Alicia $40 per hour for 1 child

I’m a Household Manager and caregiver with several years of experience supporting private families in the Bay Area. I help with childcare, schedules, errands, home organization, and daily routines, always bringing calm, reliability, and attention to detail. I’m naturally proactive, organized, and nurturing. Families describe me as someone they fully trust — dependable, discreet, and easy to be around. I truly enjoy creating a smooth, supportive environment where both parents and children feel cared for. I also have a background in administrative support and digital tools, which helps me stay organized and assist with a variety of household and personal tasks. I’m looking for a long-term position where I can grow with a family and be a positive, steady presence in their lives.

I’m compassionate, patient, dependable, and highly organized. I communicate effectively, remain calm under pressure, and adapt quickly to changing situations. Caring for my family has strengthened my ability to multitask, solve problems, and put others’ well-being first—qualities that I believe make me a dedicated and capable caregiver.

Maria Olivia $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Olivia, and I bring over 7 years of healthcare experience, including my background as a NICU nurse in the Philippines and as a Medical Virtual Assistant. My experience has allowed me to care for newborns, children, adults, and seniors, giving me a strong understanding of the importance of safety, patience, compassion, and dependable care. I’m happy to assist families with childcare, senior care, companionship, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and everyday activities. I’m responsible, organized, attentive, and always mindful of each person’s individual needs and comfort. My healthcare background has taught me how to remain calm and prepared in different situations while providing care with kindness and respect. I understand that inviting someone into your home is a big decision, and my goal is to give families peace of mind knowing their loved ones are in caring and capable hands. I would love the opportunity to learn more about your family and how I can help make your day a little easier!

"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)."
