Alexa $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Alexa. I am 24 years old and have been working in the childcare industry since I was 20. Throughout my experience, I have had the opportunity to work with children ranging from as young as three months old through four years old. I was part of a continuity-of-care program, which allowed me to build strong, lasting relationships with the same children and families for up to two years as they grew and developed. I began my experience working with infants and later transitioned into toddler and preschool classrooms. I have a passion for creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel supported and encouraged to learn. I have an Associate’s Degree in Early Childhood Development, CPR certification, and experience communicating and working closely with families and team members. I am dependable, patient, hardworking, and always willing to learn and grow professionally.

Paloma 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

I have been a Childcare Provider for two years 1/2, and have developed a deep passion for working with children. I enjoy engaging with their happy energy and creating fun, enriching activities that keep them engaged and learning. Equally important, I provide families with reliable support and peace of mind, allowing them time to rest or attend to their personal needs. Families trust that their children are safe, well-cared for, and supported in a nurturing environment whenever I am present.

“Hello, I highly recommend Paloma. She is friendly, highly reliable, never late and always on time. My kids love her and look forward to seeing her. She's also a mother so she knows the wants and needs of children. The best caregiver yet!”

Alicia $40 per hour for 1 child

I’m a Household Manager and caregiver with several years of experience supporting private families in the Bay Area. I help with childcare, schedules, errands, home organization, and daily routines, always bringing calm, reliability, and attention to detail. I’m naturally proactive, organized, and nurturing. Families describe me as someone they fully trust — dependable, discreet, and easy to be around. I truly enjoy creating a smooth, supportive environment where both parents and children feel cared for. I also have a background in administrative support and digital tools, which helps me stay organized and assist with a variety of household and personal tasks. I’m looking for a long-term position where I can grow with a family and be a positive, steady presence in their lives.

"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)."
