Audrey $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello there, Audrey here! I’m a 25 year old student looking for a part time nanny position. I have been a long term nanny for 2 families, and a short term nanny for 2 families, as well as lots of experience in babysitting and overseas volunteering in orphanages, schools, and after school programs too. I’ve always loved babies and children, especially since I was 13 when my little brother was born. I was like a second mother too him and it is such an honor and privilege to this day to be his sister and have a close relationship with him. A little about me is I moved to Santa Rosa August of 2024 after living overseas for almost a year. I’m originally from Washington state. I moved here to be closer to the love of my life, and have settled in quite well. I recently resigned from my case manager job, and have decided to get back into the world of being a nanny—which is something that always brings me so much joy and fulfillment. I love being outside and am quite adventurous. I am easy going and adjust well to change but I understand the importance of boundaries as well. Some of my favorite things to do are journaling, scrapbooking, reading, going to farmers markets, playing tennis and watching movies. One thing I value about being a nanny is being able to help come along side parents to create a safe space to watch and help their little ones grow into the wonderful humans they already are. I have experience with most ages. And the families I have been a nanny for have had kids ranging from infants-11 year olds. I’m open for an interviews and also have good references if required and I am also CPR trained. Thank you for your consideration and I’m looking forward to talking further!

Sydnee $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, I’m Sydnee and for a little over 10 years I have had the privilege of babysitting and nannying some incredible kiddos! My goal is to create a fun and safe environment for the kids I watch to grow and flourish. I have an extensive educational background in child development and infant mental health. While most of my experience has been nannying in homes I’ve spent the last year as a substitute teacher for all grades.

I have been working as a caregiver in and around Petaluma for the past 10 years. I have cared for children from the ages of 4 months to 9 years, and have done many nanny shares. I've always felt that children must come first in a parent's life, and so I was a full time mother to my 2 sons, now aged 21 and 24. I am very conscientious and responsible, patient and understanding of the nature and needs of children. All the families that I have worked with have always been very happy to see the deep bonds that I have forged with their children. I enjoy being outside with children, taking them to the park and other outings, and I particularly like reading to them. I can of course provide excellent references.have been working as a caregiver in and around Petaluma for the past 10 years.

"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)."
