Hi! I’m a law student who also works full-time in finance. I’m looking for occasional evening or weekend babysitting jobs because I truly love and miss being around kids.

Booked by 3 families in Universal City, CA

Hi, my name is Sony and I love children. I moved out to LA from NY for acting. I’m offering child care, dog care, senior care, running errands and household services. I’ve worked with kids of all ages from 1 yrs old and older. Currently babysit for a few families. I’ve helped raise all of my little cousins and nieces (twins) from birth until they were teenagers. I would feed them, play with them, drop off/pick up from school, and put them to sleep. I started doing this when I was 10 yrs old. At 13 yrs old I started babysitting the neighbors kids that were 1 and 3 yrs old. I also worked at a daycare in NY taking care of 1 to 2.5 year olds. I was a nanny for a family in Los Angeles that had 2 kids that were 4 and 7. I made them dinner, gave them baths, cleaned up after them and put them to sleep. Children naturally love me. I’m very personable, empathetic, compassionate and fun. I am comfortable with senior care and dog care. I’ve taken care of my grandparents and friends of family that were seniors. I’ve house and dog sat for friends and family as well. I can also work as a household assistant. I’m open to doing other tasks as well since I have personal assistant experience.

“We love Sony! She was with our family consistently for 1.5 years, until our girls started school full time. She is timely, communicative, creative, and trustworthy. There is no one my girls like to ply with more.”

Booked by 2 families in Universal City, CA

Hi, I’m Teacher Kayla 🌿 I’ve spent the last eight years working with kids ages 4–11, and I truly love what I do. I bring a playful, calm, and creative energy, with lots of back-pocket games, songs, stories, and activities to keep kids engaged and having fun. We might be building, playing sports outside, acting out stories, reading books, or winding down with mindfulness & deep breathing. I have a college degree, coursework in Early Child Development, experience as a classroom lead teacher, and I’m CPR and First Aid trained. I’m comfortable setting kind, clear boundaries and helping kids get along, follow routines, and feel supported. I keep communication with parents easy and consistent, and I’m happy to help with meals, carpooling, light housekeeping, swimming supervision, travel, and caring for up to three children. My goal is always to create a safe, fun space where kids feel confident—and parents feel at ease.

Booked by 1 family in Universal City, CA

Hi - My name is Brittany I've been a nanny for 12 years and I'm bilingual in Spanish and English. I've also been a teacher in a Montessori preschool from ages 2-6 years old. I was enrolled for two years at Santa Monica City College, and LACC took 4 child development classes and have 12 units in child development. I’ve always been drawn to working with and learning about development of children of all ages. I started by watching my 3 younger siblings and then moved on to babysitting children family friends and now I've been a nanny for many families. The Montessori preschool has allowed me to better understand children, increase my ability to engage and play with children, and manage anywhere from 1-18 children at once. I am very enthusiastic, playful, can remain calm in stressful situations, and as compassionate as can be. If it’s nice out, I love to go for walks, visit a local park, or play in your backyard! If the day requires us to stay inside I enjoy playing games of all sorts and doing arts and crafts. I also have a clean driving record and can take the child to storytimes, museums, farmers markets, or other activities as long as I'm provided with a car seat and parents are comfortable with me taking their child to places. I love to keep and open and honest communication with parents and when I'm out with their child I like to keep a group chat with parents to share pictures and videos to involve parents in what we are doing. Please let me know if you have any questions and I can’t wait to meet your family! I have great references and if needed message me and I can message you back with all the references I have, CPR certification and resume. I also have a clean background check and motor vehicle check.

"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."
