Theresa $32 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m Theresa. I am 34 years old. I am a nanny, sitter, and mother’s helper. I have over 15 years of experience in newborn care all the way up to teenagers. I am a mother to four wonderful daughters so I have personal experience due to raising my own children. I have always enjoyed caring for children. It truly brings me so much joy. I handle all aspects of care such as bathing, potty training, meal prep, driving to and from activities. I am kind, gentle, warm, and engaging. I stick to routines and stay consistent with the schedule. I consider myself long term as I have worked for families that have lasted over 5 years. My typical schedule can be anywhere from 8:30/9:00am to 5/5:30pm daily. I can do school pickup and drop off in needed. I also provide date night and overnight care and can occasionally provide care during the weekends. Some things I enjoy doing with children under my care are picnics at the park, play dates, reading, playgrounds, library, games, and art with the children. I truly have so much to offer. References available upon request. Thank you.

Arianna $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Arianna Rucker, and I’m a caring, responsible, and energetic childcare provider with over 12 years of experience working with children of all ages from infants to pre-teens. This is my first time on UrbanSitter, but caregiving has been a major part of my life long before joining this platform. Growing up as an aunt, older sister, and cousin, nurturing kids came naturally to me. I started babysitting at 12 and continued building experience through family care, daycare support, and working as an after-school teacher for grades K–3. I truly love being part of children’s growth, curiosity, and everyday milestones. Safety & Reliability • CPR certified • TB tested • COVID-free • Clean background I’m always open to renewing and updating certifications as needed to meet family requirements. My Care Style I create a safe, fun, and structured environment filled with: • Outdoor activities & park days • Arts & crafts and creative projects • Reading and homework support • Educational play and positive routines I enjoy keeping kids active, engaged, and encouraged — whether that means helping with bedtime routines, preparing simple meals, or planning thoughtful activities. Expect creativity, communication, and lots of handmade art treasures! A Little About Me Outside of childcare, I enjoy hiking, gym days, exploring new food spots around the Bay, and painting at scenic views. I’m dependable, flexible, and always willing to adjust to each family’s needs to make routines smooth and stress-free. Thank you for taking the time to learn about me. I’m excited to connect with families here and build trust through my work. Feel free to message me with any questions about availability or rates. I look forward to supporting your family and providing a warm, reliable, and fun experience for your little ones 🤍

"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

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)."
