Gabriela $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Gabriela! I have over 7 years of experience working as a nanny, and I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education. I’ve worked with children between the ages of 2 and 13, and I truly love what I do. I enjoy engaging kids in fun and educational activities such as painting, arts and crafts, dancing, and spending time outdoors at the playground. My goal is always to create a safe, joyful, and stimulating environment where children can learn and grow. I’m available during the week and on weekends. Feel free to contact me if you’re looking for someone caring, creative, and reliable to take care of your little ones!

Joanna $35 per hour for 1 child

I am a dedicated and compassionate individual with a strong background in healthcare and child development. I recently completed my nursing degree, where I gained extensive knowledge in patient care, safety, and clinical skills. My experience as a medical technician in a senior care facility allowed me to develop hands-on skills in assisting with daily living activities, monitoring health conditions, and providing empathetic support to elderly patients. Currently, I work as a behavioral therapist in a school setting, where I support children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), ADHD, and Down syndrome. In this role, I help implement individualized behavior plans, promote social and communication skills, and create a safe, structured, and encouraging environment for each child. I am known for being patient, attentive, and reliable, with a genuine passion for helping others. My diverse experience across both pediatric and geriatric care allows me to adapt easily and provide high-quality, compassionate support to individuals of all ages.

Hi families! I currently work for SFUSD and have several years of experience caring for children as a nanny/babysitter, Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), lifeguard, special education para educator, and recreational camp leader. I’m great with both special needs children and general babysitting. I bring a caring, gentle, and fun approach to every family I work with and have a true passion for working with kids. I hold a bachelor’s degree in psychology and soon a master’s in occupational therapy, with a strong focus on child development and education.

Booked by 1 family in Pacifica, CA

Hi there! I’m CPR certified and an LVN. I’ve cared for children ages 1-7 and am comfortable with diapers, toileting, and daily routines. I love helping families, keeping things organized, and creating a positive, caring environment. I drive my own car and am happy to help around the house with laundry (which I actually enjoy!), dishes, cleaning, and organizing. I’m also comfortable preparing simple breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and snacks. References are available!

Cindy has been working with us for several months. She is a great communicator, calm, and knowledgeable. Cindy has managed to win over our baby, who has serious separation anxiety. She is awesome with our very outgoing preschooler. She is great at taking initiative and helping around the house. We are so lucky to have had her in our lives and would recommend her without hesitation. If she wasn’t moving, we would have loved to have kept working with her. Thank you, Cindy!

Emsters $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m Emsters, I identify as non binary but I hope this doesn’t interfere on how you see me as a childcare provider. I’m 22 years old and have a strong passion for working with kids. I’m CPR and first aid certified along with other certifications. I have 8 years of experience, 4 of those years were nannying, along with daycare and preschool. I have experience working with children of all ages groups. I also have experience with children that have been diagnosed with autism, ADD, ADHD and behavioral problems. I’m very sweet and calm and have an unusual level of patience with children of all ages. I have been told that I am gifted at communicating with kids individually right where they are. I love playing, laughing, and learning as the children grow. I love to connect with the families and watch as the children grow up and seeing each individual child reach different milestones. My favorite part about being a nanny is to see the kids face light up with excitement when they discover something new and cool to them. I look forward to building relationships with the each child. As well as being an extra person to show them love. Most of my years of experience has been infant to 5 years old. I’ve none naps, feedings, bath, bed time, school pick up and drop off, overnights. I have certificates in these topics Helping Children Develop Empathy Shaken Baby Syndrome/Abusive Head Trauma ACEs and the Role of Life Experiences in Shaping Brain Development: Building Strong Brains - Tennessee ACEs Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and Safety Risks for Infants Before You Begin: New Educator Revised TN-ELDS for Toddlers: 13-24 Months Gold Sneaker Initiative Fine Motor Activities for Preschoolers Designing an Outdoor Classroom Essentials of Outdoor Safety Answering Children’s Questions Gross Motor Activities for Preschoolers

"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)."
