My name is Ana, and I am a caring, responsible grandmother of five wonderful school-aged grandchildren whom I have been actively caring for over the years. I hold a degree as a bilingual secretary, and while my professional background began in administrative work, my true passion has always been in helping others—especially through caregiving. With years of hands-on experience supporting and nurturing children, I bring patience, empathy, and strong organizational skills to every task. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, dependable, and attentive to individual needs. I am excited for the opportunity to provide warm, reliable care and companionship to those who may need extra support in their daily lives.

Booked by 1 family in Lawndale, CA

Hi families! My name is Maria, and I am a dedicated and passionate caregiver with over 10 years of professional experience supporting children of all ages, from infants to 17-year-olds. I pride myself on being deeply attentive, detail-oriented, and safety-conscious while creating a lively and nurturing environment. I love keeping kids engaged through interactive play, reading together, and preparing healthy, homemade meals. Beyond my extensive general childcare background, I also bring valuable personal and hands-on experience caring for individuals with special needs. Growing up with a sister on the autism spectrum has equipped me with a unique understanding, patience, and empathy for children with diverse developmental abilities. At the core of my caregiving philosophy is compassion. I believe in leading with an open heart and treating every child entrusted to my care as if they were my own. Whether your little ones need help with homework, an energetic play partner, or specialized care, I am here to provide a safe, joyful, and supportive space for them to thrive. I look forward to meeting your family!

"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."
