Booked by 1 family in Valley Ford, CA

I have been working as a caregiver in and around Petaluma for the past 10 years. I have cared for children from the ages of 4 months to 9 years, and have done many nanny shares. I've always felt that children must come first in a parent's life, and so I was a full time mother to my 2 sons, now aged 21 and 24. I am very conscientious and responsible, patient and understanding of the nature and needs of children. All the families that I have worked with have always been very happy to see the deep bonds that I have forged with their children. I enjoy being outside with children, taking them to the park and other outings, and I particularly like reading to them. I can of course provide excellent references.have been working as a caregiver in and around Petaluma for the past 10 years.

Grace $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Grace, and I’m a senior in high school who attends school online, which gives me a very flexible schedule and makes me available most days. I’ve always loved working with kids and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I’m patient, caring, responsible, and easy to get along with. I love keeping kids entertained, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and safe. I’m also dependable and will always do my best to make things easy and stress-free for parents. I’m excited to meet new families and help wherever I can!

"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)."
