With over a decade of dedicated experience in childcare, I bring warmth, reliability, and a deep understanding of children’s needs to each family I work with. I’ve provided one-on-one care as well as support for multiples, including serving as a full-time nanny for three siblings—a newborn, a 2.5-year-old, and a 5-year-old—in New York before returning to the Bay Area. My background also includes roles as an au pair, tutor, teacher, and camp counselor, giving me a well-rounded foundation for connecting with kids of all ages. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Anthropology from Occidental College, which enriches my understanding of developmental and cultural dynamics in childcare. Many families I’ve worked with through this site have left glowing reviews, a testament to my commitment to creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children. Please feel free to book any open time on my calendar, as I keep it updated regularly. For any questions, don’t hesitate to send me a message—I look forward to meeting you and your family! Booking Policies: --4-hour minimum booking --Not available for jobs that require driving kids --I’m not available for phone interviews but happy to schedule an in-person working interview if you want to meet before booking for a longer gig.

Hi, I’m Antonia. I have worked as a nanny for 17+ years and am a mother of three boys, ages 14, 5, and 10 months. I am currently looking for a new family to work with, ideally caring for a child between 0–3 years old alongside my youngest son. I truly enjoy working with children and becoming a supportive part of a family’s daily life. I am experienced in helping children through developmental and behavioral milestones, including sleep and nap routines, eating habits, sharing and taking turns, potty training, and preparing for preschool. I love spending time outdoors with kids and enjoy taking them to parks, playgrounds, and the library for play, learning, and socialization. I speak three languages: English, Spanish, and Mam (a Guatemalan language). Over the years, I have worked with more than 10 families, and I still stay in contact with nearly all of them. References are available upon request. I am also open to a nanny share and flexible on rates and hours, as long as the overall arrangement meets my family’s needs. In addition, I have participated in my own nanny shares with each of my three boys when they were infants, and I can provide references from the families I worked with during those arrangements. I am available to start anytime.

Antonia was incredible! She was quick to respond to my request for a last minute job and arrived promptly despite the early start time and roughly an hour of notice. She was warm and kind and had my stranger anxious baby smiling in no time! I am so happy to have found Antonia!

Hi! I’m Maddy — a professional nanny and experienced caregiver currently seeking full-time, part-time, and long-term nanny opportunities, as well as occasional/date night care. With over 14 years of experience working with children ranging from infants to teenagers, I bring a warm, engaging, and highly professional approach to childcare. My goal is always to create a safe, structured, and supportive environment where children feel comfortable, confident, and genuinely cared for. I have experience in nannying, tutoring, enrichment programs, daycare and preschool settings, summer camps, and youth recreation programs. I’ve worked extensively with children of varying personalities, learning styles, behavioral challenges, and special needs, and I’m known for being calm, patient, adaptable, and attentive. Qualifications: • TrustLine Certified (background checked) • CPR Certified • Clean driving record with reliable transportation • 63 five-star reviews on UrbanSitter with 48+ repeat families My background includes: • Tutoring students K–8 • Swim, music, and enrichment instruction • In-home daycare and preschool experience • 4 years at Livermore Valley Tennis Club working in the nursery, game room, and summer camp programs Education: • B.A. in Communication Studies • Multiple Associate Degrees in Communication Studies, Humanities, and Social & Behavioral Sciences • Currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Mass Communication My communications background has given me a strong understanding of emotional intelligence, behavioral communication, conflict resolution, and relationship-building. Every child communicates differently, and I pride myself on adapting my approach to each child’s personality and emotional needs while maintaining healthy structure and consistency. In addition to childcare, I bring a high level of professionalism, organization, and reliability from my leadership background in management and communications. Families appreciate that I’m dependable, proactive, and able to balance fun, structure, and genuine care. I’m also very comfortable in pet-friendly homes. I previously operated a dog daycare/cat hotel and worked as a veterinary technician, including caring for pets with medical and behavioral needs. I would love the opportunity to become a dependable support system for your family, and I look forward to connecting! Also, my rate is different depending on scope & location.

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
