Allison $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m Allison, a compassionate, optimistic, intuitive being with over five years of experience caring for little ones. While I've been familiar with children of all ages, I am most experienced with those between 18 months to ten years old. I am led by a deep sense of love and reverence for all beings and a desire to make everyone around me feel truly seen. I enjoy fostering environments where children feel respected, safe, and nurtured in their curiosity and unique modes of expression. One of my greatest gifts is my ability to handle stress with grace and positivity, providing a backdrop of emotional regulation for children to learn to navigate their ever-changing emotional highs and lows. I regard all souls to be of equal immeasurable value, therefore I see children as human beings first and foremost. As with adults, I believe their trust and respect must be earned, not demanded. This isn’t to say I’m a pushover. Contrarily, I have a direct manner and establish clear, healthy boundaries. In addition to caring for children, I have experience as a yoga instructor and a recreational dancer. (A long-term professional goal of mine is to work in Dance/Movement based therapy, therefore I value the role of movement in the development and holistic well-being of our little ones). I have two years of experience working as an ESL-tutor and can help kids work towards their academic goals. With my B.A. degree in Creative Writing from Bard College, I love encouraging children to read, watch, listen, analyze, and create their own stories, whether it be through watching movies, dressing up, or playing improv games. Additionally, I enjoy cooking, crafting, decorating, and all the small efforts that make everyday moments feel just a little more special. I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes. While I don’t have experience caring for elderly, I very much enjoy the company of elders and would consider an opportunity to work with them to be a great privilege. Located in Venice. Very flexible hours. Access to reliable transportation.

Penina $31 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a former preschool teacher with a degree in Early Childhood Education, and I absolutely love working with kids. From teaching curious preschoolers to supporting 5th graders, I’ve had the joy of working with all ages — infants through teens. I bring lots of patience, creativity, and energy, whether that’s helping with homework, playing outside, or creating fun activities. Families tell me I’m reliable, nurturing, and easy to connect with, and I always aim to create a safe, positive space where kids can thrive.

Daniel $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi y'all! My name is Daniel, and I am a 23-year-old recent graduate. I graduated in December 2024 from the University of Northern Colorado with a B.S. in Mathematics, with an emphasis in Middle School Education. A native Coloradan, I relocated to Los Angeles in January of this year and moved in with my long-term girlfriend, who was attending SCA at USC (she graduated this spring semester, yay!). My life and professional experiences have given me the tools and knowledge necessary to provide childcare and household services. I am also open to providing other services. I own (2022 Corolla) and am able to operate a car. I am also great with technology, speak fluent Spanish, and am even willing to offer math tutoring. More info about me below :) As I mentioned earlier, my degree is in middle school math education. Throughout my university program, I completed clinical practices within middle school classrooms and one high school classroom. In the fall semester of 2024, I completed my student-teaching practice, which I credit as my most impactful learning experience in terms of classroom management, pedagogy, and generally aiding kids. I received my initial teaching licensure from the state of Colorado. In Los Angeles, I have done limited substitute work after a lengthy process to transfer my credentials. Although limited in work, I have had the opportunity to work with younger students as I have substituted for first-grade classes and an after-school program that served first- and second-graders. Aside from my teaching experience, I am also a HUGE 'girl-uncle'. I have four nieces and 2 nephews in total, but the youngest are my three nieces. The 11 y/o I babysat weekly during summers in middle and high school when she was a toddler and kid. During the school year, I would watch her after school for a couple of hours before my brother could pick her up after work. The next youngest girls, 4 y/o and 1.5 y/o, I have also babysat in some capacity, but less as I was in college and I have since moved out of state.

"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."
