Hi my name is Aniko. I am from Hungary where I first started out working at the American Embassy as a nanny and baby sitter contributing to many families lives. I have lived in Los Angeles for over 20 years and worked with many high profile families in the film , music and fashion industry. As for me I am the silly friend kids need to have lots of fun and laughter with yet I am also the assertive teacher to discipline them for the creation of healthy boundaries. One of my favourite part of being with kids is reading stories to them in such ways that evokes and stimulates their creative imagination. I also like to take them for those nice walks in the park greeting and recognizing animals and plants. Through these experiences they are able to learn the cycles of nature and understand the inevitable laws of life. I am also good at keeping them engaged with age and developmentally appropriate activities. Keeping their area organized and tidy besides preparing healthy snacks and meals if applicable. I have excellent references from parents and hand written letters from children as well. I have college educational background from Hungary and decades of experience besides the willingness to contribute positively to the children's as well as the parents' lives so we can all feel good working together as a team.

“Aniko is great! We found her at the very last minute after being flaked on by another sitter. She was on time. She took her time with our son to be comfortable with her and was very attentive to him. She also made sure he did allot of activities and even taught him to clean up his toys after. We'll be calling her again! ”

Hi! :) My name is Ruby, and I’m a sitter who genuinely loves working with kids and being someone families can rely on. I grew up helping raise my nieces and nephews, so childcare has always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for children ranging from infants to middle school age, including early mornings and full-day care while parents were at work. I’m comfortable with diaper changes, bottle feeding, meal prep, bedtime routines, and light household tasks like dishes and laundry. Since joining UrbanSitter, I’ve also gained experience working with different families and adapting to different routines, parenting styles, and age groups. One of my nephews has nut and egg allergies (and previously had a milk allergy), so I’m very cautious about food safety and always pay close attention to labels and cross-contamination. Safety is always my top priority. I also love keeping kids engaged with fun but meaningful activities like puzzles, reading, music and dancing, crafts, and little learning games. I enjoy finding creative ways to make activities both entertaining and educational. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, currently finishing school through homeschooling, and working toward getting my CPR/First Aid certification and driver’s license. I’m responsible, patient, outgoing, and truly enjoy building positive connections with the kids I care for. Although professional babysitting/nannying is still fairly new to me, childcare itself has always been a big part of my life, and I’ve continued gaining experience through the families I’ve worked with on UrbanSitter. I’m confident in my ability to provide a safe, dependable, and positive environment for the kids I care for, and I’m always willing to learn and grow with each family I work with.

"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."
