“We can’t recommend Fidelia highly enough. She joined our family recently and she’s very caring, trustworthy and dependable. With our little one she’s always attentive, loving and playful. We trust her completely. She recently brought with her a bubble wand that our daughter absolutely loves and watching the two of them play with it together was very heartwarming. Fidelia is incredibly reliable with the day-to-day essentials: cooking and feeding, keeping things tidy, and handling everything related to the baby’s bottles and cleaning. She has her own car and is consistently punctual, which gives us real peace of mind. Above all, she’s genuinely kind, and our family loves her dearly. She has our highest recommendation.”

Carmen $33 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Carmen and I've lived in San Francisco since 2007. I have also worked as a nanny in Texas. I am looking to take care of a child in the city. The most interesting experiences I've had in my career was being a live-in nanny for 3 years for a famous NFL family and another time I was a live-in nanny for a famous Latino singer for a year. All experiences were great and I enjoyed every moment of them.

“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.”

Alyssa 1 review
$33 per hour for 1 child

Nurturing a child's growth through is my greatest passion. My background in Early Childhood Education allows me to create a supportive environment where children thrive. I am patient, calm, and bring a creative spark every day, whether we are playing outdoors or engaging in educational games. I am an infant teacher at the Primrose Schools, I have 5+ years of nanny experience, professionally trained in childcare, infant specialist, & fully vaccinated with proper knowledge of personal hygiene around children! I hold CPR + and First Aid certifications to ensure your children's safety. I am happy to assist with meal prep, carpooling, and housework. I prioritize clear communication, following your preferred method to share updates about your child's day, & I am very comfortable enforcing your household rules consistently. I truly look forward to becoming a positive part of your children's lives! :))

“We absolutely loved having Alyssa care for our three kids (8 yo, 4yo twins)! All three of our kids adored her and always had so much fun when she was with them. She really took the time to get to know each of them individually and connected with them based on their own personalities and interests. Each of our kids felt seen and special when they were with her. She went above and beyond to make their time together fun, whether it was taking them to the movies or out for ice cream, or occasionally surprising them with little gifts. Beyond how wonderful she was with the kids, she was incredibly trustworthy, dependable, and reliable. I always felt completely comfortable leaving my kids in her care, knowing they were safe, happy, and having a great time. She also had the house so clean when we’d come home, which was a huge bonus. We would recommend her without hesitation!”

"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."

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)."
