Sunitasayra $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Richmond, CA

Hi! My name is Sunita. I bring years of experience working with children in both school and home settings. I’ve worked as a care assistant at Bright Horizons and other early childhood centers, and I love helping children learn, grow, and have fun. I’m also a mother to an adult son and understand how important it is to have someone kind, responsible, and patient looking after your kids. I’ve lived in different countries and bring a warm, multicultural perspective to my care. In addition to childcare, I enjoy cooking — especially homemade Indian dishes like chicken curry, coconut curry, biryani, and a variety of vegetarian meals. With the school break coming up, I’d be happy to help take your kids on fun outings — whether it's to the park, the movies, or other local activities. I’m reliable, caring, and always ready to help where I’m needed. I look forward to meeting your family!

Aisha $45 per hour for 1 child

Hi families, I’m Aisha, a child therapist, expressive arts practitioner, and lifelong caregiver with decades of experience supporting children, teens, families, animals, plants, and community. My approach is caring, connective, attuned, expressive, and deeply imaginative. I specialize in helping children feel safe, engaged, emotionally supported, and genuinely seen. I love integrating art, nature, imagination, sensory play, emotional regulation tools, and gentle structure into time spent together.

"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)."
