Booked by 2 families in Olema, CA

Hello there! I'm a recent graduate from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, where I majored in Food Science. I've returned to my hometown of Marin and will be here for the foreseeable future. Kids and animals hold a special place in my heart, and I've been babysitting since I was 12 years old. With years of experience, I've learned how to create a safe and nurturing environment for children of all ages. I love the outdoors, whether it's a trip to the park, a nature walk, or a fun outdoor game, I'll make sure your children are entertained! One of the advantages of my current situation is my highly flexible schedule. I'm here to accommodate your needs and ensure a stress-free experience for you and your family. I am looking forward to whatever opportunities arise! Feel free to reach out at any time!

On time, very sweet and calm. Great with our 15 month old daughter. She doesn't always warm up to sitters and was immediately happy with Mia. Will definitely hire her again!

Laura Sofia $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello, dear future families, My name is Sofia, I’m 22 years old, and I bring over three years of hands-on experience caring for babies and children of various ages. My approach to childcare is built on love, joy, patience, and unwavering support, values that guide me in creating a nurturing and positive environment for every child I care for. What I love most about this work is being part of a child’s journey as they grow, learn, and begin to understand and express their emotions. Every day is different, some filled with joy, others with challenges, and I’m here to support them through it all with calmness, empathy, and good communication. I’m also an excellent cook, a confident driver, and a strong swimmer. I’m very active and creative, and I love organizing engaging activities, from story time sessions to fun adventures at the park. My goal is to make each day enriching, safe, and filled with joy. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family and help your child thrive! Warmly, Sofía

I’m 35 years old and originally from Brazil. I moved to the U.S. in 2014 and have been working as a nanny ever since. Before coming here, I taught basic English to children of all ages, and over the years I’ve had the privilege of caring for kids ranging from newborns to teenagers. In addition to my work as a nanny, I’m also a certified birth and postpartum doula. This experience has deepened my understanding of newborn care, family dynamics, and how to support parents during such an important and sensitive transition. I’m very comfortable with infant care, recovery support, routines, and creating a calm, nurturing environment for both baby and parents. Alongside childcare, I have a genuine passion for keeping spaces clean, organized, and well-structured. I believe a tidy and intentional home creates a more peaceful and efficient environment for everyone. Whether it’s organizing toys, maintaining play areas, or helping the household run more smoothly, I truly enjoy making spaces feel fresh and aligned. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out — I’d love to chat. My video is a bit outdated, but please feel free to call me anytime 😊 Hope to hear from you soon, Laisa

"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

"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)."
