Subhadra San Francisco
$26 per hour for 1 child

I’m a patient, dependable, and caring person with experience working with children through music, education, and summer camps. I volunteer teaching elementary students, helping kids learn instruments while building confidence, creativity, and patience. I also have experience with music camp counseling and summer camp counseling, supporting children in activities, encouraging teamwork, and creating a safe, positive environment. Growing up in a multigenerational family taught me compassion, responsibility, and respect for both younger children and older family members. I’m organized, attentive, and happy to help with household tasks while making sure others feel supported, safe, and comfortable.

Chloe San Francisco
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Chloe, I’m a 20-year-old Filipina with a big heart for kids and a passion for spending time with them. Growing up with two younger sisters, I naturally stepped into the role of a caretaker, making sure they were happy, safe, and engaged. I also babysat my nephew when he was little, and I’ve looked after my younger cousin who has special needs—experiences that taught me patience, responsibility, and how every child is unique. I genuinely love playing, laughing, and learning alongside children. Whether it’s helping with homework, inventing fun games, or just being someone they can feel comfortable with, I enjoy creating a positive and caring environment. I’d love the opportunity to bring that same energy and warmth to your family!

Xochitl San Francisco
$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!

Booked by 5 families in San Francisco, CA

Hello families my name is Eva! I’m a warm, reliable, and experienced bilingual nanny (English & Spanish) with 4 years of childcare experience, including the last two years with my current family. I’m now looking to care for a newborn starting in September, as I love building a deep bond right from the beginning. About Me: Experienced with infants and early childhood development Clean driving record – your child’s safety is my priority Fluent in English and Spanish CPR and First Aid certified I respect and follow parents’ preferences and routines I enjoy planning fun, developmentally supportive activities like:   • Trips to the zoo   • Visits to the Academy of Sciences   • Library story times   • Daily outdoor play and sensory activities Excellent references available upon request Serving families in San Francisco, Richmond and Sunset districts. If you’re seeking a kind, attentive, and proactive nanny to join your family, I’d love to connect! Available to start: March 2026 Contact Eva: [removed] Looking forward to becoming a trusted part of your child’s journey.

Eva worked with our family for two wonderful years and has become such an important part of our lives. We truly can’t recommend her highly enough! She is warm, attentive, and incredibly engaged. She has built a beautiful bond with our daughter and played a huge role in her development, teaching her Spanish (she is bilingual in Spanish and English), numbers, letters, and so much more through thoughtful, play-based learning. She fills each day with enriching adventures: outings to the zoo, Academy of Sciences, Discovery Museum, Peekaboo Factory, library storytime, gymnastics, music class, and more. She has her own car and is a safe, responsible driver. We always looked forward to her daily photo and video updates that gave us a window into our daughter’s joyful days. She’s also made a lovely network of other nannies and children, so our daughter has had consistent social time with the same group of peers, which we really appreciated. Beyond the fun, she is incredibly organized, proactive, and helpful around the house. She’s the kind of person who thinks ahead, plans creative activities, and genuinely cares. On weekends, our daughter asks when she gets to see her nanny again!

"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
