Hi Families, I’m Mari, I am a SF native and mommy of one. I have previously worked for licensed daycare/preschool facilities as both a Receptionist and Teacher Assistant. I’ve always have had a passion for learning and teaching young children. I started with YMCA as an After School program leader and have also worked for Ronald McDonald House of Charities helping to plan and lead programs and activities (mostly arts and crafts) for patients and families. It’s amazing to see little ones grow and learn new skills, even in just one day! I am looking forward to getting to know you and your little ones.

Seylin $28 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Seylin. I have several years of experience supporting families through dependable childcare and household assistance. I began babysitting in high school and later coached a children’s soccer team, gaining experience working with children across different age groups while maintaining structure, safety, and positive routines. I also participated in a school mentorship program, where I guided younger students to remain academically focused and make positive life choices. Additionally, I volunteered with children with special needs, assisting with reading, daily activities, and supervised campus outings. I offer babysitting and nannying services, including school pick ups and drop offs, age appropriate activity supervision, and homework support. I also provide pet care, including walking, feeding, and companionship, and I am experienced with dogs of all breeds and sizes. In addition, I am willing to assist with errands, light cleaning, organizing, and general household support as needed. I am reliable, attentive, and committed to maintaining a safe, respectful, and well organized environment for children, pets, and families.

Madessa $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Madessa. I'm a loving and gentle caregiver with a true passion for working with children. I've spent one wonderful year as a preschool teacher and two years as a child caregiver. I have taken Early Childhood Education courses at CCSF. The children I've worked with always hold a special place in my heart. I'm so lucky that many families from my preschool days still keep in touch and ask me to babysit. I'm calm, patient and tuned in to each child's needs. Safety and trust are very important to me. I always bring a kind, attentive and responsible presence into the home. I'm also happy to help with light housekeeping to keep things running smoothly. I truly love what I do and I look forward to meeting your little one :)

Monica $50 per hour for 1 child

Aloha! I’m a warm, dependable, and family-oriented mom of two, with a 13-year-old son and a 22-year-old daughter who is currently in her second year of college. Being a mom has been one of my greatest joys and has given me years of hands-on experience caring for children through every stage and personality. I come from a huge, close-knit family with kiddos of all ages, so caring for children has always been a natural and meaningful part of my life. I truly enjoy creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. For the past 8 years, I’ve worked in education, which has given me a strong understanding of children’s individual needs, development, learning styles, and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and believe in making kids feel seen, heard, and supported. I’m also deeply rooted in Hawaiʻi, where family, connection, kindness, and community are such an important part of who I am. I bring that same spirit into the care I provide. I’d love the opportunity to become a trusted and caring part of your family’s village! 🌺

"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)."
