Emely $26 per hour for 1 child

Hello My name is Emely. I am 25yrs old from LA. I love to cook and take wellness very seriously. I am also very active and enjoy the outdoors. Growing up I was taught the importance of responsibility and care for those around me which shaped me into the person I am today. I grew up around many siblings and eventually started gaining experience with caretaking. I take pride in building that trust and connection with every family I meet to make sure we can work together. I have worked as a nanny and worked for LAUSD as a teacher aid and behavioral tech (ages TK-5th)

Victoria $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m originally from Pasadena and now living in North Hollywood. I’ve spent the last few years as a third-grade teacher in Burbank, and I’m currently taking some time away from the classroom to focus on personal projects and plan my wedding with my partner of 8 wonderful years! I hold degrees in Science and Art, along with a Master’s in Education—so I’m well-prepared to help with homework and offer tutoring in a variety of subjects. I genuinely love supporting kids as they grow, learn, and gain confidence. As an artist, I’ve worked with all kinds of materials—from clay and collage to painting and stained glass. I’m always excited to bring creativity into my time with kids, whether that means getting messy with an art project or exploring the outdoors. I’m also a UC-certified Master Gardener and have taught gardening classes in Altadena—I'd love to share that hands-on knowledge with your little ones, too! At home, I’m a proud cat, lizard, and fish mom, so I’m more than comfortable with pets. I’m also passionate about cooking (mostly plant-based!) and am happy to help with meal prep, light cooking, and tidying up around the house—just say the word. Above all, I love being silly and still carry a deep love for childlike fun, imagination, and games. I believe in creating a warm, joyful space where kids feel safe, seen, and encouraged to be themselves. Looking forward to connecting and supporting your family with care, creativity, and lots of heart!

"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."
