Hi! I’m Bella, a 23-year-old San Francisco native with several years of babysitting experience. I love working with kids and creating fun, active days filled with trips to the park, museums, arts and crafts, and outdoor adventures. I have been babysitting on and off for over 4 years. I have watched kids ranging from 2-13! I love animals and have two cats I love so much. First Aid and CPR certified! In my free time, I practice yoga, enjoy arts and crafts, and love camping in my truck, so I’m always excited to help kids explore, stay creative, and enjoy nature.

Maria $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I've been working with kids for six years now! I am organized, kind and resilient. I have worked with kids from 5 months old to 11 years old during this time. I'm used with the BLW method and Montessori for babies/toddles. I'll always use the positive discipline method with the kids because I believe that is the best way for them to learn about life. I value respect as well as honest and clear communication. I am an active person that loves the outdoors activities. I like doing crafts, playing games/puzzles and cooking with the kids. I believe these activities are really important for the kids development and I'm all for it! I am looking for a full time position. I hope to hear from you soon. Thank you, Maria.

"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)."
