Dina $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a mother of two boys, a 15 and 13 year old. My wonderful loving 15 year old has Autism. Having a child on the spectrum has taught me a lot of patience, the importance of consistency and the value of attention to details. I am also currently a substitute aide at OUSD.

Rory $25 per hour for 1 child

I bring over 20 years of experience supporting seniors, and it remains one of the most meaningful parts of my life. I’ve cared for adults ages 65 to 95, including those managing chronic conditions and individuals with MS during flare periods. My support has included meal preparation, companionship, organizing the home, medication reminders, maintaining schedules, transportation, and doctor visits. I’m also experienced in coordinating outside care when a family needs additional support. I’ve provided occasional overnights as well. Families describe me as calm, reliable, and someone who brings dignity and steadiness to the home. In addition to senior care, I have two decades of experience supporting adults with disabilities. My approach is patient, respectful, and focused on helping people stay as independent as possible while providing safety, structure, and encouragement. I also care for pets. I’ve supported dog and cat owners when they are out of town or unavailable for a full day—sometimes for up to three days. This includes feeding, walks, litter care, and companionship. I also have long-term experience caring for children. My earliest childcare was with infants in the late ’90s, followed by four years volunteering with toddlers in Sunday school and three and a half years of every-other-weekend care for young children. I have additional experience with kids ages 9–12, helping with routines, homework, and creative activities. Families appreciate that I am warm, organized, easy to work with, and a grounding presence across all ages and needs.

I’ve always wanted to be in the medical field. specifically for a neonatologist or pediatrician. My youngest sister has autism and I’ve taken classes with my mother to find out different ways to help and benefit her in anyway possible. I can say I have experience with autism children as well.

Shayna $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am an experienced nanny with an associate's degree in Early Childhood Education. I am currently pursuing my bachelor's degree at San Francisco State University, where I am studying Child and Adolescent Development with a concentration in Community, Health and Social Services. I spent my freshman year of college working at a Child Study Center, where I was trained by teachers with decades of experience. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers in both professional and home settings. I also have experience working with elementary and middle school aged children as a nanny. During Covid, I worked as a live-in nanny for an infant/toddler in Austin, TX. After returning to the East Bay, I continued caring for children from infancy through middle school. I am trained in anti-bias education, age appropriate curriculum planning, and supporting children's social emotional development. I am looking for a nannying job while I am pursuing my bachelors degree.

"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)."
