My name is Aaliyah, I was born in SF, Ca. I’m bilingual in Spanish. I’ve work with children since I was 16 and help with my brother who is 14 and my god daughter who is 7. I love spending time with both of them when away from school and work. I enjoy helping children learn new things,reading books, assisting children with homework assignments.

Hi, my name is Karla. I’m the oldest of six siblings, ranging in age from 2 to 19, I’ve been around little ones my whole life! I’m originally from South San Francisco and currently studying at Saddleback College, working toward a career in teaching. I began babysitting my own siblings, then started caring for children of my mom’s friends. After high school, I managed a shoe store for two years, but I realized my passion was working with children. Since then, I’ve spent the last four years in licensed daycare centers, starting in a preschool classroom, then moving to toddlers, and currently a lead teacher in Pre-K. I also have some experience with infants and am very open to working with them more. Working in a variety of daycare settings has exposed me to different teaching philosophies and approaches to early childhood development. I genuinely enjoy helping kids reach their developmental milestones and creating a positive, supportive environment for them to grow.

I'm certified as a newborn care specialist and pediatric sleep consultant. I've spent many years working on and off with children in various roles including assisting in after-school art and reading programs, instructing children's fitness classes, and most consistently, as a nanny focused on infant/toddler development. I love being around kids of all different ages and am inspired by their growing curiosity and excitement to learn about life!

Booked by 3 families in Montara, CA

Hi all! I’m a recent UC Berkeley graduate, and I’m also very passionate about Education and child-care which is why I’ve been tutoring, mentoring and babysitting for a while. At my most previous job, I worked at a Montessori school where I was an assistant teacher. I developed and implemented lesson plans and curriculum with assistance from Head teacher and learned to create a safe learning environment by establishing classroom rules and ensuring students follow behavioral standards. I love nannying and learning about how every child’s mind is unique. In my free time, I enjoy reading, traveling, and hanging out with family. I have references and a resume if needed.

“ Wonderful Babysitter with a Positive Attitude I've had the pleasure of having Amanda as my child's babysitter, and I couldn't be more satisfied. Amanda consistently brings a positive attitude to her work, which instantly puts my child at ease. She's incredibly thoughtful and attentive to my child's needs, always ensuring that they are comfortable and happy. I appreciate how proactive she is in engaging my child in fun and educational activities. Amanda is truly a gem, and I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and caring .”

"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)."
