Hi! My name is Alexia but I go by Mars! I am 24 years old, and I am an actress and musician. I have been babysitting & nannying children since I was 12, and grew up in a big family so I’ve always been around kids. I have worked with children from newborns to 15 year olds. I have worked with a few great families long term in the past couple of years most recently a job that ended in july, and can provide recent references upon request :) I love taking care of children and am a very creative person so I love doing activities such as drawing, painting, cooking, reading, helping with homework etc. Making sure that they are safe and happy is my top priority. I am fully vaccinated and can provide proof. I am also willing to help with housework and cleaning if necessary. I have a reliable means of transportation as well so if they need rides, I am happy to do so. I am a very responsible and patient person and your child will always be my first priority no matter what. I am available to interview and get to know your family whenever just let me know, I look forward to meeting you and hopefully helping your family out! :)
“Mars cared for my 1-year old son for 5 days a week summer 2023 while I worked remotely. She was always on time and communicated clearly throughout the day. Mars is great at following a lunch/nap/snack schedule — so important for children at this age (and mine in particular, really thrives on a schedule). Mars is cautious, caring, and kind. I felt like she always put my child’s interests first. ”
Hi - My name is Antonella I am offering child care I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers (including twins!) since I was 25 years old I have had the opportunity to go on a trip with families taking care of their babies , Work in a school I have 5 years of experience and very good references
“Antonella was amazing with our 13-month-old child. We needed help pretty last minute because daycare was unavailable, and she really came through for us at a time when we both needed to work from home. She was warm, patient, easy to talk to, and great with our child right away. She kept them entertained, helped with meals and the usual routine, and just made the whole day a lot less stressful for us. It was such a relief being able to focus on work and know our child was happy and being well taken care of. We’d absolutely have Antonella help us again and would definitely recommend her to other parents.”
Hi! My name is Kamea, I graduated from UCLA with honors. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I have experience mentoring and caring for children of different ages through my work with AmeriCorps and Young Storytellers, as well as babysitting toddlers during college. I worked closely with high school students as an academic mentor, tutor, and support resource, and I currently help elementary school students build confidence through creative storytelling and writing. I am patient, dependable, organized, and very family-oriented. I also love animals and have a Yorkipoo and two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and loved ones. I recently worked in marketing for The Walt Disney Company before being impacted by company-wide layoffs, and I am currently looking for opportunities where I can help support families in meaningful ways. I would love the opportunity to assist your family however I can!
“Kamea is an incredible young woman: kind, reliable, punctual and responsive. I’ve had her watch my elderly in the past he had many complications that required precise care and affection that she was amply able to provide. Anytime I had a concern I could reach out to her and receive a prompt response. She is incredible and I do recommend 11/10”
Hello! My name is Emily, and I am a caring, dependable, and energetic childcare professional with over 3 years of experience working with children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. As a preschool teacher, I have developed strong skills in creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where children can learn, grow, and feel supported. I am passionate about helping children reach developmental milestones through play-based learning, creative activities, outdoor exploration, reading, and positive encouragement. My classroom experience has taught me patience, organization, communication, and the ability to manage routines while meeting each child’s individual needs. Families describe me as trustworthy, responsible, and easy to communicate with. I understand the importance of building strong relationships with both children and parents, and I strive to provide reliable care that gives families peace of mind. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with homework help, school pick-ups and drop-offs, meal preparation, light housekeeping related to the children, and pet care. I love creating fun, meaningful experiences that help children feel confident, happy, and cared for. I am currently seeking a position where I can become a positive, supportive part of a family’s daily life.
“Emily was reliable and let me know every step taken. Was on time and oh so so sweet. My son's therapist who was there as well told me Emily was a great sitter! I'm giving her 5 HUGE stars! Thank you so much for your help. :D”
Hi! My name is Bella, and I’m 21 years old. I’ve grown up in the Bay Area my whole life, but I’ll be moving down to Monrovia in Los Angeles the last weekend of October so I would be able to start November 1st! I have over 4.5 years of childcare and animal-care experience, working with children ranging from 3 months to 13 years old. I’ve also been working as a nanny for almost a year now, caring for a 7-year-old. My responsibilities include driving, keeping the child engaged through activities like sports, arts and crafts, and Legos, as well as helping with housekeeping and caring for animals. I also babysit on the weekend for various families around my area usually with kids 4yrs and under! I genuinely love working with children because they have such a sweet, genuine energy. I really value being a consistent, dependable, and positive presence in a child’s life. I believe having someone they can trust, feel comfortable with, and look forward to spending time with is incredibly important. I have also had experience being a caregiver for 6 months plus helping out with my grandfather with dementia and bipolar disorder. I’m excited to continue doing what I love and hopefully find a wonderful family in the Monrovia/Los Angeles area!

"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."
Michelle R., mom of two
"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
Heather B., mom of two
