Hello my name is Xoe I have lived in SF for almost 6 years. I originally moved to work with kids and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and transitioned into the teen mental health space. Prior to this I worked as a nanny short term with different families ages ranging from 5 months to 12 yo. Over the last 5+ years I have worked with numerous kids of various ages and abilities. I have experience and knowledge working with children with ADHD, behavioral issues, ASD, and mental health struggles. I have experience with Montessori style teaching, Feber method, and solid introduction. I recently completed my first year of my masters in social work program with an emphasis on early childhood education. I am CPR and first aid certified for infants, children, and adults via the Red Cross.

“Xoe took care of my 3.5 year old son for a week and did a fantastic job. My son opened up to her quickly and enjoyed spending time with her. She is attentive and keeps kids engaged and active. I would highly recommend Xoe for any childcare position.”

Booked by 13 families in Mill Valley, CA

Hello! My name is Charlotte. I'm a 31 year-old Bay Area native currently working as a postdoctoral neuroethicist at UCLA. I also work as a community doula (trained in Oakland, CA) and have taught social justice oriented yoga classes in SF and virtually. I love working with families and while my schedule doesn't allow for full or part time care, occasional care is what I'd love to offer. I have over 10 years of experience as a babysitter, full time nanny and elementary school teacher. I've worked at a preschool and at my university's childcare center, and most recently, as a teacher for 3-8 year olds in Cambodia. I'm looking for doula work (prenatal, childbirth, or postpartum) or occasional nannying work. I absolutely adore children and working with them is such an honor to me. I’m responsible, creative and energetic and excited to speak further with you about working with you and your family! I'm also fortunate enough to be fully vaccinated and am happy to provide references upon request. Thanks so much, Charlotte

My Bio I have over 5 years of childcare experience, a background in child development and behavior, and 2 years as an au pair. I have worked with multiple children and various age groups, allowing me to adapt quickly to different personalities and needs. I am known for being adaptable, easygoing, supportive, caring, and dedicated to my work, ensuring that children feel safe, loved, and engaged under my supervision. I am a good driver, ensuring that children are transported safely to and from school, activities, and appointments. I am well-versed in organization, meal preparation, and creating structured routines for children, including morning, afternoon, and nighttime routines. I excel in keeping children engaged through playtime, homework assistance, and various activities that promote their development.

“We hired Kayla as a part time nanny. She has surpassed all of our expectations and we feel incredibly lucky to get to work with her. She is calm, confident, proactive, reliable and considerate. We couldn’t ask for a better nanny and trust her implicitly. Any family would be lucky to have 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)."
