Booked by 2 families in Los Alamitos, CA

Hi! My name is Andrea, and I have worked with kids for a little over 6 years now. I started babysitting kids in my family and realized that I loved being a positive change in a child's life. I truly found a passion for caring for them, playing and interacting with them, making their meals, and assisting them with school assignments. Since 2021, I've been consistently working as a part-time nanny for different families, and as of 2022, I've been an after-school program teacher for kindergartners all the way to fifth graders. I love interacting with kids of all different ages and making their days brighter as much as they make mine. I am also aware of the different schedules that I get handed from different families and am very well with carefully follow parental instructions regarding schedules, chores, discipline, and free time. I'm looking forward to meeting new families and to growing great connections.

“Andrea was amazing and sweet. Helped with house stuff and was great with my 3 month old. Would hire her again! ”

Cosette $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Cosette :) I’m a student at CSULB and I only have classes Monday and Wednesday, so I have a lot of availability the rest of the week. I’m originally from Temecula and I’m looking for a job while I’m in college. I’m in a sorority and involved in community service, so I’m very responsible, dependable, and used to being committed to a schedule. I used to be a nanny for a family with three kids, and I also worked as a head coach at an afterschool elementary program, so I’m great with keeping kids active, engaged, and still on routine. I’m patient, fun, and very safety-focused. I can help with anything! Pickups, homework, meals/snacks, activities, bedtime routines, light housekeeping, laundry, organizing, and errands. I also have 3 puppies that I love spending time with, so I’m super pet-friendly!

Booked by 1 family in Los Alamitos, CA

I am an elementary school teacher off for the summer and an expert with kids and pets. I am a mom of two, ages 19 and 16. My son goes to UC Riverside and my daughter is a sophomore. I am currently a 2nd grade teacher but I have experience with all kids. I have two rabbits at my home that are free range in the kitchen so I know how to take care of very delicate animals.

Camille $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am a compassionate 24-year-old registered nurse with 2 years of experience working with postpartum moms and newborns at Miller Children's and Women's Hospital in Long Beach. While I absolutely adored my job, I recently left working at the hospital due to stress and being overworked, and being unable to leave the night shift. In my time off from working as a nurse, I would love to use my knowledge and skills to help out families! Along with postpartum nursing, I have around 3 years of experience babysitting, from ages 4 months to 12 years old. I am hardworking, organized, fun, honest, and clean. I have always received amazing reviews from new mamas at the hospital about how attentive and caring I am with them and their newborns, and I intend to carry that energy into the world of babysitting as well.

"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."
