Laura is great with our 13-month old, singing and reading to him. He eats well with Laura and she is very responsive over text during babysitting. I also appreciate that Laura is always on time and flexible to stay late if we ask!

Hey there! I am 28 years old and have years and years of experience with all ages. I currently live with my sister and her 13 year old son, so I am very involved with my family, and step in to help be a “bonus mom” when I can. I love being around little ones, and try and actively find new and fun ways to pass the time. I currently have my own vehicle, so I am comfortable scooping up your children for a fun adventures in the sun if you need a break or night out! I hope to hear from you, thank you for trusting me!

Hi, my name is Seda. I am originally from Turkey and speak both Turkish and English fluently. I currently live in Mission Terrace, San Francisco. I am a university graduate with nearly five years of professional childcare experience in the United States. I first came to the U.S. as an au pair, where I gained valuable hands-on experience in an American household setting. I have my own reliable vehicle, a valid driver's license, and a clean driving record. I am a non-smoker, CPR and First Aid certified, and I always prioritize children's safety and well-being. Throughout my experience, I have worked with children of all ages-from newborns to 15 years old-which has allowed me to adapt to different developmental stages and confidently support infants, toddlers, school-aged children, and teenagers. For the past two years, I have worked with a wonderful family caring for two children. I began caring for L. when she was just 3 months old (she is now 2 years old), and I also cared for A., who was 4 when I started and is now 6. With L., I focused on infant and toddler development, including play-based learning, arts and crafts, story time, outdoor activities, and supporting developmental milestones. With A., I supported his school routine, helped with homework, and planned engaging activities that encouraged independence and confidence. I regularly transported the children to school, activities, and playdates, always ensuring they were safe, happy, and well cared for. Being part of their daily lives and watching them grow has been incredibly meaningful to me. I am now looking for my next long-term position with a loving family where I can continue to provide nurturing, responsible, and dependable care. Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I would be happy to share references or provide any additional information. You can reach me at [[[[[[removed]](tel:7207033800)]

"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
