I have extensive experience caring for children of all ages, and I specialize in applied behavioral analysis. Currently, I work in a school setting, supporting autistic children and children with disabilities in their development. I create a fun, engaging, and safe environment that fosters both learning and growth. My approach emphasizes structure and developmentally enriching activities, using play-based techniques to make learning enjoyable. For instance, I might turn toys into counting tools or transform everyday moments into skill-building opportunities. I am a compassionate, patient, and dedicated caregiver who genuinely loves working with children. Since the age of 15, I have cared for children, including those with autism, ensuring they feel supported, valued, and empowered. My goal is to provide a nurturing and educational space where children can thrive emotionally, socially, and cognitively in the classroom and at home, ultimately building productive individuals who contribute positively to society.

Ariana took care of our 1.5 yr old during a week that daycare was off. She's sweet, warm, attentive, came up with fun activities to do, and generally a fun person to hang out with. The kiddo had a great time with her. Thank you Ariana!

Hi, I had two wonderful back to back long term jobs. Those jobs ended when the child started pre-school. I am now looking for a new family. I was a Production Coordinator on Hollywood Films for 20 years. I am naturally detailed oriented, highly organized, and an excellent multi-tasker. I now enjoy babysitting because it allows me to play outdoors with Kids! I love doing creative projects with kids like: arts and crafts, painting, coloring, reading, and Play-Doh. I enjoy being outside, going to parks, beaches and libraries. My hobbies include cooking, home organizing, Pet and House Sitting. 4 Hour Minimum per Booking. I am extremely flexible. I can usually come early and may be able to stay later. If you need a regular schedule, we can do a flat rate. Please let me know if you have any questions. Debbie

Debbie looked after my 22month old daughter over 3 days whilst her daycare was closed. They had the most wonderful time from playing in parks, to visiting local libraries, Debbie was absolutely fantastic and I deeply appreciated how caring and thoughtful she was. Highly reccomend

Hello, I'm a college graduate from UCLA with a degree in marine biology. I am now completely abandoning that and pursuing a career in television production, as many in Los Angeles do. I went to high school at Notre Dame Academy all girls catholic school in West LA. I have been watching children for over 12 years and before that took care of my younger sister. I am CPR certified, love playing games, singing, and would be honored to sit for you. Thank you in advance! I take venmo, and my rates go up for travel over 10 miles, depending on the length of the commute, and for holidays. My cancellation policy is within 24 hours, after that inquiring a 50% fee of the original time requested.

Molly was great! She accepted my last minute booking and was patient and kind with my cranky toddler.

"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."
