Booked by 3 families in South San Francisco, CA

My name is Maria Jasmine and I bring over 13 years of professional nanny experience specializing in newborns, infants, and toddlers. I’ve worked with families of 1–2 children and pride myself on creating a nurturing, safe, and enriching environment where little ones can thrive. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, CPR certified, and fully up to date on all vaccinations including COVID and booster. I have a clean driving record and am happy to use my personal car to take children on age-appropriate outings to playgrounds, museums, the zoo, and other local adventures that support learning and curiosity. I love incorporating music, storytelling, sensory play, and early learning activities into each day. I tailor experiences based on your child’s developmental stage and interests. Walks, nature play, and local park visits are part of our daily rhythm. I believe children grow best when they’re active and engaged with the world around them. I have hands-on experience with sleep training, baby-led weaning, and helping children reach key milestones in a calm, supportive way. I work closely with parents to provide consistent updates, collaborate on routines, and ensure we’re always aligned on what’s best for your child. I’m organized, proactive, and respectful of your home, and I support structure and routines that make your days smoother and more enjoyable. Above all, I care deeply about helping children feel safe, confident, and loved whether we’re snuggling with a book or discovering worms after the rain. I come highly recommended and would love to connect to see if I’m the right fit for your family.

Booked by 2 families in South San Francisco, CA

Hi, my name is Joyce, and I'm a dog mom and cat mom. I'm also a daughter of an aging parent, sister, and aunt. I provide babysitting (including for infants and toddlers), nanny, mother's helper, household assistant, senior care, pet care, house sitting, and household services. I've taken care of my niece and nephew from when they were born and throughout their childhoods. I also have experience with infants, toddlers, as well as middle school and high school. I grew up in the same area as my grandparents, and also worked at the senior center in my hometown growing up, so I'm very used to being around seniors. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. (I also love board games and hearing people's stories!) I've been in sales and customer-facing roles most of my life, and I love to make people feel at home and comfortable. I'm an empath, so very attuned to people's emotions. I also love conversation and talking about a wide range of topics. As it relates to pet care: I have a cat and a dog currently, and have also had fish, leopard geckos, and hermit crabs as pets, and volunteered in a Biology Lab with many animals, both mammals and reptiles. As it relates to house sitting: I'm experienced in house sitting, including watching pets while house sitting. I can water your plants, take out the trash weekly, and make sure anything else you need is taken care of. If you'd like help cleaning while you're away, I can do that as well. As it relates to household services: I'm experienced in coordinating repairs and vendors, cleaning, cooking, grocery shopping, organization, cleaning, managing vendors, and planning. I can also do personal assistant projects as well.

"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
