Canaya $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Signal Hill, CA

Hi mamas and papas! 🩷 I am a professional nanny with a big heart for little humans! I’m currently looking to transition from my full-time sales career (last day-Mar 13!) into nannying full-time so I can have more flexibility, freedom, and most importantly follow my true passion of caring for children!! I have a Bachelors in Liberal Studies from CSULB with a concentration in Language Arts (even though math is my favorite subject!). My original plan was to become a full time teacher, I am still working on my credentials, but would now prefer to tutor independently. I spent three years as a substitute teacher and also worked as an RSP assistant, supporting students who needed extra guidance, patience, and time to complete their work. I have four years of experience as a professional nanny. I am also a hands-on auntie of 9 and the primary familial caregiver! I am open to part-time positions, evenings, weekends, and even travel opportunities. I am comfortable caring for children of all ages, abilities, and health needs. Every child deserves to feel safe, supported, and celebrated for who they are!! Also welcoming opportunities for senior care, pet care, and home sitting! (I had a dog that I loved dearly for 12 years and have experience with hospice care for a relative who was battling ovarian cancer for two years) Happy to pass a background check or Livescan! Excited to support families by helping you care for the most important people in your world! I’m flexible and happy to provide discounts for siblings and cash payments! Open to paid working interviews, so we can make sure we are a good fit for each other! **Extremely respectful of dietary restrictions! References available upon request. Looking forward to connecting 🫶🏼

Aveed $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Aveed. I genuinely love working with kids and have 3 years of experience at Kumon, where I helped students of all personalities and learning styles. I was often trusted with more challenging children because of my patience, creativity, and ability to connect with them while keeping learning fun and productive. In addition, I have 2 years of nannying experience for neighbors, where I regularly cared for multiple children at once. I’m comfortable managing different ages, keeping kids engaged, helping with homework, and maintaining a safe and structured environment. I’m very creative and enjoy playing the piano and violin, painting, and coming up with engaging activities that keep kids entertained and learning. I also love staying active, whether it’s playing outside, doing crafts, or organizing games. I love animals too — I have a puppy of my own and am happy to be around pets. I’m responsible, patient, and dependable, and I strive to create a safe, positive, and fun environment for children. I would love the opportunity to work with your family!

Hi! my name is Katrina. I am currently a student at Cal State Long Beach. I offer child care, senior care, pet care, tutoring, and household services. I am an older sister to two siblings. I enjoy being around children I've spent many of my weekends volunteering for my church's daycare. I have experience with kids of all ages and caring for multiple kids at a time. I can also provide reference numbers if needed. My responsibilities have included tutoring, crafting, outdoor and indoor activities, preparing lunch or snacks, cleaning up messes, pick up and drop off etc. I have been a caretaker to my Grandmother in her 80s since I was 14 years old so I also offer senior care. I could cook, clean, organize medicine, or do any task required of me. I also work as a household assistant, I can cook, do dishes, do laundry, clean the house, etc.

“Katrina once again is very prompt she comes at her designated time. The girls are feeling very comfortable, she receives them with respect. I too feel very confident with letting her take my grandchildren to school I’m adding to this review. Katrina worked for us for over 2/ 1/2 months. She also worked when she went back to school. I feel very confident with her. She responded quickly when I needed more days even though her schedule was different. I appreciate her loyalty to assist. ”

"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."
