Sabrina 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hihii! I’m Sabrina, I graduated from UCLA and now work full-time at the university. I’ve always been someone who takes initiative and works hard, which definitely shows in the way I care for kids. I helped raise my younger brother and have been a big part of my 7 year old nephew’s life since he was born. Coming from a big family, I’ve always had a caregiving role. I have five siblings, so I know how to manage different needs and personalities at once. I also know how to cook and would often prepare meals for everyone, which taught me how to stay organized and patient, especially during busy moments. While I was in college, I worked as a tutor and also spent time as a teacher assistant in a sixth-grade classroom, helping students with both schoolwork and classroom routines. I’m always happy to help with homework or create learning moments during play. Outside of work, I love being outdoors, going on walks, and spending time in green spaces. I’m also a big fan of cafes, matcha, cute characters (sanrio & rilakkuma), and exploring new spots around the city. I bring that same calm and creative energy when babysitting, and I always try to keep kids engaged with fun activities and time outside. I’m dependable, caring, and genuinely love spending time with kids. If you’re looking for someone who’s thoughtful, hands-on, and experienced, I’d love to help out.

“Sabrina has been such a huge part of our lives. She’s been watching my son since he was 4 and now he’s 9 and he still gets so excited whenever he finds out she’s coming over. That alone says so much about the kind of person she is. They spend their time dancing, drawing, playing games, laughing, and she always makes sure he’s fed and happy. She treats him with so much love, patience and care. It gives me so much peace of mind whenever I’m away. She also handles bedtime and morning routines like a pro and keeps me updated if anything comes up. As a mom there’s nothing more reassuring than knowing your child is safe, loved, and happy. We absolutely adore her and I can’t recommend her enough!”

Hi! My name is Xochitl, but I go by Flower. I’m a current senior at UC Riverside majoring in Early Childhood Education. I offer childcare, senior care, and pet care, with most of my experience and passion being in childcare. I’ve been working with children since I was 16 and have experience caring for children of all ages, especially infants. My experience includes UrbanSitter, internships, working at an early childhood center, and working as an ABA with children on the autism spectrum. These experiences have helped me develop strong childcare skills. I am comfortable working with different ages, routines, and needs. I’m also available for school pickups and drop-offs, in-home services, and schedule changes when needed. I am CPR certified and can provide references upon request. I’m dependable, caring, and passionate about working with children, and I’d love the opportunity to help your family! :)

Jasmine $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi Moms! My name is Jasmine, and I bring 5 years of experience working with children ages 3months to 6years old and teenagers. I truly love helping little ones grow, learn, and feel safe. A little about me: I'm patient, dependable, nurturing, engaging, and creative.

Some of my responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I'm also calm under pressure and adaptable to each child's unique personality and needs. Languages: I speak both English and Spanish fluently, and I love incorporating language learning into play when appropriate. Certifications: I'm not currently CPR/First Aid certified, but I'm willing to complete certification as needed.

Hi families! My name is Maria, and I am a dedicated and passionate caregiver with over 10 years of professional experience supporting children of all ages, from infants to 17-year-olds. I pride myself on being deeply attentive, detail-oriented, and safety-conscious while creating a lively and nurturing environment. I love keeping kids engaged through interactive play, reading together, and preparing healthy, homemade meals. Beyond my extensive general childcare background, I also bring valuable personal and hands-on experience caring for individuals with special needs. Growing up with a sister on the autism spectrum has equipped me with a unique understanding, patience, and empathy for children with diverse developmental abilities. At the core of my caregiving philosophy is compassion. I believe in leading with an open heart and treating every child entrusted to my care as if they were my own. Whether your little ones need help with homework, an energetic play partner, or specialized care, I am here to provide a safe, joyful, and supportive space for them to thrive. I look forward to meeting 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."
