Booked by 1 family in Cerritos, CA

Hi, I’m Brenda! I’ve spent the last 8 years working with kids in classroom settings, supporting both general education and special education students ages 5–16. I hold a Special Education teaching credential and have 4 years of experience as a special education teacher for 2nd, 3rd, and 9th grades. I have also worked as a nanny and tutor with children ages 1- 19years old. Working closely with children of different abilities has taught me patience, creativity, and how to meet kids where they are. I offer babysitting, tutoring, house sitting, cooking, pet sitting, and elderly care. I genuinely love spending time with children—whether that’s helping with homework, baking together, heading to the park or museum, or cheering them on at sports practice. I also enjoy swimming, running, and staying active, which helps me keep up with energetic kids. I’m reliable, caring, and hands-on, and I always aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and parents feel confident.

“Brenda was beyond expectations in helping with rides, household tasks and cooking. Dependable, kind and a easy to work with. Would definitely recommend!”

Vianna $23 per hour for 1 child

I have experience caring for children of all ages, from babies to teenagers, including caring for multiple children at once. I’m comfortable helping with homework, meals, activities, driving, bedtime routines, and longer babysitting shifts, including evenings and late nights. I recently obtained my master’s degree, and during my graduate training I worked with children and families through psychosocial counseling and completed coursework in child psychology. I also have experience caring for neurodivergent children and children with more complex medical needs. These experiences have emphasized the importance of patience, flexibility, and attentiveness when caregiving. As well as the fact that every child may communicate, learn, or need support in different ways. I’d describe myself as easygoing, dependable, and caring. I want kids to feel comfortable and have fun with me, while still respecting the routines, boundaries, and expectations parents have for their home. I take safety seriously, communicate openly with families, and try to be someone both parents and kids can feel comfortable relying on.

"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."
