Seraphina $25 per hour for 1 child

hi! my name is Seraphina, I'm an artist and caregiver. I have a deep love for early childhood education, and learning each child's unique personality and forms of expression. My background started as a k-5 Arts Educator at several afterschool programs, which I've done for the past four years in San Francisco. Ive taught a range of mediums including sewing, fiber arts, painting, clay and ecological art. I've also taken these skills and lead enrichment programs for kindergarteners at Malcom X Acadamy. In the past 2 years Ive been working part time at a preschool called Ducks Nest in Oakland with children from the ages of 2-5. Nannying, babysitting, and teaching are all experiences I've integrated into my childcare work the past 5 years and beyond. It is an honor to contribute to the care and support of any child's life, and I'm excited to continue to do so in my career. I also have experience with children and adults with disabilities. Both of my parents have worked in these fields and are social workers. This has been a big part of my upbringing. Overall, Im a calm, patient and compassion person with abundant creative practices that I love to connect with children through. I have a lot of excitement for their processes and want to support their curiousities and play. I also want to lighten the load of any parents/families in need, and to be of service in the areas that are most valuable.

Rosmery $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a respectful and reliable worker able to give friendly assistance to parents with their children. I strongly dislike messes and am a very organized, neat person. I enjoy cleaning, cooking, folding clothing, and doing laundry. Anything that requires being organized, tidy, and neat is something I enjoy doing. In order to work in a clean kitchen when I'm cooking, I use any given opportunity to wash the dishes and wipe down the counters when there is something on the stove. In addition, I am quite crafty. I enjoy making things with my hands, whether it be with kids or adults-anyone of any age really. I enjoy having fun with children; reading, singing and dancing. I enjoy being silly and making kids laugh.  I love children, I'm very affectionate, and I'm dedicated to my work with them. I'm Salvadoran, and in my country, I used to babysit in schools, homes, and churches. I've been in the United States for two years, so I speak little English, but I'm studying to improve it. I love animals and I love caring for them so if you have any in your home I’d have no problem having them around. As I mentioned, Spanish is my native language, I speak it fluently. I know basic English enough to understand and participate in conversations as long as there are no big words used that I don't know. Working with children will help me practice, learn, and better my English.

Marleane $27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in San Leandro, CA

I have a strong background in childcare, with paid experience through Jovie, PJCC Treehouse, and College Nannies and Sitters. I’ve cared for children of different ages and supported families with daily routines such as meal preparation, playtime, homework help, and nap or bedtime schedules. I’m comfortable following family guidelines while being flexible and attentive to each child’s needs. I’m patient, dependable, and naturally nurturing, which helps me build trust with both children and parents. I take safety and communication seriously and stay calm and organized in busy situations. In addition to childcare, I can provide household support such as housesitting and running errands, and pet sitting when needed. My goal is to help families feel supported while creating a safe, engaging, and positive environment for children.

"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)."
