Hi, my name is Maria i am a Reliable Childcare professional talented at creating safe, stimulating environment for young children. I have great child care experience from working at a daycare with up to eleven kids ages 1 through eleven. I have been babysitting kids since I was fourteen years old! Being the oldest of six siblings. I enjoy helping little ones through their early development stages. I make sure that each individual child feels loved and comfortable, and i hope to inspire them as much as they inspire me. I am eager to continue to contribute to these little human lives!

“Incredibly sweet and clearly very experienced. She managed to wrangle both clingy kids with great ease and our playroom was spotless when I came back!”

Hola I'm Nancy and I am looking for an extended family to work with. I have worked with various families over the past 20 years. I have been exposed to the Montessori style. I have lots of experience with new parents solo or in a nanny shared. I have care for newborn babies and their needs until school age. I myself have 3 children of my own, whom I raised with the great families I worked with in the past. I like taking walks on the beach, listening to Disney songs, and have walks on a rainy day. My kids are now 16, 18 and 24 yrs old. I'm very reliable, responsible, stern, caring, flexible and I also have great references from my current and previous families. I’m searching for a family whose looking for an extended family to rely on. Gracias, Nancy

“Nancy was a nanny for my son (now 2) and also helped with my five year old. She is capable, experienced, conscientious, trustworthy communicative and entirely focused on the well-being of the child. She always came up with thoughtful activities for our kids and was very caring with them. She can cook for them and also is a dependable driver. Feel free to have Nancy put you in touch with me personally if you would like to chat further about her!”

Hi! I’m a paraprofessional at Stonebrae elementary school and a nursing student with a strong passion for working with children. I support students with learning and behavior both in and out of the classroom, and I also have experience as an RBT providing in-home behavioral support. This has given me the skills to work with children of different needs, personalities, and routines. I’ve been caring for kids since I was 9 years old, starting with my niece and continuing with children in my family and neighborhood. I also have 5 years of paid experience as a nanny outside of this app, and I truly enjoy building meaningful, trusting relationships with the families I work with. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, patient, reliable, and comfortable in fast-paced environments. I love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing space where kids can learn, grow, and be themselves. Working with children is something that genuinely makes me happy, and I’d love the opportunity to support your family!

Hello- My name is Brithanie and I am a fourth-year college student and currently attending CSUEB’s Nursing Program! I am CPR & First Aid certified. I also speak Spanish! I enjoy babysitting :) I have had experience with babies and children ages 1-10! I worked with a senior my first semester of college, which I enjoyed so much and learned a lot from.

Patient, bilingual caregiver with 5+ years of childcare experience, including infants under 1, toddlers, and school-age children. I currently work full-time as a Family Ambassador for charter schools in SF and am seeking occasional or part-time babysitting in the evenings and on weekends. I’ve worked with SFUSD, after-school programs, and ABA services, and I’m CPR certified. Families describe me as caring, dependable, and creative. I especially love working with infants under 1, and I enjoy engaging kids through reading, play, and outdoor activities. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, tutoring (in any subject and in Spanish), and bedtime routines. Pet-friendly and reliable, I’d love the chance to support your family and provide safe, fun, and enriching care for your little ones.

“Marieolos was wonderful and spent all night with my friend's newborn so they could get some rest. She was amazing with the baby. We will definitely use her 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)."
