Zhana $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Janna and I’m a caring, responsible, and patient parent offering childcare for toddlers. As a mom of a toddler, I understand how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children can learn, play, and feel comfortable. Your child will be cared for alongside my own toddler, giving them the opportunity to socialize, share, and develop important social skills in a family-like setting. I enjoy reading books, doing arts and crafts, playing outdoors, and planning age-appropriate activities that encourage learning through play. I believe in gentle, respectful care and understand the importance of maintaining routines, healthy meals, naps, and open communication with parents. I will treat your child with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I’m committed to creating a warm, trustworthy environment where both children and parents feel happy and confident. I look forward to meeting your family!

Booked by 10 families in Larkspur, CA

Hi, I’m Julia! I’m a professional nanny based in San Rafael, with over 7 years of experience caring for children from infancy through 14 years old. I’m currently looking for a part-time morning position starting in mid-to-late August. In addition to nannying, I’m also open to House Manager and Personal Assistant opportunities, or a combination of childcare and household support. Over the past several years, I’ve had the joy of working long-term with two wonderful families. I’ve been with my current family in Mill Valley for almost 4 years, caring for three children (they were 3, 7, and 9 when I started). My previous role also lasted nearly 3 years. If needed, I’d be happy to share references upon request — both families can speak to my reliability, care, and dedication. I’m a responsible, proactive, and organized person who values open communication with parents. I love creating a nurturing and enriching environment for children, and enjoy incorporating arts & crafts, storytelling, imaginative play, outdoor adventures, and visits to parks or local kid-friendly events. I have my own car, a clean driving record, and I’m a non-smoker. I’m happy to help with school drop-offs/pick-ups, errands, meal prep, household organization, calendar management, light tidying, family assistant tasks, and other household support needs. I’m also available for date nights, overnights, and occasional weekends. If you’re looking for a dependable nanny, house manager, or family assistant to support your household, I’d love to connect!

Julia filled in for us after another sitter canceled last-minute. She was wonderful. Punctual, easy to communicate with, very friendly, and had an instant rapport with our son. They had a great time from the minute we left until the minute we got back.

Anahid 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm Anahid. I have always felt like I am part of each family I've worked for; now I always aim for the same type of fulfilling relationship with my new families. I enjoy organizing play dates, reading books to children, doing art projects with the little ones and going on nature walks to develop their sense of curiosity. With 6 years of experience, my skills also include meal prep, light housekeeping, but most importantly, creating a safe and supervised environment for your child. I speak English and Spanish, and have a squeaky clean driving record. I'd describe my personality as friendly and kind. In my free time I like to go hiking and read books. I am hard-working, responsible and reliable. Thank you for looking at my profile and considering me for your nanny and babysitting needs.

Anahid is a wonderful sitter. She connected very quickly with my girls (1.5 and 4). She's now working for us as a regular sitter. She's reliable, on time, and thinks about other things that are needed in the house (loading dishwasher, tidying the girls' rooms). Really a kind and wonderful person, and I highly recommend her!

Flavia $40 per hour for 1 child

I have up to five years of experience as a nanny, caring for children from newborns to early childhood. Families describe me as nurturing, patient, and incredibly reliable. I naturally create a calm, safe, and loving environment where children feel understood and cared for. I pay close attention to the little details—routines, feeding cues, and emotional needs—and I always show up with kindness and respect for each family’s unique style. In addition to my nanny experience, I bring specialized knowledge as a Newborn Care Specialist. I am a certified postpartum doula and have worked in this role for about two years, supporting babies from their very first day of life. I love helping new parents adjust to their newborn’s needs, guiding them through feeding, soothing, routines, and the emotional transition of welcoming a new baby. My goal is always to support families with compassion, confidence, and gentle, attentive care during this precious stage. I would be more than happy to help you and your family and be part of your kiddos’ growth, care, and daily routine.

"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

"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)."
