Booked by 1 family in Laguna Beach, CA

Hi! My name is Sheyda, and I’m based in Orange County. I offer reliable and caring babysitting services, and I truly enjoy working with children of all ages. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I’m patient, responsible, and love creating a fun and safe environment—whether that’s helping with homework, doing crafts, playing games, or keeping a consistent routine. I always try to make sure kids feel comfortable and happy while in my care. I can also help with light household tasks such as meal prep, tidying up, and organizing. If needed, I’m happy to assist with school pick-ups, activities, or errands. I take safety very seriously and always make sure children are supervised and well cared for. I’m dependable, easy to communicate with, and flexible with scheduling. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide a positive, trustworthy babysitting experience!

$29 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am a recent college graduate with a degree in Psychological Science and a minor in Legal Studies. I was raised between Laguna Beach and Romania and spent the past four years living in Rome, Italy, pursuing my education. I have been fortunate to travel extensively, which has given me a love for experiencing different cultures, trying new things, and bringing a little curiosity, culture, and adventure into everyday life. I am bilingual in Romanian and have a good understanding of Spanish and Italian. I have cared for children ranging from 1–11 years old and genuinely love being around kids. I am active, outdoorsy, very tidy, and love cooking healthy (but actually delicious!) meals. I’m also someone who prefers real-life play, creativity, and getting outside over screens. I would love to be someone your family feels comfortable and confident having around your little ones!

“Nathalie babysat my now 1-year-old, and we absolutely loved having her! She is so sweet, caring, and patient with kids, and you can tell she genuinely enjoys being around them. She was always attentive and made me feel completely comfortable leaving my baby. Nathalie is reliable, responsible, and just a really kind person. I would definitely recommend her to any family looking for a great babysitter!”

Booked by 2 families in Laguna Beach, CA

My background includes lifelong, hands-on caregiving experience. I started babysitting at age 13 and helped raise my younger siblings, who are now teenagers. Through this, I’ve developed a unique relationship with kids—they feel safe with me, and also find me fun and engaging. I’m playful, know how to make kids laugh, and keep them entertained, while also providing structure, support, and emotional safety. I recently lived with my 2- and 4-year-old nieces, so I’m very comfortable with toddlers, routines, and day-to-day childcare needs. I’m patient, attentive, and naturally nurturing, and children tend to connect with me easily. I also have strong experience with pets and household support. I have a 2-year-old mini dachshund who is the center of attention. Overall, I’m dependable, warm, and genuinely enjoy caring for children, pets, and families, creating an environment where everyone feels supported and safe. I also value communication.

Rachelle 2 reviews
$21 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Rachelle! I offer dependable, engaging childcare and pet care with a strong mix of personal and professional experience. I’ve cared for children of all ages, including hands-on experience with my 11 nieces and nephews (ages 1–15). I currently provide ongoing care for a 13-year-old, including overnight stays when needed, so I’m comfortable with both daytime routines and nighttime responsibilities. My background includes a Bachelor’s in Business Administration and a Master’s in Criminal Justice focused on juvenile development, along with 14 years of service in the U.S. Navy. This has shaped my reliability, structure, and ability to connect with and mentor kids of all ages. I also have training through therapy school, which helps me communicate effectively with children and adolescents. I love incorporating creativity, sports, and music into my time with kids. I grew up playing trumpet, baseball, and softball, and enjoy keeping children active and engaged. In addition to childcare, I have over 25 years of experience caring for pets, including administering medication and supporting animals with special needs. I’m happy to help with occasional or part-time care, including overnights, and always aim to create a safe, supportive, and fun environment for your family.

“After being on UrbanSitter and scouring thru profiles and messaging with several care providers - Rachelle stood out among the pack. Her bio was comprehensive and her experience won me over immediately. Experience in the military with focus on leadership, experience with kids and nephews and nieces, and an obvious passion to make a positive impact. When my whole family met Rachelle for an interview to see if it was the right fit - Rachelle nailed that interaction just by being herself. We hired Rachelle multiple times when needing help with Jase while we traveled. She was prompt, amazing with Jase, and always a delight to work with. Jase always had positive reviews about Rachelle during and after interactions with her. I would recommend Rachelle to other parents. Jase was a teen when we brought Rachelle in - and we couldn’t have been happier!”

"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."
