👋 Hi there!! My name is Alejandra and I’ve provided nanny services to families for 10+ years (including HP families) I have been taking care of newborns, toddlers and older kids as well (I can provide references) and kids with special needs. Throughout my experiences of watching/raising children, I’ve driven them to/from school, took them to private classes, played with them and made sure that they are happy, healthy, and safe always! Assisted with night routine, provided cooking for the kids and help with light tied up after the kids (I don’t mind to do light tied up in general and help with light cooking but I don’t do housekeeping chores) I’m CPR and First Aid certified. I speak Spanish and English, I can speak some Portuguese and Italian. I’ve been taking some courses (because I always like to learn new things and I find them helpful) including: Nutrition and cooking for kids, Foundation of Positive Psychology Specialization, Everyday Parenting. I love to do outdoor activities and workout in my free time, reading, traveling and watch movies! I also have experience watching dogs, including walking, feeding, playtime, and potty time. I absolutely love both kids and animals and would love to be able to work with your family!

Hello! My name is Alondra I am 25 years old. I have been a babysitter and nanny since I was in high school and have experience with newborns-12 year olds, and even twins! My love and patience towards children comes from taking care of my younger siblings being the oldest growing up. I have since then worked as a nanny/ babysitter for multiple amazing families. In addition to the childcare responsibilities, I have also assisted in homework, meal prepping and light housekeeping. Most importantly, I enjoy making long lasting connections and relationships with all the families I work with! It is what I enjoy and cherish the most. Typically with kiddos, I let them lead with their own interests to build rapport and trust but I especially love encouraging creative/imaginary play, hands on learning activities and arts&crafts! I am Fire Safety and First Aid certified. I am fully vaccinated and boosted and live in a fully vaccinated household. A little bit about me: I have a B.A. in psychology from San Francisco State where I also took child development and special education courses! I currently nanny and babysit for two sweet girls who are both almost 2! I like being outdoors, staying active and a book worm! Also love all types of animals! I take a more gentle approach when it comes to the kids I work it. That being said, I am committed to supporting your family and implementing practices that best meet your needs.

“Alondra was so sweet and great with both of my kids (toddler and baby). She was always on time and communicative.”

Hi, I had two wonderful back to back long term jobs. Those jobs ended when the child started pre-school. I am now looking for a new family. I was a Production Coordinator on Hollywood Films for 20 years. I am naturally detailed oriented, highly organized, and an excellent multi-tasker. I now enjoy babysitting because it allows me to play outdoors with Kids! I love doing creative projects with kids like: arts and crafts, painting, coloring, reading, and Play-Doh. I enjoy being outside, going to parks, beaches and libraries. My hobbies include cooking, home organizing, Pet and House Sitting. 4 Hour Minimum per Booking. I am extremely flexible. I can usually come early and may be able to stay later. If you need a regular schedule, we can do a flat rate. Please let me know if you have any questions. Debbie

“Debbie looked after my 22month old daughter over 3 days whilst her daycare was closed. They had the most wonderful time from playing in parks, to visiting local libraries, Debbie was absolutely fantastic and I deeply appreciated how caring and thoughtful she was. Highly reccomend”

"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."

"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)."
