Booked by 1 family in Saratoga, CA

I have been babysitting, nannying, and pet sitting since 2008. I have a Bachelor's in Sociology and have taken multiple first aid courses. Some of my experience: In college, I was a nanny for 3 kids under 5 for 3 years (I am still in touch with the family and enjoy seeing the kids growing up). I have also watched a total of 6 kids under 12 through high school as their regular babysitter. I grew up a competitive gymnast and played soccer through college(happy to coach in either sport). I enjoy cooking, taking walks/ hikes, playing games and helping the kiddos with their homework. On the animal caretaking side- I am regularly housesitting/pet sitting for multi-pet households. I am familiar with dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits and tortoises. Happy to learn the routine for other pets too!

“Michaela rocked it! She took care of our trio like a total pro while we enjoyed dinner. From cooking up a storm to playing games, she had them laughing and smiling all evening. Our kids are already asking when she can come over again! Michaela's laid-back vibe and easy flexibility made our night out a breeze. We're already planning our next adventure, knowing our little ones will be in the best hands. If you want a caregiver who's not just great with kids but also super cool, Michaela's your go-to! Highly recommend her for some stress-free parent time.”

Victoria $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Victoria. I am a retired and I have time to help busy families. I am offering child care, senior care and pet services. I have raised a daughter, whom is now an adult and on her own. I help babysit my grandbaby and I have three cats and two dogs of my own. I am able to help transport children to school or elderly to doctor's appointments. When my mother was living, I took care of her as she was disabled from a stroke. I took her to appointments as needed so I know how time consuming it can be. I am here 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!

"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)."
