Hi my name is Yulissa! I love to be a child caretaker. I’ve raised my siblings since they were little. I worked at an after school program in an elementary school and loved my job very much. I switched my major from nursing to teaching because I found that I love working with kids. I’m understanding and compassionate and very playful. I believe that children should be protected and loved. I want to be another sitter in this world parents can trust and babies can hang out with and feel safe. I truly believe that children should be educated with love, patience, and validation.
“As Yulissa’s previous supervisor for an afterschool program, Yulissa demonstrates exceptional skills in managing and caring for children of various ages. She consistently showed a great deal of patience, creativity and responsibility while ensuring the safety and wellbeing of the children under her care, and she cares tremendously. Her abilities to engage children in educational and fun activities were outstanding as she create an environment where children felt happy, safe, and were eager to learn. Her strong communication skills allowed her to interact effectively with children, parents, and school staff, keeping everyone informed about the day to day wellbeing of the children. I am confident that Yulissa’s experience, dedication and genuine love for children makes her an excellent choice for any childcare position. She would be a valuable asset to any family looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
Greetings! I have 5 years of childcare/nanny experience. I am fluent in some Spanish and have experience with special needs. I am full of exciting energy and love to sing and dance!

Note : Urbansitter changed my profile name from “Amy” to my official name HongMei. Please call me Amy. I have been vaccinated for Covid and just had my Flu shot. Sept 2021 UPDATE : Returning to child care after 18 months off due to COVID. Available MON & FRI from 8-6pm. Early Mornings, Evenings, and Weekends remain on a case-by-case basis. 1. CHILD CARETAKER: * I absolutely love kids. I’m one of those "born to be a child caretaker" type of women. I have been taking care of children since before my boys (5 & 7) were born. Once my boys started school full-time, I began increasing my hours. We relocated to my husband’s parents home in Rhode Island during Covid. We returned to LA to start the new school year, and I’m returning to child care full time. * I provide parents with the confidence their child(s) are safe, happy, and well cared for. Previously through word-of-mouth, I've aggressively used UrbanSitter since August. * I’ve babysat months-old infants, supervised older children, and everywhere in-between. I had a live-in Nanny when both my sons were born. From this experience, I learned 1st hand how an extra pair of hand can save a new-mom’s sanity. * Difficult and/or active kids are no issue. I’ve never found a child whom didn’t respond well to my care. My husband and I have NEVER spanked our children. Timeouts, communication, & firm directions are more than adequate to correct a child's behavior. I’m very patient & understanding with all children. 2. SAFETY: * I grew up with traditional Chinese medicine, and learned western medicine through my husband's family (doctors). * I took First Aid & CPR classes in 2013, and in the process of being re-certified * I look forward to keeping your child(s) safe, happy, and engaged until you return home. 3. AVAILABILITY : * YOUR home: WEEKDAYS : M-F 8am - 6pm. EVENINGS & WEEKENDS : Case-by-case basis. * MY home : 24/7. We have a guest bedroom also used as a kid’s playroom. I babysit some of my regulars at my home. Welcome to random last-minute inspections, our home is both VERY child friendly, and always spotless. 4. ABOUT ME : * I am 41 years old, from China, and moved to the USA in 2015. My husband is from Rhode Island, and we have been married since 2008. * We raise our boys in a multi-cultural home. I’m therefore cognizant, and empathetic towards differing views of raising children. I
“Great ”
Hi, there! My name is Alyssa, and I am native to the Bay Area, having moved to LA in 2024. I love to read, learn about different cultures, cook, and spend time outdoors, usually by taking long walks around the neighborhood with my dog or just sitting outside and soaking in the sun. Having grown up in a big family I’ve always been surrounded by kids and loved it. Their happy-go-lucky nature and inquisitive spirit make it a joy for me! In terms of childcare experience: I've spent three summers working as a camp counselor for Steve and Kate's Camp in San Francisco. The attendance of campers varied on a daily basis but the Sunset location's average was around 130 kids. The ages ranged from 5 to 13. Every day was busy, and I never knew what to expect, but it was always a lot of fun. For three separate summers, I worked as a teaching assistant at my old high school, St. Ignatius College Prep, mainly working with middle school-aged kids. I’ve been using the app Urbansitters since about 2018 and I’ve gotten to know many lovely families as a result. I love getting to know all sorts of different kids. Even though they may be young, they all have their own unique personalities, which makes my job of hanging out with them all the more fun. If you have any questions please contact me. Hope to hear from you! :)
“Played well with my 4 year old son”
Hi! My name is Casiana and I 30 I used to be an au pair and I have around 10 years of experience babysitting children ages 3 months to 7 years old. My experience includes not only occasional babysitting but also work as a full-time nanny. It is very rewarding to be with a family for several years and see children grow I have done yoga with kids, arts and crafts, coloring, drawing, painting, read books, took kids to story time at the library, made cards, decorated cookies for Halloween and Christmas, made gingerbread houses, went to doctors appointments, went to mommy and me classes with babies and their moms, took kids to play areas/indoor playgrounds, parks and outdoor playgrounds, scavenger hunts, went to piano recitals, did zoom ballet classes, went swimming in the pool and at the beach, went to the farmers market with kids, grocery shopping and cooking together, you name it: I’ve done it! I have a holistic approach and I like Waldorf, Montessori and gentle parenting philosophies and ideas but I am also flexible and follow whatever guidelines the parents like and advise. My interests outside babysitting include volunteering, community organizing, vegan food (I’ve been vegetarian for over a decade), mindfulness and meditation and I love dogs (I’m obsessed with my pugs lol) I also like reading and started my own book club last year.

"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."
Michelle R., mom of two
"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
Heather B., mom of two
