Aisling $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Aisling, and I’m a dependable, caring, and energetic caregiver based in San Francisco and Oxford Ms. I have years of experience babysitting for families with children of different ages, along with experience in customer service, retail, and hospitality, which has taught me patience, responsibility, communication, and how to stay calm in busy situations. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for them. I love outdoor activities, arts and crafts, games, helping with homework, and keeping children engaged instead of just putting them in front of a screen. Growing up in San Francisco near Ocean Beach and Golden Gate Park, I’ve always loved being active and outdoors, and I enjoy bringing that energy into caregiving. I’m also comfortable helping with pets, light housekeeping, meal prep, errands, and maintaining a clean and organized home. Families would describe me as trustworthy, friendly, hardworking, and attentive. I always try to make both parents and children feel comfortable, supported, and cared for.

Booked by 2 families in South San Francisco, CA

I’m a responsible, highly attuned caregiver with a background in healthcare and research, offering thoughtful, reliable support to Bay Area families on an as-needed basis. My experience in patient-facing clinical settings has shaped a calm, observant approach—where safety, clear communication, and steady presence are second nature. I work confidently with infants through school-age children and am particularly attentive to routines, medications, and nuanced care instructions. I stay closely in tune with developmental needs and day-to-day rhythms, supported both by my professional background and time spent caring for my young nephews (ages 2 and 4). I’m consistently described as reliable, punctual, and easy to work with. I’m currently available for: • Occasional and backup care • Evenings and date nights • Short-term or interim coverage Based in San Francisco and happy to discuss scheduling, family needs, and rates. I value building long-term trust and becoming a dependable “go-to” for the families I work with. BS in Psychology, University of Minnesota CPR Certified 3.5+ years in care roles (nanny, dementia care, psychiatric care, home health)

Carolyn was so wonderful! She connected with our daughter and they had so much fun together. Very sweet and reliable

Booked by 1 family in South San Francisco, CA

Hi! I’m a nanny with strong experience caring for children of all ages, with a particular specialty in infants and early development. I’ve supported babies from as young as 7 weeks through their first year, building structured routines around feeding, sleep, and developmental milestones. I bring a calm, intuitive, and highly attentive presence into the home. My approach blends nurturing care with gentle structure, helping children feel secure while supporting their growth and independence. I’m confident managing busy households, anticipating needs, and maintaining a seamless, organized environment for both children and parents. I value clear communication, discretion, and reliability, and I take pride in being someone families can fully trust. I’m also very comfortable in pet-friendly homes and enjoy being part of a well-run household. I’m looking to align with a thoughtful family who values consistency, quality care, and a warm, professional presence.

"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)."
