Izzy $20 per hour for 1 child
Hello! I am currently a full-time student at UCLA on summer break! Growing up with a large extended family meant I spent my summers watching my little cousins, nieces, and nephews. I have the most experience watching children ages 3-7, however I love kids and am comfortable with any age above toddlers!
Gisela $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m Gisela. Im a nursing student, experienced caregiver, and someone who genuinely loves working with kids. I’ve worked through the YMCA in after-school programs with children from 1st to 5th grade, and I’m also the proud, very involved aunt to a 5-year-old niece who keeps me on my toes. I’m great with animals (dogs are my specialty, but I fully respect cats and their space), comfortable with cleaning and household help, and I bring a lot of warmth and structure to the families I work with. I come from a Mexican background where caring for others is second nature, and my healthcare experience has taught me patience, attentiveness, and strong communication. I chose nannying because it fits well with my nursing school schedule and because caregiving is something I truly enjoy.
Crystal $18 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Crystal I am 20 years old and I'm currently in college with hopes of becoming a teacher and work at an elementary school. I am offering childcare, petcare and household care. I have done babysitting since I was 16, with mostly toddlers or preschoolers but I have a bit of experience with infants (8 months of experience). I have driven to/from daycare to trips to the park, and crafts. I can also work with cleaning up the house, running errands and some light cooking. I have both cats and dogs, and am currently training my dog. I have done dog walking, dog traning, and dog baths.

I have over 30 years of experience as a caregiver to children, pets and the elderly. I have been responsible for multiples, pick-ups, drop-offs, meals, homework help, bathing, bedtime and overnight stays. I am an animal lover so I am more than happy to help with pet sitting and care as well. I also have experience working with special needs children. I was previously an Intensive Behavior Instructional Assistant for the Garden Grove Unified School District for over 8 years. I have my AA in Social & Behavioral Science, Child & Adolescent Development and Psychology. ***My per child amount is always negotiable.
“Elizabeth helped me with my new puppy and old cranky pup and was very reliable. She communicated well, was on time and my pups were very happy when I got home. I would definitely use her again.”

Booked by 14 families in Canyon Lake, CA
Hello! I'm a full-time college student studying Biology. On my time off, I like to read, bake, and binge a show. I come from a bigger family so I've always helped take care of people when I can. I enjoy helping others with academics since I've had roles as a mentor/tutor from middle through high school. I'm comfortable in the kitchen and cleaning up around the house.
“Ka'imi is a very sweet and genuine person. She showed a great sense of empathy and follows direction very well. ”

"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."
