Allison $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m Allison, a compassionate, optimistic, intuitive being with over five years of experience caring for little ones. While I've been familiar with children of all ages, I am most experienced with those between 18 months to ten years old. I am led by a deep sense of love and reverence for all beings and a desire to make everyone around me feel truly seen. I enjoy fostering environments where children feel respected, safe, and nurtured in their curiosity and unique modes of expression. One of my greatest gifts is my ability to handle stress with grace and positivity, providing a backdrop of emotional regulation for children to learn to navigate their ever-changing emotional highs and lows. I regard all souls to be of equal immeasurable value, therefore I see children as human beings first and foremost. As with adults, I believe their trust and respect must be earned, not demanded. This isn’t to say I’m a pushover. Contrarily, I have a direct manner and establish clear, healthy boundaries. In addition to caring for children, I have experience as a yoga instructor and a recreational dancer. (A long-term professional goal of mine is to work in Dance/Movement based therapy, therefore I value the role of movement in the development and holistic well-being of our little ones). I have two years of experience working as an ESL-tutor and can help kids work towards their academic goals. With my B.A. degree in Creative Writing from Bard College, I love encouraging children to read, watch, listen, analyze, and create their own stories, whether it be through watching movies, dressing up, or playing improv games. Additionally, I enjoy cooking, crafting, decorating, and all the small efforts that make everyday moments feel just a little more special. I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes. While I don’t have experience caring for elderly, I very much enjoy the company of elders and would consider an opportunity to work with them to be a great privilege. Located in Venice. Very flexible hours. Access to reliable transportation.

Natale $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Natále, a musician, writer, and creative community builder with a lifelong connection to caring for children. All the women in my family (my grandmother, stepmother, and aunts) have run daycares for as long as I can remember, so I’ve been surrounded by kids (and helping with them) since I was one myself. Over the years, I’ve worked as a camp counselor, voice coach for youth, and mentor for young creatives. I love helping children express themselves through music, art, and storytelling while also creating a calm and safe environment where they feel seen and supported. Beyond childcare, I host community gatherings centered on connection and creativity, so bringing people together comes naturally to me. Families describe me as intuitive, reliable, and deeply caring. I believe in nurturing imagination and self-expression just as much as structure. I’m comfortable caring for kids of all ages, assisting with homework, organizing creative play, and supporting household needs or pets. Most importantly, I treat each family I work with as an extension of my own, bringing warmth, patience, and positive energy into their space.

Cleo $27 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Cleo, and I’m a professional with a background in skincare and early childhood education. I grew up in Los Angeles, a city I love to explore, and I currently work independently in the skincare world. A few years ago, I embraced a unique opportunity to teach young children at a private school in Hollywood, a rewarding experience that inspired me to seek more personalized interactions with families alongside my career in skincare. I have extensive experience caring for children aged 1-13 and come from an artistic background, which I incorporate into my approach when working with kids. Over the years, I’ve nannied for various families, assisting with school pickups, preparing meals, engaging in creative play, and helping with homework. I aim to provide parents with a sense of comfort and peace, knowing their children are in safe, caring hands. I prioritize health and safety, especially regarding COVID-19.

Tháyla $28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Tarzana, CA

My name is Thayla, and I am a caring, dependable, and highly organized nanny with five years of experience supporting children from infancy through 11 years of age. Originally from Brazil, I moved to the United States two years ago and bring with me not only a multicultural perspective but also fluency in Portuguese and English, which I love incorporating into playful learning moments with the children I care for. Before working as a nanny, I served as Vice President of a construction company, where I developed strong organizational and leadership skills. That experience taught me how to manage complex schedules, coordinate multiple priorities, and maintain clear communication — skills that now translate into my work as a childcare professional, balancing household routines and ensuring children’s activities run smoothly. Families describe me as warm, proactive, and reliable — someone who creates a safe, nurturing environment while also keeping things running seamlessly at home. At 27 years old, I bring both maturity and energy to my work, and I am passionate about building lasting, trusting relationships with the families I serve.

Jin $25 per hour for 1 child

I genuinely love working with children and naturally connect with them, making them feel safe, happy, and heard. I’m kind, patient, and communicate warmly, which helps build trust quickly. I have over 13 years of experience as a TV producer at a major Korean broadcasting company, where I created children’s programs. This gave me a deep understanding of child development, creativity, and emotional care. As a parent of a highly gifted child (top 0.1%), I also have strong insight into nurturing each child’s unique strengths, confidence, and character. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for children and supporting their growth in a positive, structured, and loving environment.

"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."
