for your family!

$33 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 7 families in La Honda, CA

I’m a 26-year-old nanny with over two years of experience as an au pair and several years working with families throughout the Bay Area. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged kids and I’m currently getting certified as a postpartum doula. I studied law in Brazil and occasionally help my mom with her law firm, which has strengthened my organization, responsibility and communication skills. I’m fluent in Portuguese and English, speak basic Spanish and I used to play soccer in Brazil, which helps me bring fun, energy and active play into my caregiving. I’m caring, reliable, and dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing and engaging environment where children can thrive.

Dominick arrived on time, and my 7yo and 9yo boys had lots of fun with her! When my husband arrived home, they were flying paper airplanes together. We would love to have her back!

"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)."
