Alyssa $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Alyssa, and I have over a year of paid nanny experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I genuinely love spending time with kids and strive to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they feel supported and cared for. I also have experience working with children who have special needs and understand the importance of patience, flexibility, and individualized care. I’m responsible, dependable, and have reliable transportation, so I’m happy to help with school drop-offs and pick-ups, activities, homework, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and bedtime routines. I enjoy being active with children, whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, reading books, or helping them learn and grow. Families describe me as kind, trustworthy, patient, and easy to communicate with. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your children, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is always to make life a little easier for parents while ensuring their children feel happy, safe, and loved. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming someone your children enjoy spending time with!

Xitllali $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Xitllali but you can call me Lali. I’m currently a student at De Anza College majoring in History. I am offering childcare services for children of all ages. I have experience babysitting a 1-year-old I cared for a few summers ago for a family friend, as well as regularly helping take care of my 2-year-old cousin, Enzo. My experience includes supervising toddlers, but I’m also comfortable with older children and different age ranges. My responsibilities have included playtime, meals, naps, and making sure kids are safe, engaged and cared for. I enjoy being a babysitter and spending time with children of all ages. I like being hands-on, whether that means playing, helping with routines, or just keeping things calm and fun. I’m patient, responsible, and easy to work with. I have a driver’s license with a clean driving record, which allows me to help with transportation if needed. I have basic knowledge of Spanish and can help with simple communication or homework 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)."
