Hello, my name is Arianna. I am 30 years old, and I am a registered nurse who graduated from the University of San Francisco. I have 6 years’ professional experience as an RN working in acute, ambulatory, and home care settings. I am interested in natural and integrative medicine, nutrition, and holistic health and wellness. In my free time, I enjoy reading, going for hikes and exploring new places, listening to music, and spending time with friends. I am the oldest of three girls, so I have experience babysitting my sisters when I was younger, as well as family friends. I am looking for part-time babysitting jobs.

Hi! I’m Odalis, a Nursing major at Santa Rosa Junior College with a genuine love for caring for kids. I enjoy singing, dancing, spending time with my dog, going to church, and being with the people I love. Babysitting is truly an art to me — one that takes patience, creativity, and heart. I’m known for being patient, reliable, and loving, and I always aim to bring comfort, joy, and calm to every child I care for. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to older kids, including multiple children at once. My experience includes school pick-ups and drop-offs, practices, games, homework help, meal prep, light cleaning, and full routines — from fun activities to bedtime. I’m also comfortable with infant care, including feedings, stroller walks, reading, naps, and soothing nighttime routines. I’m dog-friendly and happy working with both small and big dogs! I look forward to providing reliable, loving care and creating a joyful, safe, and nurturing environment for your little one(s).

Booked by 137 families in Santa Rosa, CA

Hello! I’m Nicole and I am a part-time student, trying to finish my undergraduate studies at SSU after a long sabbatical! I am also a first time mom to a wonderful 4 mo son ♥️ I enjoy exploring new places, trying out new restaurants and foods, walking with my dog outdoors, exercising, reading and attending concerts with friends. My experience working with children has taught me so much and transformed me into the person I am today. I became an alert listener, a wise decision maker, a patient advisor, a smarter supervisor, a fun-loving and creative adult, a generous and open-minded caregiver, and most importantly a loyal and loving friend to the kids I work with. This has been an invaluable experience and will surely help me in my endeavors for the future :) ***PLEASE READ BELOW*** On a side note: it is crucial for me to let parents and families know that my rates are subjective to distance as well as the major holidays. Any questions or concerns please privately message me. - Jobs within 20 minutes or less from my location will only be charged my minimum rate - I would also like to point out my minimum of 4 hr bookings. I may make exceptions, please message me. - My cancellation policy is notification up until 24 hours prior to booking; anything later, I request 50% of the expected rate agreed upon. Less than 12 hours, it would be 100% of the expected rate. Thank you so much for your understanding!

On time, professional, and communicated well. Our 10 month old was asleep already when she arrived but she had been more than willing to help out if needed!

"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)."
