Her warm and nurturing demeanor was profound to me, and that inspired me to pay that experience forward. The experience that I have with children ranges from newborn to middle school children.

Nell $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Altadena, CA

Hiya! I’m Nell, a recent graduate of Carnegie Mellon University’s School of Drama. I have several years of experience working with children and love creating a fun, supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and engaged. I’ve babysat a 4–6 year old, helping with meals, playtime, reading, and bedtime routines. For the past three summers, I’ve also worked as a summer school and camp assistant teacher for elementary school students. During those summers, I worked with a cooking education program called Radical Cooks in California, where we taught kids how to cook French recipes. I mostly assisted the instructor but also led my own classes about once a week, teaching groups of 12–20 kids. With my background in theater, I love keeping kids engaged through storytelling, games, crafts, and imaginative play. I’m happy to help with meals, bedtime routines, and fun activities, and I’m available for evenings, date nights, and occasional weekend babysitting.

"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."
