Ariam $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi parents! My name is Ariam, I’m a pre-med and a recent Marine Biology graduate from UC Santa Cruz, who loves spending time with kids. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for children with different personalities and needs. I’m also a certified medical assistant (CPR certified too), with a car and a valid driver's license. I love keeping kids engaged through reading, arts and crafts, games, outdoor activities, and learning. I’m also happy to help with homework, meals, bedtime routines, and light tidying related to the children or in the kitchen. My hobbies are running, reading, watching movies, and I love learning new things and would be happy to share that curiosity with the kids I care for. I’m punctual and respectful of family routines, and committed to creating a safe and fun environment where children feel comfortable. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and be someone you can rely on!

Kamerin $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Kam 😊 I’m a caring, dependable, and patient caregiver with 3–5 years of experience caring for children, seniors, and pets. I love being someone families can feel comfortable and confident leaving their loved ones with. I’m great with keeping kids engaged, happy, and entertained while also making sure their routines and needs are taken care of. I’m comfortable with meals, playtime, reading, creative activities, tidying up, bedtime routines, and helping keep things running smoothly. I’m also comfortable caring for pets and providing companionship and support to seniors. I’m naturally attentive, responsible, and easygoing, but I also understand the importance of structure, safety, and following each family’s specific routines and preferences. I’ll always communicate clearly and treat your home and loved ones with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and be someone you can count on! 💛

$26 per hour for 1 child

i was born in San francisco and have lived most of my life in the Bay Area. i have been a nanny for 16 years and can’t think of doing anything else. the first part of my nanny career was with specific families. although after covid i started working with Care.com as a temporary nanny. the ages range from 6 mos to teenage years. i love doing projects with my kids from puzzles to baking cookies. i’m easy going and kid’s generally gravitate towards me

“Margaret is absolutely amazing. We have welcomed Margaret over 15x into our home to watch our daughter. She did such a great job engaging with our toddler, often we’d come home to find them together reading on the floor together or playing with toys. Margaret is extremely professional and we never had any issues. It is great to have someone reliable that we trust in our home. Our daughter is always excited to see Margaret!”

"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)."
