Booked by 78 families in Hawthorne, CA

Hi! I'm Destiny! I've been babysitting and nannying for 11 years and have experience with overnights, full-time and part-time care, traveling, nanny pods, occasional babysitting, and watching over multiples (twins/ triplets) :) I have experience caring for all ages, from newborns to 15 years old, with the majority of my experience focused on newborns through 6-year-olds. This past year, I worked as a long-term Kindergarten substitute, and I'm currently working toward my teaching credential and Master's in Education. I enjoy working with children and getting to know their little personalities while building genuine, trusting connections. I'm patient, attentive, reliable, and responsible, while still being energetic and engaging. I love spending time outdoors, doing crafts, visiting museums, going on bike rides, and creating opportunities for kids to learn, have fun and just be kids. There’s no better feeling than hearing “you’re the best babysitter ever.” Looking forward to connecting with your family!

“Destiny immediately and naturally connected with all 3 of my kids ages 8-3, boys and girls. She jumped right in helping out with everything they needed while also being super fun with them. Our 8 yr old girl was sad when she was leaving and asked when she’d be back! Highly recommend ”

Booked by 23 families in Hawthorne, CA

Hello, my name is Marelin. I'm 28 years old. I am loving and caring with kids. I have taken care of children up until the age of 15. I am reliable, trustworthy and honest. Will do any tasks that are given, my rules are the same rules you have at your house. Pets are okay. I also have my own transportation. Please let me know so we can schedule an interview! I can provide references if needed. Thank you.

“Marelin has been our daytime sitter since December 2025, and we're so sad to be losing her only because our family is moving out of LA in November 2026. She's been wonderful. She's reliable, flexible with hours, and always willing to work around our schedule. She’s smart and a quick learner. She picks up house rules and instructions right away. We always feel completely comfortable leaving her alone with our baby. She's endlessly patient during feedings, sings to our daughter, and always gets her down for naps quickly. She spends real time playing with and reading to our baby, who absolutely adores her. She's also happy to help with light housecleaning and errands. Highly recommend Marelin to any family looking for a trustworthy, loving caregiver”

Booked by 36 families in Hawthorne, CA

👋 Hi there!! My name is Alejandra and I’ve provided nanny services to families for 10+ years (including HP families) I have been taking care of newborns, toddlers and older kids as well (I can provide references) and kids with special needs. Throughout my experiences of watching/raising children, I’ve driven them to/from school, took them to private classes, played with them and made sure that they are happy, healthy, and safe always! Assisted with night routine, provided cooking for the kids and help with light tied up after the kids (I don’t mind to do light tied up in general and help with light cooking but I don’t do housekeeping chores) I’m CPR and First Aid certified. I speak Spanish and English, I can speak some Portuguese and Italian. I’ve been taking some courses (because I always like to learn new things and I find them helpful) including: Nutrition and cooking for kids, Foundation of Positive Psychology Specialization, Everyday Parenting. I love to do outdoor activities and workout in my free time, reading, traveling and watch movies! I also have experience watching dogs, including walking, feeding, playtime, and potty time. I absolutely love both kids and animals and would love to be able to work with your family!

"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."
