Cheyanne $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Cheyanne, a college student studying pre-nursing with a dream of becoming a Labor & Delivery nurse. Caring for others isn't just something I do, it's genuinely who I am. I've been a trusted caregiver for over 10 years, looking after my nieces, nephews, and children of extended family and friends from infancy through school age. I grew up fast and took on a nurturing, reliable role with my siblings from a young age, and that sense of responsibility has only grown stronger over time. Families know me as someone who shows up, stays calm, and genuinely invests in the children I care for. Professionally, I'm currently volunteering weekly in a NICU, where I spend time reading to newborns and infants who are navigating serious illnesses and medical challenges during their earliest days of life. It's taught me patience, gentleness, and a deep attentiveness to the needs of the most vulnerable little ones and it's one of the most meaningful things I do. Reading has always been a passion of mine, so getting to share that with babies who need comfort and connection feels like exactly where I'm supposed to be. I also have volunteered with the East Oakland Collective for the past few years, a community organization dedicated to supporting Oakland's most vulnerable residents. It's an experience that has deepened my empathy and commitment to showing up consistently for others. Beyond childcare, I'm happy to help with cooking, light household tasks, or errands — whatever makes your family's day run a little smoother. When I'm not caregiving or studying, you'll find me reading, writing, or staying active. I'm a former track athlete and exercise is still a big part of my life. I also keep a Substack as a creative outlet and a way to express myself. I'm a big believer that curiosity, movement, and storytelling are all gifts worth nurturing in children too. What sets me apart is the heart I bring to this work. My nursing path has shaped me into someone who is compassionate, patient, and dependable, and I take that same standard of care into every family I work with. I'd love the opportunity to be someone your family can genuinely count on!

Marfa $25 per hour for 1 child

I have 6 years of experience working with children as a long-term nanny, babysitter, and daycare assistant, caring for children from newborns through school age. I hold a bachelor’s degree in psychology, which helps guide my understanding of child development, emotional regulation, and individual needs. I’m deeply committed to building trusting relationships with parents and making families feel at ease. Clear communication, consistency, and emotional attunement are central to the way I provide my care. I strive to create a safe, nurturing environment where children feel supported and encouraged to grow. I enjoy outdoor play, reading, writing, drawing, motor-skill activities, cooking and mealtimes, and incorporating music into daily routines. I look forward to connecting with your family and your little ones.

"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)."
