Hi there! My name is Larissa, I’m 27 years old and I'm from Brazil. I'm an experienced care provider living in the Sunset District . I have being working as a nanny for about 7 consecutive years and I also worked as an au pair for 2 years prior to that. I have experience with kids from the of age 4 months to 13 years old but I have mostly worked with infants and toddlers in the last 7 years. Currently I have been working full time for a family with a 3 years old ( I have been working with them since she was 10 months old) but since she’s about to start school in September, I’m looking for my next full time family. The two previous families I have worked with had multiple kids ( between 04 months old to 6 years old). I’m comfortable caring for more than one child at a time. I'm a very active person. I love spending the day out with the kids in the park, library, museums, zoo and etc. I drive my own car with my currently nanny family and I feel comfortable driving kids to any classes or activities they might have. I’m a loving and caring person and I love to help the kids learn and explore in a safe, warm and joyful environment. Arts and Crafts, age-appropriate cooking, and a storytelling are some of my favorite activities. -I’m also experienced with sleep training, starting babies on solid food and helping them learn how to crawl, walk and develop new skills. -I’m a good driver and I have a California DL (+7 years driving ) -I'm comfortable with cats and dogs -I’m CPR certified -I’m fully vaccinated -I have great references -I’m open to nanny share - I’m available for a full time job starting September 20th. Please feel free to contact me. Thank you, Larissa

Larissa is incredible! Our daughters adore her and she is an absolute gem

Parents, do you need a break? I’m Deborah, nanny extraordinaire, postpartum doula, family assistant and Newborn Care Specialist. I’m also a Trustline certified, Covid vaccinated and CPR certified well experienced child care provider with a background in early childhood education providing care for children ranging in age from newborns to school age. This includes twins as well as nanny share experience and I have built long standing relationships with many of my families. As a certified Newborn Care Specialist I’m especially looking to help mothers with their newborns preferably on overnight shifts. This is my link for newborn care.[removed] In addition to being mature, attentive, dependable, active and organized, I’m also able to implement healthy nap and feeding routines for infants and toddlers and have a high standard for hygiene. You can rest assured knowing your children are safe under my care as I’m CPR and First Aid certified and have the necessary life-saving skills to care for your child. In addition, I am a non smoker, willing to do light housework, mommy chores and am reliably punctual. Also, should you need me to transport your children, I have my own car, car seats and an immaculate driving record. I choose to be a childcare provider because I have a genuine love of children. I I love spending time with them being silly and watching them thrive and grow under my care. I also love their sense of humor, their curiosity and most of all their honesty. Finally, if you’re looking for a trusted, kind, experienced child care provider or family assistant with a “can do” attitude look no further. And did I say I love to cook? Please read my reviews and reach out anytime. Thank you and I look forward to getting to know you and your family.

Deborah watched my newborn daughter for a day. She’s awesome! She has a warm and nurturing personality and lots of experience/expertise in newborn care. I’ve hired many sitters and Deborah’s care and knowledge really stood out in her care for my newborn daughter. She also helped tidy our kitchen area and fold clothes for us. I'll absolutely be booking her again.

Booked by 77 families in Larkspur, CA

Hi my name is Juana, I've been working with kids for 20+ years. I enjoy seeing children development physically and emotionally. I love to take kids to walks or to the park. I like cooking and I don't mind light cleaning. I have an ECE associate from SRJC, and I’m working on getting my ECE certificate. I would provide local references after we meet up in person and decide we are a good fit. Cancellation policy: because babysitting it's my main source of income I require 50% of the booking if you need to cancel a booking with 24 hours. 100% of the booking if you cancel with 12 hours notice. I require a minimum of 4 hour per booking. Also I require to get paid the time I get booked even if you come home earlier. Because I have full time nanny job and I’m protecting my regular nanny kids, I do not take care of children if they are sick with a fever over 102, or any contagious virus. Thank you for understanding. Also my rates will change if kids are from different families. -Thanks for reading.

We hired Juana to look after our 7mo old son. She was a natural from the moment she walked in our home, providing us with great comfort along with a safe and happy environment for our son. After we provided a quick overview of his routine, Juana helped right away. It’s clear she loves caring for children, and making sure the time she spends with them is quality time. Whether it be reading books, walks outside, playtime or speaking in Spanish, Juana had our son’s best interest at heart. We will be using Juana again and highly recommend her to other parents.

Booked by 12 families in Larkspur, CA

Hi, my name is Wendy! 👋🏼 ☺️ I have an Associate’s Degree of Arts: Social and Behavioral Sciences and I recently got my Bachelor’s in Psychology. Im starting a Grad School Program fall 2026 for a LMFT at USF. My academic goal is to be a kids therapist because I truly love working with kids and that is the reason why I like babysitting since I get an opportunity to work with them. I am the eldest daughter of 4 siblings who are all boys and that I cared for since they were born until they grow up older. So the reason why I am very patient and kind with babies, toddlers and children of any ages is because I got the experience from taking care of my little brothers. But since 2020 I have been a nanny for 5 different families for about 1 or 2 years with each long term family. I can surely provide phone numbers for recommendation as well! One thing about me is that I love talking to babies even though they can’t answer back ha! I like taking toddlers and babies on walks, to closest library or just to explore any part of your place! I also enjoy teaching them the numbers, colors and singing appropriate age songs with them as well! I also love reading books with them. And lastly with children of 6-10+ years old I like to play table games or even painting as well. I am also a Spanish and English Tutor at Grade Potential Tutoring and Tutor Hero - so if you would like me to teach/practice with your children Spanish or English that’s something I am willing to work with them too :)

Wendy was so helpful to us at the last minute! She quickly bonded with my two year old and I felt very comfortable leaving the two of them to play all day together. My daughter even woke up the next day asking for her, which was really sweet to see. Wendy was punctual, kind, a responsive communicator and we can't wait 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."

"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)."
