Kayley 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in La Crescenta, CA

Hi there! My name is Kayley and I recently graduated from San Francisco State University with a Major in Communications and a Minor in Africana Studies. During that time I took some Child Development courses and discovered how much there is to learn from kids. I have experience working with kids at the Boys and Girls Club in San Francisco and also helping out my aunts with all my little cousins. I love to babysit not only because it is empowering, and teaches me to play and be patient, but also because I get to help children, show them safe ways to have fun and express themselves, and ultimately help create a community filled with healthy connections. Something about me is that I love to sing, read, design, dance, and act! I have a passion for film and love to entertain! I am also interested in youth organizing and social justice.

“Kayley was a great after school Sitter for our daughter, who was then 5 to 7 years old. We were so fortunate to have her during some of the toughest months in the pandemic very early on. During that time she would come to our house and spend anywhere from 3 to 5 hours with our daughter teaching her her lessons. Kate, Kayley is responsible attentive, and our daughter would have a really great time with her.”

Booked by 1 family in La Crescenta, CA

My services include childcare, pet care, household services, and running errands. I am very comfortable providing homework help, cooking and baking anything, driving kids to and from school or extracurriculars, and generally supervising activities (i.e. swimming, playing, etc.). I am also experienced in caring for cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes in different settings. I am very comfortable with any activities required (feeding, walking, playing, etc.). I graduated from UCLA with a degree in Cognitive Science & Computing. I am a certified Yoga Instructor who brings empathy and warmth to any environment and loves to get to know people. I am highly organized, adaptable, reliable, am a strong communicator, and am fluent in Spanish. I am looking forward to getting to know you, your kids, your pets, and your household needs!

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with our nanny, Sofia, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She is incredibly reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. From day one, she built a strong bond with my son and created a safe, nurturing, and fun environment. She consistently went above and beyond—whether it was helping with routines, engaging in educational activities, or simply bringing a positive and calming presence into our home. Her professionalism and warm personality made a huge difference for our family. Any family would be lucky to have her. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and exceptional nanny! Thanks.”

Irene $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi - my name is Irene and I hold two Bachelor’s degrees from UCLA and a Master’s from USC. I was born and raised in Athens, Greece and I am bilingual in English and Greek. I’ve spent years taking care of younger cousins and family friends’ kids, ranging from school-age through teens. I’m CPR certified and take safety seriously. Since I have a strong academic background, I’m especially comfortable helping with homework and tutoring, whether it’s a tricky math assignment or just staying on top of schoolwork. I’m also pet friendly and happy to work with families who have animals in the home.

Marla $22 per hour for 1 child

With more than 30 years of babysitting and childcare experience, I've had the privilege of caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. Families describe me as dependable, patient, nurturing, and attentive. I understand that every child is unique, and I take pride in creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and supported. Whether helping with homework, planning fun activities, preparing meals, maintaining routines, or providing loving care for infants, I bring a calm, responsible, and professional approach to every family I work with. My goal is to give parents peace of mind knowing their children are in caring and capable hands. I value open communication, punctuality, and building lasting relationships with families. If you're looking for an experienced caregiver who genuinely enjoys helping children learn, grow, and thrive, I would love the opportunity to work with your family. Marla

"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."
