Policies: I charge +2 per hour for additional children not included in the original booking. I charge for hours booked + any extra hours, so please think about how much time you actually need.
“Liz is lovely! She was very communicative, reliable, and easygoing. My kids really enjoyed their time with her, and I felt confident leaving them in her care. I would absolutely hire her again!”
Hi I'm Sarah. I am a college graduate with professional work experience. I babysat in my teenage years for families in my neighborhood and some outside of my neighborhood who knew me. The majority of those families had young children & infants as they were growing their families. I also had grade school age children. I love playing with kids, making sure they are having fun and sometimes educational experiences. I love the outdoors and taking kids out to the park.
“Came on short notice and got along well with the kids, plus picked up in living room!”
Hi my name is Jeremiah (for hiring purposes I’ve used my family name Jamie). I have been a nanny for over 14 years. I have experience working with children birth to adolescents. I currently work in higher education and with preschoolers. My background is in child development and early childhood education for almost 20 years, with a specialization in trauma studies. I am in school, working on my master’s thesis in human development and looking to gain perspective with my time here (with you). I love the littles, babies are my niche. I incorporate a lot of structure and developmentally appropriate design for consistency in care based on family dynamics. I am pro active in holistic wellness *Psa* Infant care and/or special needs will be at higher rate listed. Please message before booking. I am not on daily to update my calendar as I have full schedule that fluctuates. It may reflect changes due to last bookings and may not reflect my current availability.
“Jaime is amazing! She instantly made my girls super comfortable. It was our first babysitter experience so we were pretty nervous, however Jaime kept us in the loop so we didn't feel anxious and could enjoy our time away. We definitely will have her back! ”
I have been babysitting with UrbanSitter since 2019. I enjoy playing with kids, laughing, challenging them to problem solve, and teaching them random skills. I love math; I studied math at Rio Hondo College and at UC Irvine. I’m a big sister, an aunt, and a mentor. My younger sister graduated college and went on to earn an MBA; my niece graduated from college and is now a nurse. I am an animal lover and I have a very sweet dog. He is about 10 years old and he is a husky, lab, border collie mix. Please let me know if you have any questions.
“Lorraine was great! Our toddler is often shy, but she warmed right up to Lorraine. I would definitely recommend her!”
Hello there, my name is Minami! I recently began working as a L&D nurse. I graduated from UCLA with a MSN in Nursing, and is offering childcare and household services during sole of my off days. In the past I was a home health caregiver, and is certified in CPR, BLS, ACLS, NRP, and first aid. I have also been a private tutor for over 3 years (K-6th), so I will gladly help your kids with homework! In both experiences combined, my responsibilities included driving to/from school, walking family dog(s), tutoring, cooking, and assisting with chores. Additionally, I am a crafty, DIY-oriented person who love to create fun activities if that is something your child(ren) would be interested in. In terms of childcare, I have experience taking care of my younger sibling, cousins, family friends, and the kids I've tutored. My schedule is rather flexible outside of classes so reach out if my given availability does not work out! I love to clean around the house to destress, and try new recipes when cooking!

"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."
