Booked by 2 families in La Mirada, CA

My name is Nyla and I have been caregiving for almost 25 years. I started babysitting as a young adult with family members and evolved into caretaking for infants, young children, seniors and even pets. I am trustworthy, responsible, attentive. I take pride in being a positive role model focused in child development. I am committed to working closely with families to provide them with the level of care that they need.

Booked by 13 families in La Mirada, CA

Hello! My name is Aylin. I'm a college student attending CSLB online and I’m majoring in child development. I currently work as a campus assistant for an elementary school. I'm really interested in babysitting for you. I'm a reliable, careful, friendly, and responsible person. I'm fully vaccinated. I'm CPR and First Aid certified. If needed I can cook and clean. A little bit about me is that I love working with kids due to me babysitting since I was 14 for neighbors, family members and my mom's day care center. I've babysat from new borns to nine year olds. This sparked my interest for becoming a teacher. I like being a babysitter because it gives the flexibility to work and still be in school.

"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."
