Seraphina $25 per hour for 1 child

hi! my name is Seraphina, I'm an artist and caregiver. I have a deep love for early childhood education, and learning each child's unique personality and forms of expression. My background started as a k-5 Arts Educator at several afterschool programs, which I've done for the past four years in San Francisco. Ive taught a range of mediums including sewing, fiber arts, painting, clay and ecological art. I've also taken these skills and lead enrichment programs for kindergarteners at Malcom X Acadamy. In the past 2 years Ive been working part time at a preschool called Ducks Nest in Oakland with children from the ages of 2-5. Nannying, babysitting, and teaching are all experiences I've integrated into my childcare work the past 5 years and beyond. It is an honor to contribute to the care and support of any child's life, and I'm excited to continue to do so in my career. I also have experience with children and adults with disabilities. Both of my parents have worked in these fields and are social workers. This has been a big part of my upbringing. Overall, Im a calm, patient and compassion person with abundant creative practices that I love to connect with children through. I have a lot of excitement for their processes and want to support their curiousities and play. I also want to lighten the load of any parents/families in need, and to be of service in the areas that are most valuable.

Eunice $36 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Eunice, and I’m a professional nanny and household manager with a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education and a minor in Special Education. I bring a thoughtful, developmentally informed approach to childcare, with experience caring for children from infancy through school age. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel supported, understood, and confident to grow. I believe every child is unique, and I take the time to observe their interests and needs in order to guide learning through play, routine, and consistency. I value structure while remaining flexible and responsive to each child’s individual temperament. In my experience, children thrive when they feel secure and respected. I focus on building strong connections, supporting emotional regulation, and encouraging independence in age-appropriate ways. Whether it’s planning enriching activities, facilitating social outings, or supporting daily routines, I approach each day with intention and care. Along with childcare, I am experienced in household support, including child-related laundry, meal prep, organizing, and maintaining a clean and calm environment. I work collaboratively with parents and value open, respectful communication, always aiming to support the overall well-being of the family. Families would describe me as calm, reliable, attentive, and proactive. I take pride in being someone you can trust to care for your children with both professionalism and genuine warmth. I am currently seeking a long-term position in the East Bay and would love the opportunity to support a family in a meaningful and lasting way

"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)."
