Booked by 60 families in Mill Valley, CA

Hi, I’m Andrea! I’m a reliable and caring babysitter with over 6 years of experience supporting families in the Bay Area. I’ve worked with children of all ages—including newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids (including twins!). I also spent one full year working with a toddler girl, and I absolutely love helping little ones learn and grow. I’m a former au pair with nearly 3 years of live-in experience, and I’m always looking for ways to continue learning and improving in childcare. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated (COVID + boosters, flu shot, Tdap), and have a clean driving record with strong experience driving children to school, activities, and appointments. I can also help with light cooking, laundry, homework, Spanish lessons, pet care, and more. I’m flexible, dependable, and happy to step in when your family needs an extra hand. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones!

Andrea was great, my kids had a blast. She even apologized for not emptying our dishwasher because it was running but I never expected her to empty it to begin with. We look forward to hiring her again.

Hello! My name is Wendy. I am a reliable, warm, and experienced nanny with over 8 years of childcare experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I truly enjoy creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel happy, supported, and encouraged to grow. I love organizing creative activities, outdoor play, reading time, and educational games that stimulate curiosity, confidence, and development. I have a degree in Business Administration with a minor in Banking Internal Control, which has helped me develop strong organizational skills, responsibility, and attention to detail in everything I do. In addition to my childcare experience, I am also a Dental Assistant and have knowledge in children’s dental care and hygiene. I enjoy helping kids learn healthy habits like brushing their teeth properly in a fun and positive way. I am naturally very patient, loving, and attentive. I care deeply about the children I work with and always treat them with the same care, respect, and dedication I would give to my own family. I am bilingual in Spanish and English, which allows me to communicate easily with parents and also introduce children to a second language if desired. I swam competitively in college, so I enjoy encouraging kids to stay active through swimming, sports, and movement-based activities. I also have knowledge of first aid and always prioritize children’s safety and well-being. I value open and respectful communication with parents so we can work together to support the children in the best possible way. I would love the opportunity to support your family and become a trusted caregiver for your children. Thank you for your time and I look forward to meeting you.

Punctual, warm, and prepared. Our son is a ball of energy and Wendy was up for it all!

I’m Yeraldine from Colombia, I love interacting with and taking care of children. I have more than 10 years of babysitting experience, also 15 years of experience helping to raise my brother and I worked as a teacher in my country. I am a lovely and enthusiastic girl who loves taking on any all child care responsibilities.

Yeraldine was awesome right off the bat! She was upbeat and engaging, and could read my child well when she was feeling hesitant or tired. She was creative, positive, and confident- -clearly experienced, smart, and happy to help. Would love to hire her again!

Booked by 15 families in Mill Valley, CA

I have taken care of children since I was very young. I raised three boys who are now young adults. I have always loved children and enjoy engaging in all kinds of activities with them from imaginative play, reading books, cooking and exploring the great outdoors. I take this job very seriously and realize that you are entrusting me with your most precious treasure. I put care into the children as if they were my own but also defer to the parents as to their parenting practices, so that we are always on the same page. I am waiting for a family who will find value and appreciate what I have to offer as an experienced mother and someone who truly loves and values quality childcare. I have expertise with newborns, babies and toddlers. I have been a first-time caregiver for many families. This is not just a job for me. It’s something that I love. I also speak Spanish which I could teach your child if you so desire. I have been screened and background tested through a Nanny agency in Marin called Rent A Parent which I have been doing temporary work for.

"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

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."
