Booked by 9 families in Saratoga, CA

Hello! My name is Mariah, I have over 17 years of experience working with children and families, including 12 wonderful years teaching kindergarten. My passion for early childhood education and helping children grow has been at the heart of everything I do. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with children of all ages,from infants to teenagers,which has given me a deep understanding of each stage of development and how to support children’s unique needs. In addition to my teaching experience, I’ve also been a nanny for several families, caring for children of various ages, including newborns and toddlers. I’ve cared for up to nine children at a time and pride myself on creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can thrive. I am CPR and First Aid certified, fingerprinted, and have a clear background check. I hold degrees in Social and Behavioral Science and Elementary Education, along with a Culinary Certificate, and I specialize in supporting children with behavioral and developmental needs. I would describe myself as honest, dependable, and dedicated,I truly love what I do and treat every child I care for as if they were my own. I’m looking forward to connecting with you and your family to see how my experience, energy, and love for children can best support your needs.

“Mariah was great with our three boys. She’s patient and kind. We even received periodic updates. ”

Booked by 2 families in Saratoga, CA

I’m a kind-hearted and easygoing childcare provider who truly enjoys spending time with kids. With 3–5 years of experience, I bring warmth, patience, and a positive attitude to every family I work with. I’m flexible and happy to help with anything — whether it’s playtime, meals, or just being a calm and loving presence. Your children will always be in good hands with me

“Hajar was wonderful! This was our second time working with her, and we were so impressed that she remembered all of our specific preferences from the first session. She is very gentle and friendly with our baby, and we love that she is proactive—she immediately looked for household chores to tackle while the baby was sleeping without being asked. She is also extremely punctual and always arrives a few minutes early. For fellow parents, it’s worth noting that Hajar is currently working on her English, but she can handle basic conversation without any problems. For more detailed instructions, we used Google Translate and everything worked out perfectly for us. Our family truly enjoys having her help. Highly recommended!”

"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)."
