Melissa $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am a 47-year-old career Nanny with 15+years of experience and a single Mom to a wonderful 16-year-old. My current contract ends the beginning of October so I am open to a new position starting mid October. I nanny for two babies(now toddlers) full time. They are part of a nanny share set up and I am hoping to find that same position again. Being a Nanny genuinely brings me so much joy and fulfillment and I strive to make you babies feel safe and loved under my care. I'm lucky to say that I love my job and don't dread going to work. As a mom, I understand the importance of providing gentle, safe and nurturing care to others children. I care for them like I would my own. I look forward to hearing from you!

Yuting $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I go by Amy, I am a Chinese Asian American from the Bay Area. I have experience working at a summer camp for K-5 as-well as babysitting. I would describe myself as a friendly, talkative, funny, and reliable person. I prioritize communication, this incudes double checking with parents as well as always being on time unless communicated beforehand. I am really good at giving advice, as-well as encouraging kids on learning new skills or pushing them to try harder. I enjoy art, sports, cooking, and fun activities. As someone who prioritizes protein and health in meals, I am really good at cooking tasty meals nutritional content in mind. I am fluent in both English and Chinese Mandarin. For first meetings I would prefer to only take payment thru the website in order to prevent scams, after that, cash is okay! Please don’t be afraid to contact me if interested! Hire me now if you are interested in a fun, engaged, youthful, and knowledgeable sitter for your kids! I hope we can work together to create a respectful, communicative, and safe environment for both us and your kids! I can maybe stay overnight after trust has been meet and safety is ensured as long as I have a room to sleep in with privacy. I don’t currently own a car but I do have my license and I would be perfectly fine with driving your vehicle as long as the insurance is on the car and I am guaranteed to be covered as-well (it’s all about feeling safe). Please keep inquires and messages appropriate and don’t message about anything outside of my services!

"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)."
