Me and my family love camping, traveling, going to the beach and just enjoying nature. I also have my own car with clean driving record and insurance, I would be willing to use for transportation of the children if needed.l am a nonsmoking . I have been taking care of children for over 8 years. My first professional babysit job was helping my brother took care of his daughter from 12 months to 4 years old, since my brother and his wife were working and going to college.

Hi, I'm Myarra and I've lived my whole life in San Diego! I’ve enjoyed every opportunity I’ve had to look after children and spend time with them! I’ve volunteered as a tutor for grades PreK-12 and took part in many community events like beach cleanups, marathons, etc., as well as worked as a lead counselor and supervisor for camps the past few summers. I worked at a local ice rink that is heavily involved with children and helped out with their figure skating academy lessons and hosted children's birthday parties! If you’re interested in my services, please feel free to reach out!

Reliable, on time! Responsive!

Hello parents and families! I am a graduate of Howard University and a Tech professional in the Chicago / Gold Coast area. I am interested in establishing relationships with families here looking for weekend/weeknight/ date night/ and occasional sitting jobs. I would be interested in both consistent work or one-time sitting jobs. I've been babysitting and nannying for over 20 years with children of all ages (starting as early as 2 months spanning up to 14 years) including special needs children, and volunteered at my community church in the pre-k/first grade department. I am the oldest of four children and I'm 9 years apart from the youngest, so I am very familiar with large family dynamics and busy households. I also grew up with two dogs so my house was always bustling with energy. I love children, and I'm open to assisting in family activities as well (errands, outings, etc.). I also have experience housesitting and pet-sitting for families on vacation. I'm willing to assist with any cooking, cleaning, and school-related tasks. I have a pretty open availability evening and weekends, and can be flexible if given enough notice. Feel free to ask me any questions regarding past/current experience and availability!

Booked by 14 families in Rancho Santa Fe, CA

Hi! My name is Bella, and I graduated from San Diego State University with a Bachelor’s degree in Education. I have always had a passion for caring for others and making a positive difference in people’s lives. As the oldest of seven siblings, caring for others has always been a natural part of who I am. Growing up, I helped care for my younger brothers and sisters, which taught me patience, responsibility, and compassion from a young age. I’m also a proud mom of two children. Motherhood has strengthened my patience, empathy, and ability to stay calm and attentive in all kinds of situations. Caring for my own children has deepened my understanding of the importance of creating a safe, loving, and supportive environment. I also had the privilege of caring for my grandmother, who lived with diabetes and dementia. That experience taught me the importance of providing not only physical assistance but also companionship, understanding, and dignity. I know how meaningful it is for families to have someone they can trust to care for their loved one with kindness and respect. Whether it’s helping with daily activities, preparing meals, light housekeeping, running errands, transportation to appointments, medication reminders, or simply being there to listen and provide companionship, I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and positive environment. I treat every person I care for as if they were a member of my own family. I would be honored to care for your loved one and provide the same compassion, patience, and respect that I would give to my own family. Thank you for considering me, and I look forward to the opportunity to support you and your loved one

She was beautiful and did a great job for my twins.

"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)."
