Booked by 8 families in Pleasanton, CA

Hello! My name is Jenna, and I’m a student-athlete at Cal State East Bay, where I play softball and study Business. My home town is Elk Grove, in which I go back and forth frequently. I grew up in a large family, helping to look after my younger cousins, nieces, and nephews, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to keep kids engaged and happy. I love being active, and I’m more than willing to run around, play games, and explore creative activities with children of all ages. I have years of experience nannying including working with children with autism, providing patient, supportive care in both structured and play-based settings. I’m also comfortable around pets, so families with animals don’t have to worry. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and fun environment for the kids I care for, while giving parents peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Jenna was wonderful with our daughter for the few days we were in town! We very much appreciated her patience and flexibility, highly recommend!

I am so excited to be part of your family to share my experience as a caregiver. I am a fun and outgoing person who loves to do activities with kids, listen to them and have fun with them.I am also bilingual. I speak english and french.

Our daughter had so much fun playing with Fatou. It was raining so they couldn’t go to the park but still had so much fun playing. She was so great for us in a pinch!

Booked by 2 families in Pleasanton, CA

Hi! I’m Nelly — a 23-year-old CSU East Bay alum currently working toward getting into a Physical Therapy program. I’m super active and run both track and cross country, so I love bringing fun, positive energy into everything I do! Right now, I work at Chabot College as an Adaptive Physical Activity Instructor, where I support and work closely with individuals of all abilities. I also work in the nursery at my church caring for children ages 1–4, and I absolutely love working with babies and helping them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m really passionate about working with kids and hope to pursue a career in collegiate coaching someday. I already have 4+ years of experience coaching youth and enjoy creating a fun, supportive, and safe environment where kids can be active, build confidence, and just have a good time. Whether it’s playing outside, doing crafts, helping with routines, or keeping little ones entertained, I always try to make sure kids feel happy and cared for while parents feel at ease too!

Our kiddo is not used to new people. Nelly did an amazing job taking her time with him and letting him warm up to her. By the time we got home, he kept asking for her to come back and play. Will definitely be hiring her again. Regular communication helped us feel comfortable going out for a bit.

$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Tatiane, and I live in Star, Idaho. I have over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, including infants and toddlers. I’m a caring, patient, responsible, and dependable caregiver who truly enjoys creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment for kids. I love reading with children, singing songs, doing age-appropriate activities, and keeping them engaged while also following their routines and needs. I’m CPR certified, have a clean driving record, and hold an Associate Degree in Business Administration and Management. I’m happy to provide excellent references from families I’ve worked with and would love the opportunity to get to know your family!

Super nice girl. She’s watched our little one several times and she is just the best. Also super responsible and professional. She has no problem making dinner for the kids and always leaves the house looking clean and tidy. She’s also great with animals and can take good care of your furry children as well! I always feel good leaving such a kind and dependable girl like Tati in charge of things.

"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)."
