Booked by 19 families in Manhattan Beach, CA

Hi! My name is Selene and I’m a University of Berkeley, California graduate with a B.A. in psychology. I started sitting when I was 13 and supported families in my neighborhood with their kids. In college, I worked for a church’s childcare group (ages 4 months-4 years) and tutored children in Spanish and math. I have loads of experience with school aged children (3-10). My child related job experience includes working in a domestic violence shelter for mothers and children of all different ages. We tutored, mentored, and provided childcare in the shelter using a non violent empowerment model. I also worked with elementary school children and teenagers working as an after school aid at non profit that provides services to children in the mission. I’ve had a few long term tutoring and sitting jobs and am currently looking to support a few families at a need basis! I like to co create activities with the children im caring for that are developmentally appropriate. For example, I love to use textured toys and sensory activities for infants to improve dexterity and color recognition and for children 4-8, I love to play games that help them move and use their imagination. (Dance party anyone?) I would describe my baby sitting style as engaged, imaginative and collaborative.

Hi! I’m Lesley. I’ve cared for children of different ages over the years and have been lucky to build relationships with several wonderful families, including families who have invited me back regularly. I really enjoy getting to know each child’s personality and helping them feel comfortable, happy, and safe while their parents are away. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I’m happy to follow the routines that work best for your family. Depending on your child’s interests, we might spend our time playing games, making crafts, reading, getting outside, or working on homework. I’m also comfortable helping with meals, bedtime, and other daily routines. Alongside babysitting, I’ve worked professionally in business and operations for several years. That experience has made me very organized, communicative, and comfortable handling unexpected situations calmly—but when I’m with children, my focus is always on making sure they feel cared for and have a good time. A little more about me: I love traveling, staying active, exploring Los Angeles, and spending time at home with my two cats. I’m an animal lover and am very comfortable in homes with cats or dogs. I know how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust with your children, and I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Booked by 33 families in Manhattan Beach, CA

Hello! My name is Alondra I am 25 years old. I have been a babysitter and nanny since I was in high school and have experience with newborns-12 year olds, and even twins! My love and patience towards children comes from taking care of my younger siblings being the oldest growing up. I have since then worked as a nanny/ babysitter for multiple amazing families. In addition to the childcare responsibilities, I have also assisted in homework, meal prepping and light housekeeping. Most importantly, I enjoy making long lasting connections and relationships with all the families I work with! It is what I enjoy and cherish the most. Typically with kiddos, I let them lead with their own interests to build rapport and trust but I especially love encouraging creative/imaginary play, hands on learning activities and arts&crafts! I am Fire Safety and First Aid certified. I am fully vaccinated and boosted and live in a fully vaccinated household. A little bit about me: I have a B.A. in psychology from San Francisco State where I also took child development and special education courses! I currently nanny and babysit for two sweet girls who are both almost 2! I like being outdoors, staying active and a book worm! Also love all types of animals! I take a more gentle approach when it comes to the kids I work it. That being said, I am committed to supporting your family and implementing practices that best meet your needs.

“Alondra was so sweet and great with both of my kids (toddler and baby). She was always on time and communicative.”

"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."
