I am originally from Sandwich, New Hampshire. I have 15 years of education and babysitting/nannying experience, interacting with children and adults from various academic, socio- economic, cultural, disability, and ethnic backgrounds. I also have 4 years of housekeeping/personal assistant experience. I love the outdoors, reading, creative pursuits, and baking. I am always very excited to share these passions with families. I am also CPR certified because safety is of the utmost importance to me when it comes to working with children. I like to stay active by hiking, biking, and going for walks. I am highly organized, efficient, and great at creative problem solving. I look forward to working with your family!

Booked by 1 family in Sherman Oaks, CA

I'm an experienced babysitter and nanny originally from Austin, Texas. I was an Au pair in Sydney, Australia and worked as a nanny in Austin for 4 years. I've nannied for two families in NYC in the five years that I've lived there and I love kids. I've worked with all ages from toddlers to teenagers. I've also traveled with some of the families I've nannied and done overnights when the parents have gone out of town. When I was younger I volunteered with kids in the past, teaching them how to read. I'm currently living in LA and I'm looking for occasional work. Let me know if you have any questions, I'd be more than happy to discuss further what you are looking for. I look forward to hearing from you!

$28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Iliana (Illy), and I offer reliable childcare and household support for families looking for someone responsible, attentive, and genuinely caring. I have experience working with children ages 3–12 through after-school programs, summer camps, and daycare settings. I’m also comfortable caring for infants through teenagers (up to 15) from experience through my own family. My experience includes supervising daily routines, engaging kids in activities, maintaining a safe environment, and supporting structured schedules. In addition to childcare, I also provide household help, including light cleaning, cooking, and running errands. I’m organized, dependable, and respectful of family routines and expectations. I’m a cat lover and very comfortable working in homes with cats. I am comfortable with dogs but they can be super needy sometimes, haha. My availability is weekday mornings and full days on weekends up to 7 PM, and I’m happy to discuss consistent schedules or specific needs. I take trust seriously and aim to be someone families can rely on and feel comfortable welcoming into their home.

“Iliana is a very trustworthy babysitter, and I would definitely recommend her.”

"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."
