Booked by 1 family in Altadena, CA

Decades of experience with the added spice of an artist is what you get! Oldest child in my family coupled with being one of the oldest cousins with additional neighborhood children always around means it’s been many years of childcare experience for me! I currently help with a 4 year old boy and a 1 year old girl regularly. Years back I helped a family with 4 kids. I’m an excellent aunt to my nieces and nephews too!

Victoria $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Victoria, I’m 29 years old, and I’m a graduate of California State University, Fullerton with a degree in History. My background is in secondary education, and I’ve always had a deep passion for working with children. I have four years of nannying experience with kids ranging in age from 4 to 18, and I find so much joy in supporting both their academic and creative development. I believe childhood enrichment is incredibly important, and I love incorporating fun and educational activities into daily routines. As an artist who enjoys drawing and painting, I’m always excited to share those skills with children and encourage their creativity. I’m also available to tutor in a wide range of school subjects, including help with homework, projects, and essay writing. In addition to childcare, I’m a huge animal lover! I have two cats and one dog of my own, all of whom I’ve raised since they were young. I’d be happy to help care for family pets as part of my role. My goal as a nanny is simple: to make your life easier. Whether that means running errands, assisting with pet care, helping with older family members, or creating a safe, structured, and engaging environment for your children—I’m here to support your family however I can.

I am a caring, reliable, and experienced childcare professional with over 15 years of experience working with young children in a preschool setting. I have worked as a Lead Preschool Teacher for the City of San Marino, caring for and teaching children ages 2–4 years old. I have experience helping children develop important early-learning and life skills, including potty training, early writing skills, phonics, basic motor skills, singing, dancing, and age-appropriate educational activities. I also provide one-on-one phonics instruction to help children build confidence with early reading and literacy. I am patient, nurturing, dependable, and passionate about creating a safe and positive environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. I have a reliable vehicle and am CPR certified. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience and caring approach to a family looking for a trustworthy and dedicated childcare provider.

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"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."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
