Greer $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I'm Greer :) I am here to help with all of your childcare, senior care, pet care, or household service needs! As the second oldest of 7 children, caretaking has always come very naturally to me. I loved being attentive, playing with, and helping my younger siblings from the moment they were born. Whether that was playing pretend with them when they were little or driving them to/from school/dance class/soccer practice, helping with meals, etc... My very first job was as a camp counselor - where I was in charge of the 5-8 year olds. And I started babysitting kids in my neighborhood from the time I was 14! I was also a caretaker to my grandmother before she passed away from breast cancer in 2022. Helping keep her house organized and clean, cooking her meals and running errands for her. I grew up with 2 chihuahua and 2 cats (despite being allergic) and I am a HUGE lover of animals of all sizes! As for me, my friends would describe me as bubbly and silly while still remaining grounded. I attended USC while working full time so I know the importance of time management and multitasking. My favorite things are baking, singing disney songs, hiking, going to the beach, planning themed movie nights, and spending quality time with the people I love.

Samantha Rose $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Sherman Oaks, CA

Hi there! I’m a native New Yorker who loves personalities of all kinds! I started caregiving when I was 10 years old looking after my two younger brothers and have been babysitting ever since. Later on, I moved on to caring for my grandmother as she made her journey through Alzheimer’s. I pride myself in connecting with children as their friends and older sibling rather than as a figure of authority—I find it makes it easier to help them and keep them under control! My background is in the arts so I always like to push children to explore their creative sides. I’m available most evenings and for overnights with the occasional morning and early afternoon. I’m here to make your life easier!

Hi parents! I am a kind, creative, and patient nanny. I have six years of experience with kiddos 0-13 years old, including neurodivergent children, and love engaging them in active and creative play. I love the happy chaos of working with siblings and am comfortable caring for 3+ children at a time. I'm happy to help with light meal and snack prep, kid related tidying, and I have a clean driving record with a safe, insured car. I am warm and communicative, and love working with families that are the same!

"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."
