I’ve worked as a Mother's Helper, Nanny, Caretaker, Tutor, Life Coach, Teacher and Family Social Worker. I am a New-Born Christian. I follow the Biblical principles: love one another and be a Peacemaker. I believe your family is happier and easier if you have Jesus Christ in your life. Life is a journey and we are travelers in this world. Enjoy life, eat out more often with your family. Be grateful for what you have and be thankful for your family. I completed SF Kaiser Hospital for Newborn / infant care training for 6 weeks when my children were born. I earned 15 Early Childhood Education units from City College of SF. My A.S. degree is in culinary. I love cooking soul food / soup. My B.A. degree is in Social Work. My Master degree is in Family Welfare. I’ve coached and trained many people to renew a heathier and happier life. I practice what I preach. I used the What Would Jesus Do model to love like Jesus Christ. I practice the Ten Commandments to live my life to honor God. (The Bible says: Fathers & mothers, do not do things that make your children angry. Instead, teach them carefully as they grow up. Help them to understand the message of the Lord, and help them to obey it. Ephesians 6:4 ) I enjoy life and appreciate people around me. I encourage people to seek outside solutions. I love seeing children grow productively. I always bring joy, love, peace and hope to people around me. I am a very humorous Provider. I provide care to newborn, infants, children, youth, parents, seniors and people with disabilities or / and health issues. I create light and happiness for people who need support.

I am open and I am willing to learn. I am able to read, speak and write English and Chinese. I’ve helped many families raising their children to live a happier and positive life. I am available in the afternoon, evening, weekend and as needed travel. I believe I will be a great asset to support your family. Life is short, before you know it, your child(ren) will be in college soon : ). May God give you wisdom to train your children to be independent. It takes a village to raise a child.

“Ellen has been such a gift to our family and to our son, Mason. She is reliable, communicative, and flexible with scheduling when given notice, and is consistently on time. She has many families that she helps with and is in high demand! She brings a confident and has vast experience caring for kids. She has a warm, faith-centered personality, is funny and down to earth, and takes a true mom helper approach—helping around the house, keeping things tidy, and noticing details like when Mason’s skin need. Her caregiving style is attentive and she teaches children life skills. I really like that she does things for the babies brain development. She offers thoughtful advice from her own experience, and is also open and respectful of our parenting style. We highly recommend Ellen to any family looking for a dependable, loving, and proactive caregiver who will treat their child as her own!”

Hi, I'm Jennifer and I'm 43years old. I live in San Francisco, Ca. I have been taking care of children, with and without special needs, for over ten years now. I have over 32 units completed in child development, and work as a head teacher for Tinycare at Mission Bay Infants. I have extensive special needs experience! I have current Covid and boosters, CPR, First Aid, TB, DPT and Flu vaccine. I am experienced in food allergies and organic diets. I also know basic sign language, and have worked with families who use the sleep training method. I pride myself in providing engaging and stimulating activities instead of having children sit in front of a tv all day. I have worked as a live-in, live-out and on-call nanny. Some of my favorite activities to do with young children are singing, fingerplays, lots of reading (I love to read!), going on outings to parks, musuems, etc. For older children I love to incorporate activities that have an educational value too, like learning about history, science, etc in a fun and exciting way. I also do lots of art projects and music. I have quite a collection now, both from working in a school, different families and materials I have purchased. Children who I meet are always super excited to go through my "nanny bag" which I prepare for each family depending on the age of the children. Some of my interests are reading, writing, swimming, bike riding, going for walks and spending time with family and friends. I have excellent references and a resume available.

“Anna has been an incredible caregiver for our family and I recommend her highly. She cares for our two boys, ages 9 and 10, and is warm, dependable, responsible, and genuinely invested in them. I trust her completely driving them to school, sports, activities, and appointments in her own car, and she is excellent at keeping track of busy schedules and making sure everyone gets where they need to be. What I especially appreciate about Anna is that she takes initiative. She helps with meals and snacks, keeps things organized, and notices what needs to be done without needing constant direction. She is also patient and caring with the boys while still being able to manage the energy and independence of school-age kids. Anna has made our family’s day-to-day life significantly easier, and my boys have developed a wonderful relationship with her. She is someone I feel completely comfortable entrusting my children to, and I would absolutely recommend her to another family.”

"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

"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)."
