Alexa $32 per hour for 1 child

I’m a caring, dependable mom who understands how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your children. I treat every child in my care with the same patience, attention, and kindness I would want for my own. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish and love creating fun, age-appropriate experiences for kids. Whether it’s an active day at a local park, playing outside, getting creative with crafts and watercolor painting, reading, or enjoying a quiet activity, I’m happy to meet each child where they are. I can also prepare basic meals, help tidy up, and I’m a big animal lover, so pets are no problem! Most importantly, I want parents to have peace of mind knowing their children are safe, happy, cared for, and having a genuinely good time while they’re away.

Booked by 1 family in San Leandro, CA

Hi everyone! I’m Daniela :) I’m currently a student at San Jose State University. I am offering child care and tutoring services, running errands, anything you might need help with! Communication is important! I love working with kids and have been babysitting since I was fifteen years old. I currently work at a family home daycare as a teacher assistant where I care for children from infants to four years old. I help kids learn shapes, colors, and other basics, and I also offer tutoring for older kids. Families can count on me to be patient, attentive, and trustworthy with their little ones!

“Daniela arrived a few minutes early for our scheduled booking, was very sweet, and immediately engaged with both of our kids. She followed all instructions, kept the kids happy and entertained, and they both really liked her. We had a great experience and would happily book her again.”

“Marcia took care of our little girl from 6 months old until 2 years old. She's a very warm nanny with 20 years of experience, and it truly shows! She is extremely reliable and always arrives on time, which gave us great peace of mind. Our little one loved spending time with her and playing games. As she grew, Marcia introduced new activities to keep her engaged, like painting, drawing, play-doh, singing, and even helping her cook cakes and cookies. Marcia also gave us the option to speak English, Spanish, or Portuguese to our baby, which was a big plus. She also prepared most of our little one’s meals which was incredibly helpful. I very much recommend Marcia as a nanny. You’d be lucky to have her!”

Mele $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mele, and I'm a 19-year-old college student. I worked as a teacher's assistant at Step Ahead Learning Center in Walnut Creek for 2 years, and I've also been nannying for the past 3 years. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from 6 months to 10 years old. I truly enjoy nannying and tutoring—not only because it helps me pay for college, but also because I love working with kids. Tutoring has been especially rewarding because teaching concepts I'm learning in school helps reinforce my own understanding while supporting a child's learning and confidence. I come from a big family and have always loved spending time with my nieces and nephews, whether we're playing outside, doing crafts, reading, or going on fun outings. I strive to create a safe, caring, and engaging environment where children can learn, have fun, and feel supported. For references, please feel free to contact Lota Veimau, whom I worked with at Step Ahead Learning Center, at [removed] or [removed]. Thank you for your consideration! If you have any questions or would like to get in touch, you can reach me at (510) 571-0511 or [email protected].

Carly $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Carly and I'm 29 years old. I have watched many kids over the years since I was around 14, as I used to babysit - and still babysit - my 2nd baby cousins and I have also babysat professionally through the Trusted app from August 2017-December 2017 and had to briefly take a break since I went to study abroad the following semester. I’ve babysat kids from months old up until about 7 years old throughout the years, though. I am back and ready to spend time with these sweet, imaginative kids! I love spending time with babies or kids because they have such amazing, intelligent minds and I love to watch them grow whether it is by height or through improvements in their education or just through their personality. I am really into arts and crafts and love to be active, so keeping up is really no problem for me. I can speak a bit of Spanish if you’d like me to speak with your child in conversational Spanish :)

"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)."
