Dynasty $21 per hour for 1 child

I’m currently in college studying English Literature and children development. I’ll be obtaining my teacher’s credentials. Not only am I going to school to teach and understand the development of a child, I’ve grown up being the youngest in a family of 13. I’ve babysat my sibling’s kids all the time, and it’s helped me a lot with my education. I grew up with 2 dogs and 1 cat, so I have a bit experience taking care of pets as well. A little about me, I love reading, writing poetry, crocheting and dancing! I’m very easy going and love talking and meeting new people. I’m also reliable ;) I hope to become a reoccurring nanny!

Booked by 1 family in La Palma, CA

Hi! I'm Mia, a patient, attentive, caring, and dependable person with reliable transportation. I’m offering child care, pet care, senior services, and household services! I have experience babysitting younger children in my family as young as 10 months old. I truly enjoy keeping kids engaged, safe, and happy while also following their routine. I have lots of experience cooking for family as well and meal prepping. I also love animals! I have dog-sat plenty of times, and l'm a dog owner myself of 2 bichon poos, though I am open to any size of animal. I have experience of owning a cat as well. A little fun fact about me is I was a dancer for 4 years, so a lot of my leadership skills and responsibility comes from my experience being in dance. I am a very reliable person including when it comes to being able to run errands and provide transportation. You can count on me ! :)

“Mia was professional, courteous, dependable and respectful. She handled every task with patience and with a positive attitude. My child felt supported and comfortable around her.”

I am a retired teacher from LAUSD. I enjoy providing loving care to children. I’m a dependable person who will give 100 % to anything I do. I have been taking care of children since I was 10. I was a foster parent for 15 years also. I also tutor all academic subjects. I also have a Masters in Education. I was with my second family for 3 years. They moved to Texas, and I still keep in contact with them. In my spare time I write poetry and enjoy painting murals for elementary schools.

Felicia 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Felicia, I work as a preschool teacher in a Montessori classroom and spend my days with kids ages one to five. I'm CPR and First Aid certified and currently finishing a psychology degree. I have multiple years of experience in early childhood education and hospital bedside care with children ages 0-17. I'm comfortable with all ages, along with meals, naps, potty training, outdoor and art play. Happy to hear about your family and what you need!

“I highly recommend Felicia for any babysitting or childcare role. She has cared for our two boys (ages 10 months and 3 years) and has proven to be incredibly reliable, professional, and trustworthy. Juggling the needs of an infant and a toddler is no easy task, but Felicia does so with ease and patience. She is fantastic at keeping our 3-year-old safely entertained while seamlessly managing the routine and care for our 10-month-old. She is punctual, attentive, and wonderful with kids. I would gladly hire her again and recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for top-tier childcare.”

Leilani $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Leilani. I am currently finishing school to become a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN), and in the meantime, I am working as a nanny. I have several years of experience caring for children, including my cousins and siblings. I genuinely love working with kids and find it to be a joyful and rewarding experience. I'm patient, responsible, and attentive, and I always strive to create a safe and fun environment for the children in my care. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, visiting them whenever | can. I also love painting, going to the park or the beach, and reading. These hobbies help me stay creative and active, which I like to bring into my work with children as well. I hope to connect with a family soon and would love the opportunity to support and care for your children.

"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."
