Kimberly $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kimberly, and I am currently an undergraduate college student with experience working with elementary-aged children. In high school, I helped teach sports during elementary school grade students’ recreational periods, where I learned how to keep kids engaged, active, and safe. I have had my driver’s license for over 2 years and would be available to run errands or do school pick up/drop offs at extracurriculars or to your home. I have experience in pet care, as I have a dog of my own and foster kittens in my free time. I have also grown up caring for family friends’ children through regular babysitting and encouragement off their screens. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I pride myself on being patient, empathetic, and communicative. As a bonus, I also love baking and would feel comfortable helping prepare meals or snacks! Feel free to reach out — I would love to help your family!

Annazette $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a fun, responsible mom who truly understands how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your family. I love creating a positive environment where kids feel safe, happy, and entertained. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, doing crafts, reading, or planning fun Disney-style days full of imagination and laughter, I enjoy keeping kids engaged while also helping maintain their routines. I’m patient, dependable, and naturally nurturing. As a mom myself, I understand how much trust parents place in someone caring for their children. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks like tidying up, organizing, meal prep, or running small errands to make busy family days a little easier. I also enjoy spending time with seniors and providing companionship, helping with everyday tasks like cooking, light cleaning, organizing, or simply being there for conversation and support. I truly enjoy helping families feel supported and at ease knowing their loved ones are in good hands. If you’re looking for someone caring, reliable, and fun who treats your family with kindness and respect, I would love to get to know you and your family. Also I have a 6 year old daughter who loves to meet new friends so if it’s an option to bring her along then that would be amazing !!

Renetta $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I'm Renetta. I'm an Angeleno by way of Texas who'd love to connect with some families in my area to lend a helping hand. I've spent many years in the film industry, and spent the first part of my life and career in social work, at youth centers, and helping out folks with their kiddos. The privilege of being a part of how children grow and thrive is one of my personal "why's", and the opportunity to do so is truly an honor. My schedule is flexible, and I'm open to and believe in being inclusive of all family structures and types. My approach is inclusive of all identities and needs. If this sounds like we'd be a fit, please don't hesitate to reach out!

"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."
