Ingrid $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Ingrid, and I currently work for the SFUSD. I have also worked at the Early Education School (EDD). I offer childcare, elder care, and housekeeping services. I love caring for young children and am very helpful. I have been caring for children since I was 14 because I have three younger siblings and two nieces. My responsibilities have included driving them to school, picking them up, feeding them, helping them with their homework, playing with them, exercising with them, and taking them to the park. I can also do grocery shopping and run errands, and I can walk dogs. I am very allergic to cats, but I am happy to work families who have dogs.

Kailey $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Kailey, I’ve always loved being around kids and helping families. I’m a reliable, patient, and attentive caregiver with hands-on experience caring for young children, including providing consistent care for a two-year-old for a family over an extended period of time. Through that experience, I became comfortable managing toddler routines such as meal prep, playtime, naps, diaper changes, and maintaining a safe and structured environment. I’ve grown up around children my whole life and naturally connect well with them. I genuinely enjoy being part of their learning and development — whether that’s encouraging creativity through play, reading together, helping with early learning skills, or simply being a calm and steady presence they can feel comfortable around. I understand how important trust is when inviting someone into your home and around your child. I prioritize safety, clear communication, and consistency, and I aim to support parents by making their day easier while ensuring their child feels secure and cared for. I’m dependable, organized, and attentive to individual needs, and I take pride in being someone families can rely on.

"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)."
