Booked by 15 families in Montara, CA

Hi families! My name is Lais, and I am a dedicated professional nanny with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I have extensive experience caring for children from newborns all the way to teenagers, and I am comfortable and confident with kids of all ages. I also have specialized experience supporting neurodivergent children, and I adapt my care to a variety of approaches—whether that’s gentle parenting, Montessori, RIE, or other philosophies. Despite earning my degree, I decided to continue my career as a nanny because I am deeply passionate about building strong, trusting relationships with families. I plan to grow in this field as a lifelong professional and bring my psychology background into my work every day. I am happy to provide references and my resume upon request, and I’m always available to respond to any texts from families who want to know more about my experience. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. I look forward to connecting and learning about your family’s unique needs! I look forward to connecting and learning about your family’s unique needs!

Lais is an experienced caregiver who had many strategies to handle our rambunctious children!

Booked by 27 families in Montara, CA

Hi, I’m Cristina! I have over six years of experience caring for children from 10 months to 14 years old. I love babysitting because I enjoy doing fun projects with kids and taking them to the park. My interest in childcare really grew from helping take care of my little cousin with Down syndrome, which taught me a lot about patience and how rewarding it is to care for children. A little about me: I love reading, spending time with family and friends, and learning new things. I also have a dog that I love taking to the beach! I’m open to traveling with families as well. Thanks so much for taking the time to read a little about me!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
