Iryna 1 review
Sonoma
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Iryna and I am a former preschool teacher. I worked at the nature school in Texas that focused on outside classroom environment and regio inspired education. I loved working with children in the environment where they can climb trees, go on daily hikes, and interact with the nature as an educational tool. I received a degree in education specializing in special education from University of Houston. Additionally, I worked as a nanny, caregiver to seniors as well as household assistant. I can cook, clean, and run errands. I recently moved to Sonoma CA and really enjoy the area. In my free time I enjoy hiking and spending time with my friends and family. I am a big animal lover, I am a mom to two fur babies Danny and Jazz.

Iryna is like having a private Montessori teacher in your home, giving your child thoughtful, one-on-one care. She has been wonderful with our active toddler. She is incredibly calm, patient, and knowledgeable about child development, and you can immediately tell how much experience she has caring for young children. She uses gentle discipline to teach and guide rather than simply correct, and her genuine joy in working with children is palpable. Iryna is sweet, professional, reliable, and always on time. She finds creative, engaging ways to play with our son and is always looking for ways to be helpful. She also loves animals, and even our chihuahua warmed up to her almost immediately, which is very rare! What stands out most is the way she interacts with our son. The moment she gets down on his level and speaks with him, her experience and natural ability with children are obvious. She brings such a calm, nurturing presence into our home, and is a wonderful communicator. Anyone would be lucky to have Iryna care for their child. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her.

Bibiana Sonoma
$27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Sonoma, CA

Hello! My name is Bibiana which means “lively” which perfectly reflects who I am as a person. I am an energetic, curious and people-loving person. I enjoy connecting with others and creating positive environments. I am the oldest of three and Spanish is my first language. Last year I completed my first half marathon and I am currently training for another one. I have experience with all ages from 3 months to building a friendship with them once they are off to their teenage years. One of my favorite parts of being a child care provider is watching the children reach big milestones. It is incredibly rewarding to support their growth and be part of their development. Working with children reminds me every day that learning is a two way street. They teach me just as much as I teach them and being part of that journey is truly a gift. I can provide my resume and my letters of references upon request. Can’t wait to meet you! Thank you!

Hi, my name is Vasty (She/Her/Ella). I am currently a fourth-year majoring in Biochemistry, with a minor in Early Childhood Studies — hoping to pursue pediatric ophthalmology or anesthesiology! Personal hobbies of mine include band, lacrosse, and painting. I’ve been working with children for ~6 years, and have been watching newborns, toddlers, or kids since I was 14.

As a full time student, I tend to help out more with occasional/ date night bookings during the school year but am always more available in the summer time. I enjoy crafting, going to the park, and cooking/baking. My responsibilities have included tutoring, crafts, dance lessons, and several more. 🌟I am bilingual (English and Spanish) 🌟CPR certified for infants and adults. 🌟Can provide references 🌟TB, Tdap, MMS, COVID-19 Vaccinated 🌟CNA, HHA Certified (CA only) I do not have any allergies to any pets. I have a cat so if there are any allergies, please let me know so I can assure no trace of cat hair etc. 🚨Booking Policies🚨 -Cancellations after booking require 50% of pay. Cancellations within 24 hours/same day require 100% of pay. *Applies to last-minute bookings and sick days as well* -Minimum of 4 hours per booking.

This includes children with a fever over 101°F, any contagious virus, and any other symptoms. Thank you for understanding 😊

Vasty was a wonderful babysitter for my son and his cousin! She showed up on time and my 19 month old immediately took a liking to her. She had no problem entertaining both boys, getting them dinner, and putting the youngest to bed. If we lived in the area, she would be our go to!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
