Marta $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Marta. I first came to Orange County from Europe (Poland) as an au pair, and caring for kids has remained part of my life ever since, from family and friends’ children to working with kids, teenagers and students in Los Angeles. I genuinely enjoy young people. I’m curious about what interests them, love encouraging their creativity and confidence, and I’m equally comfortable being playful or providing structure when they need it. I recently moved back to Orange County and would love to connect with a few local families who want someone mature, dependable, warm and actually engaged with their kids. I also happen to be a great cook, love art, culture and exploring the world, and speak both English and Polish. Most importantly, I want kids to feel safe, comfortable and happy being themselves around me.

Booked by 1 family in Garden Grove, CA

Hi! My name is Sheyda, and I’m based in Orange County. I offer reliable and caring babysitting services, and I truly enjoy working with children of all ages. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I’m patient, responsible, and love creating a fun and safe environment—whether that’s helping with homework, doing crafts, playing games, or keeping a consistent routine. I always try to make sure kids feel comfortable and happy while in my care. I can also help with light household tasks such as meal prep, tidying up, and organizing. If needed, I’m happy to assist with school pick-ups, activities, or errands. I take safety very seriously and always make sure children are supervised and well cared for. I’m dependable, easy to communicate with, and flexible with scheduling. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide a positive, trustworthy babysitting experience!

"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."
