Talita 1 review
Santa Rosa
$28 per hour for 1 child

I have 5+ years babysitting kids of ages 1 through 13 and 3 years of experience working as a behavior therapist for kids diagnosed with ASD of all ages. Experienced pet sitter and house sitter as well :)

Talita has been regularly babysitting both my two year-old and five year-old over the last year. Talita is a wonderful caregiver to both kids. She is reliable, patient and always engages in fun activities with them, indoors and outdoors. With her background working with kids, she is also fantastic at managing any challenging behaviors. I highly recommend Talita as a caregiver!

Paloma Santa Rosa
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Paloma! I’m a warm, positive, and creative caregiver with experience in infant/toddler care and tutoring school-age kids in English, art, and music. I’m studying child psychology and I plan to become a therapist specializing in neurodivergent and special needs children, kids' mental health, different family structures, and multicultural families. I have a drivers license, a car, and a perfect driving record, plus CPR/First Aid training for adults, children, and infants. I believe in affirming kids' sense of self from a young age and building trust and confidence through open communication with the parents about boundaries, expectations, and each child's unique needs. I love using cooking, music, art, and play to help children learn to express themselves in a healthy way. I can also teach basic ASL to kids still developing verbal skills! I love pets and can help with homework too! Feel free to reach out if you think we would be a good fit or if you have any other questions for me!

Matel Santa Rosa
$23 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Matel. I’m currently a caregiver. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 16 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, and even dance lessons and songs. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. My only weakness is that I am allergic to pets.

Sydnee Santa Rosa
$35 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, I’m Sydnee and for a little over 10 years I have had the privilege of babysitting and nannying some incredible kiddos! My goal is to create a fun and safe environment for the kids I watch to grow and flourish. I have an extensive educational background in child development and infant mental health. While most of my experience has been nannying in homes I’ve spent the last year as a substitute teacher for all grades.

Audrey Santa Rosa
$18 per hour for 1 child

Hello there, Audrey here! I’m a 25 year old student looking for a part time nanny position. I have been a long term nanny for 2 families, and a short term nanny for 2 families, as well as lots of experience in babysitting and overseas volunteering in orphanages, schools, and after school programs too. I’ve always loved babies and children, especially since I was 13 when my little brother was born. I was like a second mother too him and it is such an honor and privilege to this day to be his sister and have a close relationship with him. A little about me is I moved to Santa Rosa August of 2024 after living overseas for almost a year. I’m originally from Washington state. I moved here to be closer to the love of my life, and have settled in quite well. I recently resigned from my case manager job, and have decided to get back into the world of being a nanny—which is something that always brings me so much joy and fulfillment. I love being outside and am quite adventurous. I am easy going and adjust well to change but I understand the importance of boundaries as well. Some of my favorite things to do are journaling, scrapbooking, reading, going to farmers markets, playing tennis and watching movies. One thing I value about being a nanny is being able to help come along side parents to create a safe space to watch and help their little ones grow into the wonderful humans they already are. I have experience with most ages. And the families I have been a nanny for have had kids ranging from infants-11 year olds. I’m open for an interviews and also have good references if required and I am also CPR trained. Thank you for your consideration and I’m looking forward to talking further!

"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)."
