Loving and Calm Childcare Provider | Experienced Nanny & Mom Hi, my name is Nceba. I was born and raised in South Africa and have worked as a professional childcare provider in the Bay Area since 2019. I’m also a proud wife and mom to a sweet toddler, which has given me an even deeper understanding of child development and the day-to-day needs of babies and young children. I trained at the Au Pair Training School in New York through Cultural Care, where I learned how to support children through different developmental stages. With nearly a decade of childcare experience, I especially enjoy caring for infants and toddlers ages 6–24 months. As a mother, I also bring first-hand experience with newborn care and toddler milestones. Experience Highlights: * Former live-in au pair for two children, ages 5 and 7 * More than six years of professional nanny experience with Bay Area families * Older sister to five siblings, giving me years of natural, hands-on childcare experience * Mom to a toddler, with real-life experience from the newborn stage through toddlerhood What I Offer: I enjoy creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. Depending on their age, our days may include reading, singing, sensory play, baby or toddler massage, outdoor walks, creative activities, and early learning through play. For long-term positions, I’m also happy to help with child-related chores such as preparing children’s meals, organizing their belongings, doing their laundry, and keeping their play and eating areas tidy. About Me: Families describe me as calm, patient, dependable, and nurturing. Outside of childcare, I enjoy art and visiting museums. I speak English fluently, as well as Zulu, Xhosa, and Afrikaans. I currently freelance remotely and also work occasionally with a wonderful family who allows me to bring my toddler. This arrangement has worked beautifully for everyone and has created a great partnership between our families. Although I’m not actively seeking just any position, I’m always eager to help when I meet a wonderful family and we feel like a genuinely great match. My long-term goal is to become a postpartum doula so I can provide compassionate, knowledgeable support to both mothers and babies during the early stages of life.

“Nonceba is awesome! My kids loved her and the baby. I think they have a new favorite sitter now. Thanks for the help, and the kids can't wait until you come back again!”

Booked by 13 families in Union City, CA

Hi, my name is Jiwanjot but I go by Bubbles. I’m currently a student at SF State majoring in Nursing but I commute from Fremont. I also stay in SF some days so I’m able to provide care there as well. My experience includes helping care for my four younger cousins for about 2-3 years very frequently during the pandemic. Their ages ranged from about 2-7 at the time, but I have cared for them in the infant stages as well. I’ve done things such as preparing meals, tidying the house, changing diapers, and helping with schoolwork. I’m willing to help with any other things needed around the house as well. I’ve enjoyed spending time with kids of all ages and found that I get along with them incredibly well!

“It was a great experience with Jiwanjot. She helped my friend out in a last minute pinch after a sitter cancelled on her for a school pick up when she was already at work. She responded very quickly and followed all instructions to a tee. She was very nice, my nephew said he really enjoyed his time with her. Thank you Jiwanjot! ”

Fully vaccinated (Pfizer) 25 years old, bilingual (Spanish, English) female. I am a therapist for kids with autism during the day as well as a nanny. I am CPR certified, covid vaccinated(with booster!) and have worked with many children from the ages of 17 and younger. I worked for the Hayward Unified School District with children from ages of 3-14 in a classroom setting. I am energetic, fun and loving.

“Berenize watched my son for an hour every weekday morning for 6 months and then took him to daycare. She was punctual and very responsible. She also took initiative and did light cleaning without me asking. I couldn’t recommend her higher. We have since moved, but would happily hire her again.”

Booked by 2 families in Union City, CA

Hi, my name is Jordan! I’m 31 years old, and I have always had a love for working with children and helping others. I worked as a teacher at EDCC, an after-school program in Dublin, for three years. During my time there, I worked with children of different ages, taught science activities, helped with homework, and enjoyed watching them learn and grow. I am currently in nursing school working toward becoming a nurse, and I also have five years of experience working as a Medical Assistant. My experience in both childcare and healthcare has taught me how important it is to be patient, caring, responsible, and attentive to the needs of others. I truly enjoy working with children, creating a safe and positive environment for them, and being someone families can trust and depend on.

"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)."
