Hello, my name is Khoula but I go by La-La. I have an associates degree in dental assistant. I have been an RDA (registered dental assistant) for 11 years. While pursuing a dental assistant degree, I worked as a part time nanny. I have the experience and skill set you are looking for. I am nurturing, calm, and patient. I have been around children of all ages my entire life. I am one of nine children, and I am an aunt to 14 nieces and nephews. Combined with my childcare experience and household management skills, I enjoy children, their zest for life, and contributing to their growth and well-being. My job as a caregiver, is to create a warm and secure environment for the kids. It is important to feel comfortable with each other. I hope to hear back from you soon. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Thank you for your consideration.

āžŽāžŠšŸ„Œ- āžŒāž‘āžŽ- āžāžāžāž I'm a One-Time, Occasional, DateNight and OverNight Care Provider servicing families in The East Bay w/ a 4 + Hour Minimum Per Booking. Unsure about my availability? Send a message or a request a booking. If I’m hired for a set number of hours, those hours need to be compensated in full - even if things finish earlier than expected. This ensures that my time is respected and I’m fairly compensated for committing to that availability. From my early teens, I've been dedicated to caring for children, and I've developed a profound understanding of the responsibilities and rewards that come with it. My 15 years of hands-on experience have prepared me to inspire and uplift Raise and Support families. My name is Jessica Rivera, a 32 -year-old mother of 2. I was born in Queens, New York and raised in San Francisco. I enjoy various activities such as cleaning and organizing spaces, cooking, painting, and reading and being a MUM. I'm fully vaccinated and can provide documentation upon request. I have experience working and volunteering in Home Day Cares, Centers, Churches and Homes with newborns, toddlers, school aged children and twins and multiples and pre teens. I am bilingual, in English and Spanish which allows me to support families who value a multilingual environment for their little ones. I offer high-quality childcare services to families, focusing on and engaging in customized learning and developmental experiences, such as outdoor exploration, reading and creative activities like building puzzles, arts and crafts projects and singing and dancing or baking! Additionally, I prepare healthy meals and snacks, and manage children's laundry, ensuring their clothing is clean, folded and put away and maintaining a tidy environment by putting away children's toys and washing bottles /sippy cups. I'm always willing to lend a helping hand. My main priority is the safety of your child, to always provide a safe and engaging environment for us both. With my strong motivation, responsible nature, and trustworthy character, I am dedicated to serving as a positive influence and role model, inspiring children to reach their full potential and seeing their growth. I'm happy to accommodate any special requests or concerns you may have. Please contact me with any questions you may have. I am looking forward to the opportunity to communicate with you and making new little friends ! Best, Jess

"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."

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)."

Eric D., dad of two
