Hi, my name is Daniela, but you can call me Abby! ☺️ I’m a student at San Francisco State, holding an Associate's Degree in psychology, and I am currently pursuing my Bachelor's. I am fluent in Spanish and English, and I am a beginner in Portuguese and ASL. I am also CPR Certified! My passion has always been working with children. Which is why my major is Psychology, and I am looking forward to achieving my goal of becoming a speech pathologist. As the oldest daughter among my three younger siblings, I began caring for them from the time they were newborns until they reached toddler age. I worked as an after-school lead teacher for Transitional Kindergarten through 3rd grade for two years, which provided me with experience working with children aged 4-12 years old. I’ve gained knowledge in tutoring, crafting, and taking care of their emotional needs, as well as managing a daily schedule with 20+ kids at the same time. I currently have 9 ECE (Childcare) Credits for the following classes: - Child Development. - Children With Special Needs. - Strategies for Special Needs. Now I’m working as a Special Education Teacher Assistant with children of various ages, from preschool to Middle School, while also doing babysitting on the side. Thank you for allowing me to show love through my work! ☺️

Daniela did a great and thorough job cleaning the apartment!

Booked by 169 families in San Lorenzo, CA

Experienced with infants, toddlers, elementary and middle. I’ve been on Urban since April 2015 so please feel free to browse my many 5 star reviews. Background: -While an undergraduate at Simmons College, I studied early childhood education and worked in an urban preschool for two years with Jumpstart, an AmeriCorps project. -CPR/ AED trained and certified by the Red Cross -Oakland CORE certified (Earthquake & Disaster Preparation) -My reviews are nearly all 5 stars. -I live in Cupertino (formerly from Boston) and am obsessed with hot yoga and once upon a time Sailor Moon. I’d be happy to be a healthy influence on your family and assist with household coordination. MY STYLE - Waldorf/ Montessori influences - I encourage creative & imaginative play along with self organizing and cooperation for older children. - For the pre-school and under crowd, I participate in parallel play and getting on the child’s level. - I love taking children outside to play or for a stroller walk. We will read books together (maybe even make one together) and on the whole I’ll be that new age sitter who isn’t too fond of screen time and would rather we go to the playground or explore fractal patterns in pinecones. 😋🌲 Thank you! -Jane

Hi families! My name is Lais, and I am a dedicated professional nanny with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I have extensive experience caring for children from newborns all the way to teenagers, and I am comfortable and confident with kids of all ages. I also have specialized experience supporting neurodivergent children, and I adapt my care to a variety of approaches—whether that’s gentle parenting, Montessori, RIE, or other philosophies. Despite earning my degree, I decided to continue my career as a nanny because I am deeply passionate about building strong, trusting relationships with families. I plan to grow in this field as a lifelong professional and bring my psychology background into my work every day. I am happy to provide references and my resume upon request, and I’m always available to respond to any texts from families who want to know more about my experience. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. I look forward to connecting and learning about your family’s unique needs! I look forward to connecting and learning about your family’s unique needs!

Lais is an experienced caregiver who had many strategies to handle our rambunctious 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."

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
