Booked by 1 family in Sausalito, CA

Hi! I’m Sofía, an experienced and caring nanny with over 5 years of childcare experience. I’ve worked with babies, toddlers, and young kids, helping with daily routines, school drop-offs, activities, homework, meals, and bedtime. I’m patient, loving, energetic, and very responsible. I enjoy creating fun and educational activities like arts & crafts, outdoor play, reading, and creative games. I’m also bilingual (Spanish/English) and happy to teach Spanish naturally through play if families are interested. I’m CPR & First Aid certified, a strong swimmer, have a driver’s license, and I’m comfortable with light housekeeping and pets. I’m very organized, punctual, and always prioritize safety and kindness. Looking forward to supporting your family!

Prompt, caring and got along well with my 5 year old. Would love to work with again.

Hi, I’m Vanessa. I’m 26 years old, and I’m from Brazil. I’ll tell you a little bit about my experience. I started working at a mall, selling children’s clothes and helping parents try outfits on their kids. At that moment, I realized how much I love children, so I knew I needed to do something related to that. I started volunteering at a preschool, where I spent time with the kids. They had cooking classes and played games, and it was an amazing experience. However, I left to work for a family with a 3-year-old boy. I used to take care of him—playing, feeding him, giving him baths, and sometimes putting him to bed so his parents could have a date night. I also helped them with potty training. I stayed with this family for a year and a half, and we still keep in touch. Later, I worked for another family with two children—a girl (11) and a boy (8). We used to play, watch movies, give them fruit or dinner, and help them get ready for bed. I am someone who enjoys reading books with children, playing outdoors, exploring, and discovering new things. I am also very patient and respectful with kids. For pet parents, I am an animal lover! I grew up with dogs, so they are a big part of my life. I personally have five dogs in my home country. I also take care of a family’s pet, visiting their house to play with the animal, take it for walks, give it treats, water, and food, and spend quality time with it before leaving.

Vanessa was great with our 2.5yo daughter. Would love to hire her again!

Hi everyone! I’m a warm and reliable nanny with 3 years of experience and genuine love caring for babies and small children. I’m patient, calm, and very attentive. I keep your baby safe, by being nurturing, and creating an engaging environment. I’m comfortable with feedings, sleep routines, and play that supports their development. I like going on walks as it is a great way to change up the vibe or setting. I also love to stay active and babies tend to sleep in their stroller. Additionally, I’m also good at household related tasks like meal prepping, tidying or preparing lunch boxes. (For those just looking for an hour or 2 of help around the house.) I value communication and follow your style and preferences. I aim my best to provide updates so you feel connected while you’re away. I’m so excited to connect with you and learn more about your family/home— please feel free to message me and I will answer as soon as my schedule allows me to! Thank you!

She was so professional, helpful and warm. She did the morning routine and drove the kids to school. We can’t wait to have her back.

Kaitlin 2 reviews
$35 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m Ms. Kaitlin, a Master’s-level Special Education teacher with over 10 years of experience working with children. I currently lead my own classroom and have extensive experience supporting children with a wide range of abilities, learning styles, and developmental needs. I’m known for being calm, patient, and nurturing while also providing structure and clear expectations. Whether supporting homework, routines, play, or emotional regulation, I aim to create a safe, positive environment where children feel supported and understood.

Kaitlin is, by far, the best babysitter we have ever had. We hired her during the summer of Covid and she worked with our family the entire next school year. She is smart, thoughtful, helped our kids with their schoolwork, hiked and played sports with them and was FUN. Our dog. Our kids. Me. We all love her and consider her family. She is easygoing but thoughtfully strict when needed. She is probably the most creative person I’ve ever met. She is the absolute best. Can’t recommend her enough!

"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)."
