Hi, I’m Cristina! I have over six years of experience caring for children from 10 months to 14 years old. I love babysitting because I enjoy doing fun projects with kids and taking them to the park. My interest in childcare really grew from helping take care of my little cousin with Down syndrome, which taught me a lot about patience and how rewarding it is to care for children. A little about me: I love reading, spending time with family and friends, and learning new things. I also have a dog that I love taking to the beach! I’m open to traveling with families as well. Thanks so much for taking the time to read a little about me!

Hi, I have two kids and I am a paraprofessional for the San Francisco unified school district for over 10 years. My daughter is in middle school and my son in college. I have experience with children of all ages, from changing diapers to potty training. I work really well with kids and I am very organized. I can speak English Cantonese and Mandarin fluently if you would like your children to have more exposure with these languages. I would like to work with your family, please message me if you have any questions.

Angel was great with our 10 month old!

Hi! My name is Maya and I am a recent Berkeley graduate! I live in Daly City and have been babysitting multiple families throughout the Bay Area over the past 9 years! I’ve provided childcare for children ages 1-10 and as well as have experience working with children with special needs and learning disabilities. I also have taken on additional duties such as tutoring in Math and English, after school pickup and drop offs (I have my own vehicle!), taking children to parks, museums, etc and I’ve been on care.com for a few years now and decided to try Urban Sitter! I have a very flexible schedule this summer and can connect you with references and answer any questions!

My kids had a wonderful time with Maya. They were asking for her to come back before she even left!

Hi my name is Nicole I am originally from South Africa . I have been in au pair program for two years which is simply a live in situation for two years which was wonderful both the families were awesome . Currently doing part time nanny jobs whenever I get a family that needs my help and I do household duties too ( watching pets too ) . I had a baby in December who currently started going to daycare so I love helping out during my spare time with watching other babies as I find it easy working with babies and children . I am willing to take the children to an nearby park since it is summer time now , prepared snacks and meals for the children , put the kids down for nap time and read books I love love reading books ! So does my baby haha. Hoping to work with a kind loving family . I have also recent started loving the idea of watching seniors so if there is a family looking for an in home carer I am open to training so I can watch the senior .

Very sweet young lady

"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
