Hi! My name is Sol, I’m originally from Peru and have lived in the Bay Area for 10 years now. I’m fluent in English and Spanish.

Booked by 2 families in South San Francisco, CA

Hi! My name is Janetzy, and I have over 7 years of experience working with children of all ages. I have 4+ years of experience caring for infants, 6+ years working with toddlers, and over 7 years supporting and mentoring children in general. My journey in childcare began in 2019 when I started working at an after-school program, where I tutored elementary school students, supervised activities, and helped create a safe and engaging environment for children after school. Through that experience, I discovered how much I genuinely enjoy working with kids and helping them learn, grow, and build confidence. Since then, I have continued to gain experience through babysitting and nannying, caring for children with a variety of needs, personalities, and age groups. In addition to my childcare experience, I have a creative background and earned my degree in Film and Television Production from USC. I currently pursue creative work as a filmmaker, director, and editor. My creative background allows me to bring imagination, storytelling, arts and crafts, and fun educational activities into my time with children. I love encouraging creativity, curiosity, and self-expression while making sure children feel supported and engaged. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, which allows me to communicate effectively with bilingual families and introduce children to a second language through everyday conversation, play, and learning activities when desired. I am patient, responsible, dependable, and passionate about creating a nurturing environment where children feel safe, valued, and cared for. Whether it's helping with homework, planning activities, maintaining routines, or simply being a positive role model, I strive to make a meaningful impact on the families I work with. I look forward to meeting your family!

Janetzy was our nanny full time taking care of my daughter since she was 4 months old. She was also taking care of my toddler in the evening and we could not have asked for a better caregiver. She is incredibly reliable, punctual, trustworthy, and wonderful with young children. She quickly became an important part of our family and we feel incredibly fortunate to have had her in our lives during those early year. I cannot recommend her enough. Marina

Hello ! I am currently working in sf Mon-Friday for a family but looking for extra hours ! I have lots of experience with all ages of children youngest being a newborn and oldest is 13. I am the oldest of 8 children so I am qualified in the baby sitting department but I had a yr of paid babysitting. I am a very patience person so I can deal with a lot of things when it comes to children, I am very reliable. I have learned throughout my years of babysitting my siblings how to handle many situations with children whether it be to entertain them, putting them to bed, bathing& feeding them to little conflicts they could have. I believe that I am the perfect fit for what you are looking for & together we can create a safe & loving environment for your children. My availability is valid for as long as you need me it does not expire. I like working with kids because they remind me of youth, love & being able to have fun. It's a beautiful thing to witness.

"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)."
