Juan $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Juan. I’m a bilingual English-Spanish musician and private guitar instructor offering child care, pet care, and household support. For several years in Mexico, I taught private guitar lessons in students’ homes, primarily working with children around ages 6–11. During longer visits, I often spent additional time with the children, helped keep an eye on them, kept them engaged, and maintained a calm and positive environment. I’m patient, creative, responsible, and enjoy connecting with kids through music, games, and conversation. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs and cats and have experience caring for my own pet. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, errands, light cleaning, simple meal preparation, and other basic household tasks. I’m dependable, respectful of each family’s routines, and committed to creating a safe, encouraging, and comfortable environment.

Vira $20 per hour for 1 child

Dear Hiring Family, My name is Jazzmine (currently finalizing this as my legal name; my present legal name is Vira Faith Becker), and I am applying for the live-in / or live out nanny position within your home. With over a decade of childcare experience, I offer a dependable blend of structure, creativity, and cultural values. Born in Odessa, Ukraine and raised in the United States since 2005, I’ve cared for children from infancy through the teen years across Nashville, Atlanta, and Southern California including families with up to four children, twins, and special needs children. Throughout my work, I’ve built environments where children feel safe, have fun, creative, and encouraged to be independent. My childcare style integrates Montessori and Waldorf principles with arts, music, dance, outdoor exploration, age-appropriate learning, and I incorporate Russian and Spanish to children’s daily conversation. I am available also for overnights, travel [(regionally ready) *updating passport for international travel] sick-day care, holidays, school days off, last minute, and miscellaneous moments. Summer 2025, I served as a live-in nanny for a 22-month-old, leaving only because the family is in Midwest and my calling is to be in California. I’m comfortable preparing vegetarian global meals, coordinating transportation, maintaining household structure, and assisting with light housekeeping. Professionally, I have worked in guest services at Macy’s DTLA, where I delivered high-quality service, supported multiple departments, and maintained strong performance until the store’s permanent closure. Afterward, I traveled to 15 different locations in the United States, expanding my cultural awareness and strengthening the empathy and adaptability I bring into private homes. In addition to childcare, I worked as a performer and character actress in Hollywood LA last day 9/10/2026. I am grateful as it enhanced my communication skills, creativity, patience, and ability to stay energetic in fast-paced settings all qualities that naturally elevate my work with children. I am fluent in English and conversational in Russian and Spanish, with ongoing study in both. I hold CPR & First Aid certification and maintain an active background check. I would welcome the opportunity to support your household with reliability, consistency, and 100 % integrity. Thank you for your time and consideration, I hope to be the right nanny for your growing family! -Sincerely Jazzmine

Laura $30 per hour for 1 child

Married for 30 years and a mother for over 26 years now! I’ve been a professional executive assistant for over 25 years, and recently, I’ve also worked as a house manager and personal assistant for over 3 years. I’m semi-retired and miss engaging with children. I’ve been a pet owner for over 15 years and am also a member of a dog rescue organization, so I’m quite familiar with dogs. I’ve lived in Los Feliz for 30 years and was born in Los Angeles. I’m active, fit, and enjoy walking daily. I’m excited about the opportunity to help a young family! I’m a responsible adult with excellent references, both personal and professional.

"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."
