Booked by 19 families in La Crescenta, CA

Hi! My name is Selene and I’m a University of Berkeley, California graduate with a B.A. in psychology. I started sitting when I was 13 and supported families in my neighborhood with their kids. In college, I worked for a church’s childcare group (ages 4 months-4 years) and tutored children in Spanish and math. I have loads of experience with school aged children (3-10). My child related job experience includes working in a domestic violence shelter for mothers and children of all different ages. We tutored, mentored, and provided childcare in the shelter using a non violent empowerment model. I also worked with elementary school children and teenagers working as an after school aid at non profit that provides services to children in the mission. I’ve had a few long term tutoring and sitting jobs and am currently looking to support a few families at a need basis! I like to co create activities with the children im caring for that are developmentally appropriate. For example, I love to use textured toys and sensory activities for infants to improve dexterity and color recognition and for children 4-8, I love to play games that help them move and use their imagination. (Dance party anyone?) I would describe my baby sitting style as engaged, imaginative and collaborative.

Hi! My name is Nathany, and I’m originally from Brazil. I’ve been working as a nanny and babysitter in Los Angeles, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and supporting families. I have experience caring for children of different ages, from babies and toddlers to school age kids. I’m comfortable with playtime, meals, diaper changes, bedtime routines, and keeping kids engaged with fun and creative activities. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks related to the children. Families describe me as patient, responsible, organized, and dependable. I understand how important it’s to trust the person caring for your children, and I always do my best to create a safe, caring, and positive environment. I’m looking for a long-term family, but I’m also available for occasional babysitting. I look forward to meeting new families and becoming someone both parents and kids feel comfortable with!

“Very professional, was handling a one year old that haven’t had a babysitter before really well. ”

"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."
