Hello! My name is Anna Parente, and I have over 6 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to school-age kids. I am a warm, reliable, and patient caregiver who loves helping children learn, grow, and feel safe. My experience includes newborn care, infant feeding, diaper changes, sleep routines, tummy time, developmental activities, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and school-age care. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have worked as both a nanny and overnight newborn caregiver. In addition, I am a Certified Postpartum Doula and Certified Newborn Care Specialist (NCS), which gives me specialized training in newborn care, feeding support, sleep routines, and supporting families during the postpartum period. I am based in Redwood City and serve families throughout the Bay Area. I look forward to connecting with your family and learning how I can help! 🩵

We were looking for a caretaker for taking care of our 10 month old daughter for a month, before she started day care. Fortunately for us and our daughter, we ended up meeting Anna through urbansitter. Anna is extremely loving, sincere, hardworking and responsible. She quickly ramped up to our daughter's schedule, in a matter of 1-2 days. She was always on time, flexible when we needed her for a couple of extra hours during the end of the day. Within a matter of 1 week, she gained our complete trust. Her responsibilities included watching over our daughter, keeping her engaged, feeding her milk and solids, putting her for her day naps, laundry. Aside from these she would also proactively help us with some minor chores. She also keeps her environment very clean and organized. We also have a 2 year old dog who is extremely playful and loving. Anna was super friendly with our dog too. Overall, I would highly recommend her for families out there. The only reason we couldn't continue with her was because our daughter started day care.

I grew up in Nebraska with my mother having an in-home daycare and helped out with it after school and during the summer(from age 10 or 11 till 19 when I moved to California) I nannied a few summers and worked for a group home for mentally disabled teens and adults. Once I moved to California I worked at the daycare in 24 hour fitness. I then nannied for a child from 14months till about 2 and a half. He sadly (for me) went to Montessori School full time. I then jumped back into working with adults with disabilities. Then I worked with a kid with disabilities for a few years and moved onto a school. Which I currently do now I work in a sped classroom in an elementary school.

We loved her. She was so relaxed and confident around our son and he loved her right away. I strongly recommend her and will definitely use her again

I've always had a passion for helping children develop and grow. With over 25 years of experience, I have the skills and knowledge to provide a safe and nurturing environment for your child from new born, toddler and preschoolers. I'm extremely patient, and friendly. I know how to communicate effectively with parents about their child's day. I follow the parents' lead in enforcing household rules and am comfortable caring for one child or two children at a time. I'm a big kid at heart. I'm not afraid being silly with kids. I enjoy playing all sorts of games with children, both indoors and outdoors. Also love to have my own story time, music dancing and art class with a little one !!! In addition to my Early Childhood Development coursework, I have First Aid and CPR training, and am TrustLine certified. I also speak Chinese and English. As a caregiver, I'm committed to fostering a positive and enriching experience for both children and their families.

We have been fortunate to have Kelly help raise our daughters (3 years and 10 months old) for the past 2.5 years. During that time she has been a wonderful part of our family. Our daughters adore Kelly. She brings a fun, warm energy with enthusiasm daily. She reads and sings with our girls throughout the day in both English and Chinese. Every day, she takes our daughter outside on a walk or visit to the library. She is also great at mealtimes getting our kids to eat full meals. With our older daughter she would help with art projects. She is attentive and gentle with our 10 month old. She shows genuine affection and care for our girls and they clearly love her. Kelly is reliable - she shows up on time (typically early) ALWAYS and comes in ready to care for our daughters right away. We’ve needed her help for 10 hours each day, and she remains attentive to our kids all day. Kelly is conscientious - she always changes the baby’s diaper before handing her off to us. And she is dedicated - she worked overtime hours when we needed extra help when my wife went into labor with our second. We especially appreciate Kelly understands the importance of the big variables to solve for with young kids - full sleep and good meals - and she communicates regularly about their naps and appetite. Altogether, we’ve had a wonderful experience with Kelly. We would happily and readily recommend Kelly to another family.

Hi families! I have extensive experience caring for children back in my hometown, and here in the U.S. I worked as an Au Pair for two wonderful families. With one family, I cared for two little ones under the age of 2, and with another, I looked after three energetic boys ages 3, 5, and 7. These experiences gave me strong skills in supporting different age groups, managing routines, and keeping kids engaged and happy. I truly enjoy spending time with children, helping them learn, explore, and have fun in a safe environment.

"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)."
