Booked by 1 family in La Honda, CA

Hi! I’m Şule, an experienced and caring nanny with 6+ years of childcare experience, working with children from newborns and infants through school-age. I have experience with multiple families and am comfortable with everything from infant care and sleep routines to school pick-ups, activities, outings, and helping children build age-appropriate independence. I’m CPR & First Aid certified and have additional training in Montessori, infant sleep, infant massage, sensory play, infant sign language, and newborn care. I also have a background in education, which helps me create fun, engaging, and developmentally appropriate activities for children. I’m reliable, patient, organized, and genuinely enjoy building a warm and trusting relationship with both children and parents. I’m currently looking for a long-term position in the Bay Area, and references are available upon request.

$50 per hour for 1 child

I am a professional childcare provider with more than 20 years of experience working with children from newborns through school age in both private-home and early childhood education settings. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Behavioral Health Science with an Emphasis in Childhood & Adolescence Disorders and am currently pursuing a Master of Science in Leadership. My experience includes newborn and infant care, toddlers and preschoolers, school-age children, multiples, and children with autism, ADHD, PDA, and other developmental needs. I am also a trained Newborn Care Specialist, Infant & Toddler Specialist, 200-hour yoga instructor, and am certified in pediatric CPR and First Aid. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, respected, and understood. My caregiving style is warm, active, developmentally informed, and responsive to each child’s individual personality and needs. I enjoy getting children out into the community, exploring nature, reading, creative play, movement, and creating experiences that support their independence and development. I am available for babysitting, backup care, temporary care, school closures, nanny coverage, and occasional longer-term needs throughout the Bay Area. I especially enjoy developing ongoing relationships with families so children have a familiar, trusted caregiver when their regular care isn’t available.

“Katie has been a wonderful part of our family’s life, first as our full-time nanny and now as a trusted caregiver and friend to our son. She has a special ability to connect with children, particularly neurodivergent kids. She has brought valuable insight with her understanding of autism and is thoughtful and intentional about helping kids navigate emotions, social interactions, boundaries, and accountability. Katie is genuinely invested in our son’s growth and well-being. She enjoys spending time with him, supporting his interests, and accompanying him on outings and adventures. She can often engage him in conversations and learning moments that might otherwise be challenging. We genuinely appreciate the care, dedication, and positive influence she has brought to our son’s life and are happy to recommend her!”

Joanna 1 review
$27 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am a warm, attentive and enthusiastic person who loves taking care of children and people of all ages. I have 10 years of experience working with children, first as a Montessori preschool teacher assistant, then as a day care worker for infants and toddlers and also as a substitute teacher. As a substitute teacher I had a preference for special education and I enjoy working with special needs children of all ages. I have training in Montessori Early Childhood Education and I have really seen the benefits of the Montessori Method, especially in the early years. I love being outside and exploring in nature. I have a love for learning and I love to help children to discover the joy of learning and nurture their creativity. Thank you for considering me as a caregiver!

“Joanna has been babysitting my son since he was two; he’s now four. I love the energy she brings—she’s incredibly musical and creative. She often brings her guitar and sings with a beautiful voice that my son adores. It lifts not only his spirits but mine as well. She’s a blessing to any household that hires her.”

"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)."
