Booked by 1 family in Santa Clara, CA

Hello my name Mien, and i am a dedicated and compassionate pet care provider with a genuine love for animals of all kinds. With years of a lot of experience caring for dogs and cats, I pride myself on crating a safe, comfortable and joyful environment for every pet I look after. Animals aren't just pet for me, they are family. That's why I focus on building trust, offering patience and giving each animal the attention they deserve. Whether it's daily walks, feeding, playtime or special-care routines. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and comfortable handling pets with different personalities, from energetic pups to shy or senior companions. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry friends are in carrying and attentive hands. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets with the same love and respect as you do, I will be honored to help.

Nicolle Andrea $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Nicolle, and I’m originally from Colombia. I’m fluent in English, Spanish, and French, and I have many years of childcare experience, from newborns to teenagers. I have worked in a daycare and cared for twins, triplets, and families in Switzerland and throughout the Bay Area. My office recently closed, and I am now a full-time mom to my 3-month-old daughter. I’m currently looking for a nanny share-style arrangement or a family comfortable with me bringing my daughter along. I especially love working on early childhood stimulation and creating age-appropriate activities that support children’s development. I also enjoy exploring new places with little ones, including parks, libraries, museums, and story times. I love keeping our days active, engaging, and fun while respecting each child’s routine and needs. I’m caring, responsible, organized, and very comfortable with infants and young children. I’d love to find a family where our little ones can grow, learn, and explore together. Feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to answer any questions!

Hi! I'm Brianna, a responsible, caring, and organized nanny/babysitter with 5 years of experience caring for children from newborns to teens (15 years old). I'm currently studying Mechanical Engineering at SJSU and enjoy providing dependable, engaging, and nurturing care.

I am CPR and First Aid certified, have completed childcare and nanny courses through the American Red Cross, and have reliable transportation with a clean driving record. I'm comfortable helping with pets, light housekeeping, washing bottles and children's dishes, light meal prep for kids, errands, and basic homework help. I'd love to support a family looking for reliable and positive care!

Belinda $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello Santa Clara Families Caring for seniors isn't easy. Often, they are more fragile than they realize themselves. I worked as a Personal Care Assistant for eights years in assisted living and private homes. I do transfers, daily hygiene, housekeeping, and cooking. I'm not afraid of work and would rather get it done and then sit and chat. I'm a good listener. I'm sort of a fuddy-duddy home type and I like to make things look nice. I would like a situation where my caregiving means something good for someone. Please let me know how I may help.

Fernanda $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! 💛 My name is Maria Fernanda, but you can call me Mafe 😊 I am 20 years old and originally from Colombia. I speak Spanish and I am currently improving my English. I can understand and communicate basic needs, and I am always learning and improving every day. I am a caring, patient, and responsible person who truly enjoys helping others and creating a safe, positive, and respectful environment. I am currently offering services in childcare, pet care, senior care, and light household support, and I am always willing to adapt to each family’s unique needs and routines. While I am new to professional experience, I have developed strong caregiving skills through personal experience supporting family members and being around children. This helped me discover how much I genuinely enjoy caring for others, especially children, by creating a calm, loving, and safe space where they can feel comfortable, happy, and supported. I enjoy spending quality time with kids through activities such as playing, reading, drawing, and going on walks. I am attentive and focused on safety at all times. I am also comfortable caring for pets, including feeding, walking, and playing with them, making sure they feel loved and well cared for. In addition, I am open to supporting seniors with companionship and daily routines, offering non-medical assistance such as light cooking, organization, and small errands. I am happy to help with light household tasks like cleaning, organizing, laundry, and simple meal preparation. I am a non-smoker, pet-friendly, reliable, and always willing to learn and follow instructions carefully. I have flexible availability, including weekdays and weekends, and I am open to trial days to ensure a great fit for everyone. Thank you so much, and I hope to connect with your family soon!

"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)."
