Booked by 2 families in La Crescenta, CA

Hi, I'm Malia! I am 30 years old and have been working in childcare since 2011. I spent the last 3 years as a nanny for a family caring for the children from 4 months-3 years old. Before that, I spent 5 years working as a substitute teacher at an early childhood education center where I worked with infants through Pre-K classes. I graduated from Portland State University in 2019. I love to go on walks, explore parks & neighborhoods, dance, sing, play guitar, read, and bake. Creativity and mindfulness are very important to me. I am hoping to share my care and optimism with your children and whole family. I am currently available for occasional sitting as well as flexible week to week schedules.

Hi! I’m a law student who also works full-time in finance. I’m looking for occasional evening or weekend babysitting jobs because I truly love and miss being around kids. I’m responsible, punctual, patient, and caring — always making sure children feel safe, supported, and have fun. Parents can count on me to be reliable, organized, and attentive to detail.

Booked by 7 families in La Crescenta, CA

Hello, my name is Alia. I am currently in graduate school in Pasadena. I have had extensive babysitting experience for the past 11 years. I’ve babysat children as young as 6 months & in groups as large as 12. I taught ice skating lessons to preschool aged kids and worked as a camp counselor for ages 10-14. I’ve participated in a number of other volunteer organizations tutoring kids of all ages. I absolutely love working with kids and teenagers and hope to be a pediatrician in the future! When I’m not making forts and fairy houses while babysitting, or rock climbing with my 12 & 13 year old cousins, I may be cooking a new dish or traveling to a new country. I look forward to meeting new families!

“Alia was absolutely amazing with our son Felix who is one, would definitely have her over again!!!”

Booked by 1 family in La Crescenta, CA

Hello I’m glad you’re here! My name is Alexandra. I am 30 years old and a devoted mother and wife. I am fluent in English and Spanish. I began caring for children at the age of 18 and have 7 years of experience outside of my own children I care for. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers and also young children ages 3-6 years old. I am completing my CPR & first aid certification so this can be provided to help ease your mind that your family is safe. I previously worked as a behavioral technician. I have experience working with children with ASD. Here is where I grew my love for the field of psychology and early childhood development. I am a full time mom & student. I attend school in the evenings. I would love to help families get back to things they love doing whether that be self-care, date nights or simply getting things done. You can also be returning to work or working from home. It can be very challenging to manage it all, as a mother / parent I salute you for taking the leap and getting the help you need ! It truly takes a village and I’d be honored to help. I love dogs own two myself ( corgi & pittie ) However I’m great overall with pets no allergies that I’m aware of! Can help feed them if necessary. Some of my hobbies include: reading, writing, arts & crafts and photography! I’m also great at cleaning & organizing, would love to help your family, including light tidying around the house. My focus when working with littles and children is to build that trust and relationship with them so I can help them grow and learn. From fine motor skills, to cognitive development. We will play together, sing dance and learn along the way. All of this can be tailored to your personal needs as a family. I have experience with a wide variety of children and individuals. Potty training ? Diapering ? Nothing new ! No judgment I’m here to help. What may work for your family, may not work for others. Each care can be individualized. Not all children are the same, Have a routine ? Im great at adapting to your routine and schedule. I look forward to getting to know you and your family. Thank you for taking a moment to learn a little about me. I’ll see you all very soon !

“Alexandra was very professional, she came and took the time to ask about each of my kids so she knows how to talk to each. Met each of my kids needs and was flexible with schedule, She was able to accommodate. Was able to built trust with my kids within minutes and that felt reassuring to me that they were in great hands. I have worked with Alexandra a few times and will continue to hire her when needed.”

"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."
