Booked by 3 families in Acton, CA

Hi, my name is Sony and I love children. I moved out to LA from NY for acting. I’m offering child care, dog care, senior care, running errands and household services. I’ve worked with kids of all ages from 1 yrs old and older. Currently babysit for a few families. I’ve helped raise all of my little cousins and nieces (twins) from birth until they were teenagers. I would feed them, play with them, drop off/pick up from school, and put them to sleep. I started doing this when I was 10 yrs old. At 13 yrs old I started babysitting the neighbors kids that were 1 and 3 yrs old. I also worked at a daycare in NY taking care of 1 to 2.5 year olds. I was a nanny for a family in Los Angeles that had 2 kids that were 4 and 7. I made them dinner, gave them baths, cleaned up after them and put them to sleep. Children naturally love me. I’m very personable, empathetic, compassionate and fun. I am comfortable with senior care and dog care. I’ve taken care of my grandparents and friends of family that were seniors. I’ve house and dog sat for friends and family as well. I can also work as a household assistant. I’m open to doing other tasks as well since I have personal assistant experience.

“We love Sony! She was with our family consistently for 1.5 years, until our girls started school full time. She is timely, communicative, creative, and trustworthy. There is no one my girls like to ply with more.”

I am seeking employment as a Nanny because I love to help care and nurture your child with a routine of endless patience, fun, games, discipline, basically well rounded day that will keep your child busy but not bored. I am a very responsible, hard working, efficient, multitasking, caring person who just loves assisting people with everyday life. I make a point of making sure that everyone that is around me is taken care of that they are happy. I’m a mother of four adult children and grandmother to two boys. I was a caregiver for about four years to a wonderful family and switched to Nanny for the past four years. I have such great memories with them but my time with them ran its course. The mother decided to stay home with the boys and that’s why I’m looking forward to my new endeavor with a new future family.

“I'm happy to recommend my mom, who I've always known to be wonderful with children. I've seen firsthand how naturally caring and attentive she is with my little nephews, and it's clear how much she genuinely enjoys spending time with kids. The family she previously cared for always spoke so fondly of her, and from everything my mom shared, it was clear she had built a sweet bond with the children. It was such a special bond that the parents even made a custom book for the kids to remember her by. She has a very nurturing personality, and truly cares about the kids in her care. I don't have children of my own, but my cat Booger is the closest thing I have to a child, and my mom is incredibly sweet and loving with him too. Whenever we go away for a couple of days, she goes above and beyond to follow my very detailed instructions and make sure he's well cared for. I highly recommend her to any family looking for someone loving, dependable and experienced.”

Hi there! My name is Rayven. I’m looking for a way to earn extra income to help my mom with the bills. I’m a very responsible and respectful hard worker. I have 2 years of babysitting experience. My brother has 3 kids so I’ve learned a lot and would love to learn more from other families. I enjoy working with children and love playing games, doing arts and crafts, and keeping kids engaged in fun and safe activities. I’m also reliable with house sitting and pet care. I have 3 dogs and 2 cats, so l’m very comfortable feeding, walking, and playing with both. I can help with any house chores like cleaning and meal preparation/cooking.

“Rayven is amazing! I hired her for a dog sitting job and she took great care of them. She’s very attentive and will go above and beyond. My dogs and I hope to see her again soon!”

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
