Tessa 1 review
$28 per hour for 1 child

I’m currently seeking my next consistent, long-term daytime nanny position beginning in late August or September, ideally around 30+ hours per week. I have several years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and older children in both full-time nanny roles and flexible babysitting positions. I'm comfortable managing the full day-to-day routine including meals, bottles, diaper changes, naps, playtime, outdoor activities, school pickup, bedtime, and tidying up. Parents appreciate that I’m calm, reliable, communicative, and able to step into a family’s routine quickly. I’m patient and attentive, and i focus on creating a calm, warm, and fun energy with kids. I’ll be starting graduate school at LMU this fall, primarily with evening classes, so a daytime nanny role would fit very well alongside my studies. I’m based in Mid-City near Culver City and am especially interested in families on the Westside and near LMU. I’m also available for temporary nanny coverage, date nights, and occasional babysitting when my schedule allows.

“Tessa has been absolutely fantastic, and we’ve loved working with her. Although she’s new to UrbanSitter, she was happy to provide references, which we really appreciated. From the start, she was communicative, punctual, and professional leading up to each appointment. While caring for our son, she carefully listened to and followed our schedule and preferences around feeding, sleeping, and routines. She was incredibly attentive and engaging with him, and he clearly adored her. We’ve now worked with Tessa a few times and will absolutely continue to hire her in the future. Highly recommend!”

Tashi $25 per hour for 1 child

I love kids and the potent love and curiosity they have for the world. I've been trusted with neighbors', friends' and strangers' children and pets for 10 years. I'm certified in infant and adult first aid/CPR (up to date). I have some experience with infants. I'm a kind, creative person and I have a lot of patience and imagination when it comes to helping children navigate the ups and downs of a day in our crazy world. I also love pets and am happy to care for animals. I also have experience as a companion for seniors (mostly family in my case) and am happy to provide that service.

Booked by 4 families in Universal City, CA

Hello,  I have worked as a helping hand for busy parents in prioritizing their kid's needs by showing them compassion and patience. Through my guidance, I can show them to be gentle and to help encourage them to become the best they can be. I also speak English, and Spanish and am currently learning a new language, Italian. In the course of being a nanny, I have taught children to speak Spanish.    I have five years of babysitting experience, but I have more than that. Growing up with siblings, I was my mother’s helper, and I could manage caring for multiple children at once. I ensure they’re engaged in exciting, safe, and educational activities.    My experiences and personal skills make me an ideal candidate for your family. I hope to hear from you soon.    Best Regards, Katie

"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."
