My name is Nazlı, and I am a 29-year-old caregiver from Türkiye. I hold a bachelor's degree in International Relations, and throughout my studies I worked as a nanny, caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. In addition, I have completed a professional childcare certification, which has further strengthened my knowledge and skills in providing high-quality care. Working with children has always been my passion. I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where they can learn, grow, and feel supported. I have always built strong, trusting relationships with the children I care for through patience, kindness, and open communication. I consider myself responsible, reliable, organized, and highly patient. I believe one of my greatest strengths is knowing how to balance being a fun, caring companion while also providing the structure, guidance, and consistency that children need. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, encouraging positive behavior, and supporting each child's emotional and developmental needs. I also worked as an au pair in the United States, where I cared for a 23-month-old toddler and an infant. I began caring for the baby when she was just 3 months old, and later welcomed and cared for a newborn sibling after the family's second child was born during my stay. This experience gave me valuable hands-on experience caring for multiple young children of different ages while adapting to the changing needs of a growing family. After completing my au pair program, I continued working as a professional nanny. I cared for an infant from the age of 2 months until the child turned 14 months, further strengthening my experience with newborn and infant care, developmental milestones, and daily routines. Most recently, I have been caring for twin boys for the past two years. As they will be starting school this September, I am now looking for a new opportunity where I can continue providing loving, dependable, and high-quality care to another family. For the health and safety of the families I work with, I am fully vaccinated against COVID-19 (including two booster doses) and have also recently received my influenza and Tdap vaccinations.

I am a former preschool teacher, currently turned nanny, with 20 years of experience working with children. I am a fun, loving person and offer more than the typical babysitter as I focus on supporting the overall development of children I work with. My experience ranges from birth to adulthod, including children with special needs, as I hold a certificate of specialization in special needs education and have several years of experience working with diverse abilities. I have two children of my own; a 23 year old son and a 27 year old daughter who graduated from Stanford. I am a native Spanish speaker, CPR certified, and a registered sitter with Trustline for added peace of mind of families. Note: if your child is sick or anyone in your household, please let me know, so we can discuss the risk. I don’t offer cleaning or cooking services.

Hello, Parents! I’m a student locally at Foothill College, and a native to Mountain View, CA. I have two younger siblings which have contributed lots to my experience with children and also a few regular families who I babysit for from time to time from Stevenson elementary! I love hanging out with kids especially in the outdoors, outside play time, walks, bike rides, exploring parks, local museums, if it’s a kid friendly and fun place - I’m there! I am open to any age group, as I’ve had experience with it all. Time goes by when you’re having fun which is why I love picking up any babysitting jobs that come my way, because as a college student it’s a win win for me when it doesn’t even feel like work. I’m patient, nurturing, creative, responsible, bilingual(spanish), and fun to hangout with (can be fact checked by some previous kiddos I’ve cared for:) ). If you have any further questions feel free to ask!

I’m Lalida, and I’m excited to offer child care, senior care, and household help. I’ve been babysitting since I was 24, and I’ve cared for children of all ages, from newborns to toddlers and even twins. I speak English, Thai, and Cambodian, so I can connect with different families. I enjoy doing fun activities with kids like crafts, tutoring, and dance lessons, as well as playing games that help them learn. I can also help with cooking, cleaning, and senior care. I’m comfortable working with pets, too! If you need a reliable and caring sitter, I’d love to help your family.

We have known Lalida for awhile and she’s been great with our two kids. She is attentive and asks all the right questions, willing to help and very kind and nurturing. She is fun and is playful so our kids like having her around

Booked by 2 families in Mountain View, CA

I’m a kind-hearted and easygoing childcare provider who truly enjoys spending time with kids. With 3–5 years of experience, I bring warmth, patience, and a positive attitude to every family I work with. I’m flexible and happy to help with anything — whether it’s playtime, meals, or just being a calm and loving presence. Your children will always be in good hands with me

Hajar was wonderful! This was our second time working with her, and we were so impressed that she remembered all of our specific preferences from the first session. She is very gentle and friendly with our baby, and we love that she is proactive—she immediately looked for household chores to tackle while the baby was sleeping without being asked. She is also extremely punctual and always arrives a few minutes early. For fellow parents, it’s worth noting that Hajar is currently working on her English, but she can handle basic conversation without any problems. For more detailed instructions, we used Google Translate and everything worked out perfectly for us. Our family truly enjoys having her help. Highly recommended!

"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)."
