Hello, my name is Gloria and I am a senior at CSUN. I have worked with kids as a teacher assistant, caregiver, and babysitter. As a babysitter, I have taken care of children from ages 6 months to 11 years of age. Every kid is different in their own unique way and that's why I decided to major in child and adolescent development. As an older sister with two younger brothers, I learned a lot about patience, love and joy, so I definitely believe incorporating my knowledge and personal experience into my work ethics helped me become a great babysitter and caregiver.
Hello, my name is Lacey and I am a second year in college and CSU Long Beach majoring in Public Health. I have always had a passion for working with kids, which is a big part of why I want to become a pediatric PA in the future. I have two nieces and three nephews of my own from infant to 4 years, and spending time with them and babysitting them has given me a lot of hands on experience caring for children of different ages and personalities. I have also babysat for other families with kids who are older ages and really enjoyed creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for them to be in. I would describe myself as patient, responsible, and energetic. I love being creative, playing games, and being outside to have fun, but also love a movie night once in a while. I can do anything from cooking a meal, maybe not gourmet, but something balanced and sustainable and even helping with homework, especially in math and science. I have previously been CPR certified although it recently expired, but I am working on getting certified again! I am also a big animal lover and have four dogs and a cat of my own, so I am completely comfortable caring for pets too. I also have my own reliable car, so I can provide transportation if needed and am also willing to drive the family car if preferred. Overall, I am a dependable and caring babysitter who love making sure kids (and pets!) feel safe, happy, and are well cared for.
I am 63 years old, semi retired and live in the Ocean Park area of Santa Monica. I am married and raised two boys who are now adults, One Attorney and One Doctor. I love children and I have time available to me. I thought I could earn extra money by babysitting - Child Care etc. I have a nice car, I do not mind driving your child to appointments and I even prefer watching your child at my apartment so you can relax and do what you need to do at your residence. I do not have any animals as I am allergic. I am Responsible and Flexible so please reach out to me!
I have a strong background in caring for children and pets, and I genuinely enjoy helping families feel safe and supported. I’ve worked with kids of different ages, assisting with daily routines, playtime, homework, meals, and bedtime. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I always prioritize a child’s safety and well-being. I also have experience pet sitting for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, administering basic care, and providing plenty of affection and companionship. I understand how important it is to follow routines and respect each pet’s unique personality. I’m organized, reliable, and happy to help with light household tasks when needed. My goal is always to give families peace of mind knowing their kids and pets are in caring, capable hands.

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
