Booked by 8 families in Millbrae, CA

Hi families! My name is Darby, and I’m a caring, experienced early childhood educator based in the Bay Area. I hold a B.A. in Child and Adolescent Development from San Francisco State University, with a minor in Special Education, and have worked with children for over 10 years as both a preschool teacher and nanny. Most of my experience is with children ages 1–5, though I also have about three years of experience caring for infants as young as 6 months old. I’m passionate about creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where children can learn, grow, and thrive. I take a play-based approach to caregiving and enjoy incorporating creativity, outdoor exploration, and age-appropriate learning into each day. I look forward to partnering with families to provide dependable, personalized care that meets each child’s unique needs.

Booked by 4 families in Millbrae, CA

Hello! My name is Anaya, and I was born and raised in San Francisco. Growing up in a large family with many younger siblings naturally introduced me to caregiving at a young age and helped spark my passion for working with children. I have over six years of childcare and caregiving experience, including nannying children from infancy through age 10. I worked as a paraeducator with the San Francisco Unified School District, where I supported children with moderate to severe disabilities. This experience has strengthened my ability to be patient, attentive, adaptable, and supportive of each child’s individual needs and routines. I am also a mom to a 6-month-old, which has given me an even deeper appreciation for the level of trust parents place in the person caring for their child. I understand firsthand how important it is to have someone who is loving, dependable, communicative, and attentive to the little details. My childcare style is hands-on and engaging. I enjoy incorporating age-appropriate educational activities, reading, outdoor time, walks, sensory play, and creative activities while also respecting each family’s routines and parenting preferences. I’m comfortable with infants and toddlers, diapering, feeding, meal preparation, transportation, and light child-related tidying. I am currently looking for a consistent nanny position with a wonderful family. As a mom to a 6-month-old, I am ideally looking for a family who would be comfortable with my baby accompanying me approximately two days per week. I do have additional childcare support available for the remaining days and am happy to discuss a schedule that works well for both of our families. Caring for another infant or young child around a similar age would be an especially great fit. I love the idea of providing both children with opportunities for age-appropriate socialization, interactive play, walks, reading, sensory activities, and learning alongside one another, while still making sure each child receives plenty of individualized attention and care. I understand that every family’s needs and routines are different, and my priority is creating an arrangement where parents feel completely comfortable and their child feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I would love to connect and learn more about your family and what you’re looking for in a nanny!

Booked by 12 families in Millbrae, CA

Hi parents! My name is Chelsea (Yulan). I have 3 years of babysitting experience and a clean driving record. I’ve cared for children of all ages, starting from 3 months old, including those who are sick. I’m also happy to help with pets — walking dogs, feeding them, and more. I’m fully vaccinated, in good health, and can wear a mask if preferred. I’m reliable, responsible, and available for school pick-ups and drop-offs. I can also cook and prepare meals for children. Sometimes I help doing kids laundry as well. I also specialize in evening and date-night babysitting — helping parents enjoy their time out while I make sure everything at home stays calm and safe. Parents often tell me they feel completely at ease knowing I’m there. I’d love to help you enjoy your night out worry-free!

Thank you so much!! She did an amazing job plugging into our family on short notice and our toddler loved playing with 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."

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)."
