Tyriana $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m Tyriana, a mom with kids of my own and one dog. I know how much trust it takes to leave your kids, pets, or home with someone, and I take that seriously. I can babysit, house sit, care for pets, cook meals, clean, and even help with schoolwork. If you’re looking for someone dependable and caring, I’d love to help!

$27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Port Costa, CA

Hi! When I came to this country, I always dreamt of working with kids, but I found whatever job I could. I am now at a point where I can do what I love. I have three grandchildren (ages 11, 9 & 8) and I was their primary care taker since they were born, while working my other job. I can’t explain how much I’ve enjoyed it. I am not the best with technology & sometimes my English isn’t as quick (it’s at a 75%), but I use all my resources & can figure it all out. I take my job seriously and am very cautious & devoted to it. If given cthe opportunity, you won’t regret it. And I love pet too…I work with a family in the mornings (7:00-10:00)

Booked by 2 families in Port Costa, CA

Hi! My name is Sophia. I have over 4 years of experience working with families in both childcare and house manager roles. I’m CPR certified, dependable, organized, patient, and very hands-on. I love creating a safe and fun environment for kids while also helping parents keep the household running smoothly. My experience includes caring for children of different ages, school pickup and transportation, homework help, meal prep, bedtime routines, laundry, organizing, grocery shopping, household errands, light housekeeping, pet care, and helping manage day-to-day routines. I’m also very active and love getting kids outside for walks, parks, games, and other activities instead of always relying on screen time. I currently work part time at Trader Joe’s, which has made me even stronger with communication, multitasking, food knowledge, and working efficiently. I also have a strong eye for detail and naturally notice what needs to be done around a home without always needing to be asked. I have a clean driving record, reliable transportation, CPR certification, and I’m comfortable with pets. I’m looking for families who want someone trustworthy, warm, responsible, and genuinely invested in making their lives a little easier. I’m available for recurring childcare, occasional babysitting, and family assistant/house manager positions.

Susie $40 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Port Costa, CA

Hi, there! I am an authentically enthusiastic, welcoming, & dedicated experiential education professional, skilled in making joyful and meaningful connections with others, particularly children & youth. I have over 20 years experience working with children and youth in outdoor education, 3.5 years experience as a private nanny (ages 1-4), and 13 years experience as a mom (successfully raising 2 children since birth). :-) I have a B.A. and M.S. in Recreation (with a focus on youth programming), I have an active Wilderness First Responder certification (advanced medical training), and I drive groups of students regularly for outdoor excursions. I am equally passionate about outdoor education and early childhood development, so nature play/exploration is an integral part of my nanny care! Outdoor education focuses on learning through experience, saying “yes” to try, and being curious about the world around us. I am creative, dedicated, easy-going, and a self-starter yet love working as a team. In addition to outdoor exploration, I integrate songs, art, baking, and field trips (e.g., zoos) into my work with children, and I bring a global perspective of having visited 17 countries. I would love to explore this opportunity to work with you and your precious little one(s)!

Josefina 1 review
$35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Port Costa, CA

I am a loving, caring, and a responsible nanny. I can work with any age children, willing to travel and stay over when necessary. I’ve been nannying for 30years of experience. I am looking for Monday- Thursday.

Josefina was wonderful with our 8 month old baby; she's helped us here and there since he was 3-4 months and always has been an incredible help. She's experienced, attentive, warm and our son adored her. She helped with all the baby food, laundry and cleaning / organizing his room with much love.

"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)."
