I have been babysitting with UrbanSitter since 2019. I enjoy playing with kids, laughing, challenging them to problem solve, and teaching them random skills. I also work as a math tutor; I studied math at Rio Hondo College and at UC Irvine. I’m a big sister, an aunt, and a mentor. My younger sister graduated college and went on to earn an MBA; my niece graduated from college and is now a nurse. I am an animal lover and I have a very sweet dog. He is about 10 years old and he is a husky, lab mix. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Lorraine was great! Our toddler is often shy, but she warmed right up to Lorraine. I would definitely recommend her!

"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."
