Booked by 28 families in La Jolla, CA

Hello! My name is Kinga, and I’m an experienced and dependable babysitter based in La Jolla, San Diego. I’ve spent the last eleven years caring for children of all ages-from infants to elementary school-and I truly love what I do. Along with my nannying background, I’ve also tutored kindergarten through second grade, which has given me a strong foundation in early learning and communication. I have a genuine passion for supporting children with special needs. For the past three years, I’ve worked closely with a 23-year-old with Phelan-McDermid Syndrome, serving as his eyes and ears and assisting with daily living, communication, and safety. This experience has taught me patience, creativity, and how to build trust with individuals who need a little extra support. It’s also a big part of why I’m currently studying social work-I’m committed to making a meaningful difference in people’s lives. Families describe me as calm, caring, and intuitive. I enjoy spending time outdoors, crafting, and finding ways to keep kids engaged. I’m reliable, communicative, and focused on creating a safe and positive environment for every child I work with. I am up to date with my vaccines and happy to provide references. I look forward to hearing from you!

“Kinga was amazing with my 3 year old autistic son. She gave me updates through her time with him and ensured that he got the best care and attention. Thank you, Kinga!”

Hi dear families, My name is Cecilia, I’m 31 years old. I’m a part-time babysitter who loves play and learn with children. With 7 years of experience caring for wonderful children of all ages, including infants and toddlers. I am responsible, organized, and kind. I prioritize safety and am also creative with crafts and Montessori activities to help children play and grow through their senses. I love to help my kids to communicate with sign language and if the parents prefer also I love to teach them Spanish words. I am an excellent driver, have completed various childcare courses and training including CPR. I have a couple of families who would be more than happy to share their experience. I look forward to hearing from you. Ceci Monroy

“Ceci was with our family for nearly two years, caring for our son until he started school at 2 years old. The love and patience she showed him every day meant everything to us. She is incredibly attentive and nurturing, always tuned into his needs, and she made his days so full of joy. She came up with the sweetest art projects and playful learning activities that supported his milestones and early education in such a natural, thoughtful way. We always felt complete peace of mind knowing he was safe, happy, and deeply cared for in her presence. We’ll forever be grateful for the warmth, stability, and love she gave him during such a special chapter of his childhood. She has our full trust and we would recommend her to anyone without hesitation.”

"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."
