Hi! My name is Kimberlin, and I am a caring, responsible, and dependable caregiver based in Foster City. I provide babysitting, pet care, and companion care for seniors. I truly enjoy helping others and creating a safe, positive, and comfortable environment for every family I work with. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and I love keeping children engaged through reading, arts and crafts, games, outdoor activities, and creative play. I am also happy to help with simple meal preparation, bedtime routines, and light household tasks related to childcare. In addition to childcare, I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I also have personal experience caring for elderly family members, which has taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of treating everyone with kindness and respect. I understand that trust is everything when inviting someone into your home, and I always strive to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care. I look forward to meeting your family!

Mariel $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello!! My name is Mariel and I am pursuing a degree in Marketing. I am offering my services as a nanny. I have been a nanny for over 8 years and it has taught me so much in so many aspects. I have taken care of kids between the ages of 8 months old to 11 years old. I really enjoy spending time outdoors and doing different activities with kids. My responsibilities have been different with different families, depending on the age of the child, but my basics have been doing the kids’ laundry, cleaning the kids’ dishes, and putting them in the dishwasher. I have driven/walked to kids’ activities, and so much more. Something that I have heard from the families is that they perceive me as a bubbly person. If you want to know more about my experience and me, don’t hesitate to reach out!! Hope to connect with you soon. Ps: I can give good references.

"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."

"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)."
