Zarely $35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Redwood City, CA

From a young age, I discovered my passion for childcare through positive babysitting, my work at a daycare and with my own experiences as a mother. I've enjoyed working with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I'm friendly and approachable, and I always follow the parent’s preferred method of communication regarding their child's day. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules, and I am happy to engage children with outdoor sports and physical games. I have First Aid Training and CPR Training. I am comfortable caring for two child at a time and willing to help with carpooling and light housekeeping. I speak English and Spanish. I am comfortable with pets. I find joy in watching children learn and grow, and I would love to bring my enthusiasm and experience to your family. I’m new to UrbanSitter, but I have experience, and also have a profile on Care.com, where I have received many positive reviews from families I’ve worked with. You’re welcome to check out my Care.com profile (Zarely B) to read my reviews and learn more about my experience. I look forward to meeting your family and helping care for your little ones! 😊

Booked by 1 family in Redwood City, CA

Hello! My name is Brisa. I’m a caring, patient, and dependable childcare provider with years of hands-on experience working with children of different ages. I specialize in working with children with special needs, particularly children with autism. I have experience supporting children ages 3 to 5, helping them develop communication, social, and daily living skills while using positive behavior strategies. I also have personal experience caring for my younger brother, which sparked my passion for working with children. I’ve been babysitting since I was 12 years old, caring for my brother and other children over the years. In addition, I’ll soon be starting a part-time position as an afterschool teacher, where I’ll continue creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children to learn and grow. I enjoy keeping children engaged through arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, educational activities, games, and creative learning experiences.

"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."

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)."
