Hi! When I came to this country, I always dreamt of working with kids, but I found whatever job I could. I am now at a point where I can do what I love. I have three grandchildren (ages 11, 9 & 8) and I was their primary care taker since they were born, while working my other job. I can’t explain how much I’ve enjoyed it. I am not the best with technology & sometimes my English isn’t as quick (it’s at a 75%), but I use all my resources & can figure it all out. I take my job seriously and am very cautious & devoted to it. If given cthe opportunity, you won’t regret it. And I love pet too…I work with a family in the mornings (7:00-10:00)

Hi families! My name is Yasmin. I am a 30 year old childcare professional with 10 years of experience. My passion for working with children began at home as the oldest of four siblings–my youngest brother is only 7, and watching them grow has been a inspiration for my career. My professional journey began in 2017 during an exchange program in Switzerland, where I cared for a child from birth through age two. I later moved to the U.S. as an Au Pair, caring for three girls (ages 16 months, 4, and 6). Since then, I’ve continued working with families while consistently building and improving my skills. I am a certified postpartum doula and maintain CPR/First Aid certification for infants and children every two years. I have hands-on experience with feeding, diapering, and soothing newborns, including overnight care as a nighttime nanny. I’m also confident caring for babies who are learning to crawl or walk, and I enjoy encouraging their development through gentle play and interaction. In addition, I have experience with toddlers and school-aged children, supporting everything from potty training and homework help to meal prep and bedtime routines. I’ve also worked with children on the autism spectrum. I would love to bring my experience, flexibility, and positive energy to your family. I’m pet-friendly and have a valid driver’s license. I look forward to connecting with you!

Yasmin was great with our 4-year-old daughter. Our usually shy daughter was sad when Yasmin had to leave and ran up to give her a big hug goodbye. Highly recommend.

Booked by 5 families in Walnut Creek, CA

Hello! My name is Brianna Tancioco, and I’m a 26-year-old caregiver with six years of babysitting and nanny experience. I originally began caregiving to support myself through college, but over time I discovered how much I truly love working with children and building long-term, meaningful relationships with families. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for children from newborns through 13 years old, including siblings close in age. I’m comfortable managing different routines, personalities, and developmental stages, and I enjoy helping siblings learn how to coexist, cooperate, and grow together. I value consistency, clear boundaries, and positive reinforcement, and I’m happy to help instill good habits like cleaning up after themselves while also stepping in when extra support is needed. Aside from nannying, my hobbies include photography, traveling, and learning about different cultures. I run a photography club called @sf_clickcollective, where I host monthly photowalks and bring people together to explore new places through photography. As for my photography, I post it on @brianna._.clicks I also love learning about different cultures and hope to one day live in Japan. I’m currently studying Japanese and working toward earning my Japanese language certificate so I can continue growing my connection with the culture.

On time, supper kind, my son had a great time his words we’re it would be perfect if she could come again

Booked by 1 family in Walnut Creek, CA

Hello! I’m Kelcie and I’m a 25 year old who loves being involved with kids. I currently live in Concord but I grew up in Alameda. I was a nanny for a family with 2 kids (2yrs & 6mth) before they moved out of state. I’m patient, empathetic and caring. I love getting kids involved in fun activities like at-home DIYs but also make sure to get outside to soak up some vitamin D! In my free time, I love going to Lake Tahoe with my family and skiing with my sister. I love to go camping, being with friends, listening to music and reading a good book (The Five People You Meet In Heaven by Mitch Albom, amazing read!). I hope to make your life more convenient!

We have been so impressed with Kelcie! She always arrives on time with a smile on her face and has proven to be reliable, flexible, and honest. It’s refeshing to have a sitter/nanny who has really good common sense, it certainly helps me feel comfortable leaving my kids in her care!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
