Xochitl $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m a caring and experienced nanny with over 15 years of working with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, and I love creating a nurturing, engaging environment through reading, play, and outdoor activities. I’m patient, dependable, and truly enjoy supporting children’s growth and development in a safe and loving space. As a mom to a 6-month-old baby, I bring a fresh, attentive perspective to infant and child care. My baby may join me during care, which has been a wonderful way to encourage social interaction, empathy, and a family-like environment for little ones. I’m looking for a kind, flexible family who values a warm, home-style approach to childcare. I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit!

“Aleyda is our trustworthy, sweet, and proactive nanny. She is looking for a new family as our kids are starting preschool. We love her, she is like family to us. We cannot recommend her highly enough and want to help her land somewhere as wonderful as she is. Aleyda is incredibly reliable, responsible, and most importantly loving. She has the biggest heart and she will be very focused on your kids. She is never on her phone. She brings the kids outside for enriching experiences on a daily basis. Aleyda drives which is a real plus for taking the kids. She takes our kids out and about, to the park, Cal Academy, the zoo, music class, library story time, etc. She brings 10+ years of nanny experience, including several sets of twins, nanny share, and is a super caring person. She speaks Spanish and some English. We find it quite easy to communicate with her both in person and via text. Aleyda is truly a gem and I can’t recommend her enough.”

"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)."
