Booked by 2 families in Manhattan Beach, CA

I bring over 30 years of real-life, hands-on experience supporting families, homes, children, and seniors. I am the proud mother of six children, all grown and thriving, whom I homeschooled with care, patience, and intention. Being a mom is my greatest joy, and caregiving is truly second nature to me. I’ve also successfully raised two dogs and a cat, so I understand the dynamics of busy, loving households and feel very comfortable in them. In addition to parenting, I spent many years working as a house manager, where I supported families by keeping their homes organized, running smoothly, and stress-free. I see myself as an extension of your family—someone who steps in to assist where needed, whether that’s childcare, senior care, household chores, or day-to-day support. I’m dependable, adaptable, and proactive, with a strong understanding of how homes function best when care and structure work together. I have professional experience in home health care with seniors and approach elder care with compassion, dignity, and respect. I’m comfortable assisting with daily needs, companionship, light household tasks, and creating a calm, supportive environment. I truly value caring for people at every stage of life. With children, I’m patient and attentive, and I take time to understand how each child learns and processes information so I can help bring out their best—academically, emotionally, and creatively. I enjoy crafts, sewing my own clothes, and hands-on activities, and I love introducing children to meaningful skills and creativity. I also enjoy preparing wholesome foods, including making homemade organic fruit roll-ups from scratch. I’m very comfortable around dogs and horses—my children grew up around horses—and while I’m slightly allergic to cats, I have owned one and manage it well. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, experienced, nurturing, and capable caregiver who truly loves supporting families and homes, I would be honored to work with you. For more than seven years, I’ve worked closely with senior citizens, including patients living with dementia and Alzheimer’s. This experience has taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and truly understanding each individual’s needs. I’m quick-thinking, naturally witty, and able to adjust seamlessly in challenging moments, which allows me to connect easily, de-escalate situations, and provide care with both professionalism and heart.

Booked by 5 families in Manhattan Beach, CA

Hi there! My name is Kenia, I’m 27 years old, and I hold a bachelor’s degree in Child Development. I genuinely love working with children. Their curiosity, sense of humor, and the unexpected moments they bring make every day enjoyable and meaningful. I’ve worked at Beach Babies (a school and daycare) and at Art Zone, caring for children ranging from newborns to 10 years old. Both roles allowed me to build strong, trusting relationships with the kids and their families, and I truly loved every moment of it. I bring a calm, patient, and playful approach to caregiving. I’m also reliable, understanding, and adaptable to each child’s unique personality and needs. With close to a decade of experience, I feel confident in caring for children of any age and creating a safe, nurturing environment. I’d be honored to bring my experience and energy to your family and hope to connect with you soon! Warmly, Kenia

Currently i provide transportation to and from school and extra curricular activities for children of all ages, and can provide excellent references from their families, upon request.

I can adhere to a background check or anything else you desire I am open to watching your child or children either in your home or mine. I can provide reliable transportation in that I have a 2017 vehicle. In my spare time I am a volunteer at a classic car museum where I provide tours and drive visitors so they can experience the classic cars first hand. Caring for children has always been a passion of mine. I truly enjoy contributing to their development as well as learning from them in the process. My schedule is extremely flexible and I can be available at a moments notice. I look forward to assisting you and your family in anyway you may need.

“Paul was great with our 14 month old girl. She warmed up to him very fast and had a great time reading books and playing with him. ”

Aidde $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, my name is Aidde, and I am looking for my next full-time family! Unfortunately, my current nanny family is moving, and I hope to be able to care for your little one with as much love and care as I did for all my former little ones. I graduated from California State University with a bachelor’s in Science and tutored extensively, particularly helping little ones with math and reading. This is predominantly how I began my career as a nanny! I have worked in this industry for the past 7 years specifically with babies as little as four months and often with two or three more children in one household. Examples of areas I have worked include Pacific Palisades, Malibu, Manhattan Beach etc. I am comfortable transporting the children to school or extracurricular activities, along with any cooking or meal prepping that needs to be done. Traveling with the family is another example of the help I am able to provide, along with overnight stays, either local or while on vacation. I am very flexible with start times and end times; I often work long shifts, date nights, weekends, and holidays. Other services I am able to provide, include help with the laundry for the entire family, loading and unloading dishes from the dishwasher, organizing the fridge and pantry, grocery store trips, and more. I love animals and have often helped to care for them while the family is on vacation. I am CPR certified and possess all covid vaccines/booster shots. As a nanny, I love to incorporate my experience in education by helping them learn to read before they begin school, along with a second language. It is very important that children learn from a young age to set aside a small amount of time to study and learn; for example either learning how to blend sight words or learning the basics of biology. I can help make it fun and easy!

Alyssa $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I'm enthusiastic about supporting families and creating a safe and nurturing environment for children. My dedication to childcare stems from the positive experiences I've had in previous babysitting roles and my genuine desire to make a positive impact on young lives. My personality allows me to easily connect with children and build trusting relationships. Parents can expect regular updates on their child's day, either through verbal communication at pickup or via text or phone calls, whichever method they prefer. I believe in following the parents' lead when it comes to enforcing household rules, as I prioritize a collaborative approach to childcare.

"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."
