Bandana $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Bandana. I’m currently a BSN nursing student working toward becoming a registered nurse. I’m originally from Nepal, and caring for others has always been a meaningful part of my life. My caregiving journey started with my own family, helping care for my grandfather who had asthma and later my father during his recovery from a brain hemorrhage. Those experiences played a big role in inspiring me to pursue nursing. I also have professional caregiving experience. In 2025, I worked at a care home in Union City, where I cared for up to five clients per shift. I’ve also worked as an Activity Assistant at a rehabilitation center in Oakland, and most recently provided one-on-one care for a client in his home and continued caring for him through the later stage of his life. I also have childcare experience caring for both infants and toddlers, including a 3½-month-old baby and a 3½-year-old child. I’m comfortable with feeding, diaper changes, naps, playtime, bedtime routines, and keeping children engaged, comfortable, and safe. I really enjoy spending time with kids, playing with them, and getting to know their individual personalities. I’m CPR/BLS and First Aid certified and comfortable assisting with bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, feeding, mobility and transfers, medication reminders, meal preparation, transportation, errands, light housekeeping, and companionship. I’m patient, compassionate, dependable, respectful, and attentive, with a cheerful and caring personality. I enjoy talking, listening, laughing, and building genuine connections with the people I care for. Most importantly, I want the person I’m caring for to feel safe, comfortable, respected, and genuinely cared for. I’m new to this app, so I don’t have many reviews or references showing on my profile yet, but I can definitely provide references from families I’ve worked with. I completely understand how important it is to feel comfortable and confident about the person caring for your loved one or children, so I’m also happy to answer any questions and connect beforehand. I’m also a big animal lover and am very comfortable working with families who have pets. I’d be happy to help with basic pet care as part of the household routine as well! 🐾

“Nora is an amazing nanny. She has been taking care of our two-year-old son several times when he was sick, and she was absolutely wonderful. Nora is incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and treats our son like her own grandchild. We love that she is always fully present and never on her phone. Instead, she is constantly engaging with him—singing, playing, and making sure he gets to play outside, which he absolutely enjoys. We trust her completely and highly recommend her!”

I’m a caring and energetic nanny who loves spending time with little ones of all ages, from infants to busy toddlers and adventurous teens. I’m comfortable with multiples. I’m gentle and patient with feedings, naps, and routines, and I enjoy helping kids learn through play, creativity, sensory exploration, movement, repetition, story time, art, music, and outdoor fun. I love supporting families in more ways than one by helping keep the home clean, organized, and running smoothly whether that’s light housekeeping, child related laundry, meal prep, pick up/ drop off, grocery shopping or errands. My goal is to offer boots on the ground and be that extra set of hands while creating a safe, loving environment where your children continue to thrive.

"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)."
