Hi families! I’m Alejandra, a Bay Area native, proud mom, and experienced childcare provider with 8+ years of hands-on experience caring for children from infancy through school age. I’ve worked with families in both babysitting and nanny roles, and I truly love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable and supported. My experience includes infant and toddler care, school-age care, diapering, bottle feeding, naps/bedtime routines, school pickups, homework help, meal/snack prep, and keeping kids engaged with fun, age-appropriate activities. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your children, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have a clean driving record, and I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, errands, and family support as needed. Whether you’re looking for an occasional/date-night sitter or a dependable full-time nanny, I’d love to connect and see if I’d be a good fit for your family!

*New to this site, I have references Hello, My name is Heather. I have over 20 years of experience being a babysitter/nanny. I'm TrustLine certified; I was a full time nanny through college and a bit after I graduated watching children from infants to pre-teens. [Currently in between jobs] I work in the renewable energy industry, feel free to check out my LinkedIn:[removed] I love being creative (dancing, painting, etc.), playing hide and seek, dressing up, tea parties, trips to the park and local events, and above all else being a super fun and trustworthy partner of growing families!

Heather was wonderful! My daughter had a difficult time adjusting when we left and was crying and having trouble connecting at first, but Heather was incredibly patient, calm, and understanding with her. She never seemed frustrated and gave her the time and space she needed to warm up. I really appreciated how caring and attentive she was, especially during a challenging moment. It gave me peace of mind knowing my daughter was with someone so patient and kind. I would absolutely recommend Heather and would be happy to have her babysit for us again.

"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

"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
