Maya $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Maya and I’ve been working with babies, kids, seniors and teens with intellectual disabilities since I was 16 years old. I have experience babysitting newborns, nannying toddlers and children, volunteering at convalescent homes and being a teachers assistant to special needs high school classes. Some fun facts about me: I love roller skating, arts and crafts, swimming, hiking and reading - I even spent many years in charge of pajama story time for kids at my local bookstore. I have lots of energy and love being around kids of all ages. I’m very comfortable running errands, doing pick ups/drop offs and cleaning/organizing. I also love animals of all kinds and would be happy to pet sit anytime! I am a native English speaker and conversational in both Spanish and Portuguese :)

Sasha $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sasha, and I’m based in Silver Lake. I have years of experience working with children through babysitting, teaching, and summer camps, and I genuinely love spending time with kids and entering their world creatively and energetically. I started babysitting in high school and college, including caring for my neighbor’s daughter through late nights, school pickups/drop-offs, and soccer practices. I also regularly babysat two boys, ages 4 and 5, where we spent most of our time doing arts and crafts, building things, playing imaginative games, reading before bed, and staying active rather than relying on screen time. I also worked as an art teacher for children ages 4–14 and taught summer camps as well. During weekly classes, I often independently managed two groups of 10–12 kids at a time, balancing creativity, structure, and making sure every child felt included and engaged. A little more about me personally, I studied English Literature in college and completed all of the coursework for my Master’s degree before ultimately deciding to move to Los Angeles to pursue music full time. I’m now a musician and creative person at heart, and I think that background has made me especially patient, imaginative, and communicative with kids. I really value creativity, curiosity, and making children feel understood and encouraged. I’m also a native Spanish speaker, very active, and love cooking, art, music, reading, and spending time outdoors. I’d be happy to help with meal prep, homework, creative activities, bedtime routines, or simply creating a fun and calm environment for your child. I’m dependable, warm, playful, and genuinely enjoy building trust with both kids and parents.

Norma $35 per hour for 1 child

My name is Norma, I am 39 years old and I have 15 plus years experience working with children. I have an Associate's Degree in Child Development and I have had the opportunity to work with children from ages as early as 6 weeks old all the way up to school age. I worked as a preschool teacher for five years. I was the lead teacher in my classroom. Along with two other teachers, I had 24 children in our classroom. I am bilingual in both English and Spanish. I enjoy working with children and engaging with them in any environment. I enjoy reading to children, story time is one of my favorite things to do. I try my best to bring the book to life and I have the children engage with me. More than anything though, I enjoy singing and dancing with the little ones. I am a nurturer and believe that is why I love and enjoy working with young children and have been able to always build strong bonds and relationships with the children and families I’ve worked 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."

"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."
