I am a caring and reliable individual looking to help out families when I am available. My primary experience is with infants and toddlers but, I have babysat/nannied for ages 2 mos-16 yrs. I graduated from the University of San Diego with a BA in Behavioral Neuroscience and then spent most of 2022 traveling abroad. I love animals and enjoy going for walks, spending time at the beach, traveling, and caring for children! :)
“We’ve hired Brennan twice now to watch our 3.5 year old and our 1.5 year old, and she’s been kind, dependable, and professional! She jumps right in as soon as she arrives, maintains routines, and asks all the right questions! Our 1.5 year old has separation anxiety, but she felt comfortable in Brennan’s very capable hands! Highly recommend!”
Hi I’m Lena. I’ll take great care of your children! As a mom to a teen daughter and many, many years of child care and nannying experience, I’ve cared for children of all ages — from newborns to teenagers. I understand from experience how important it is to find someone you can truly trust, and I always want to make sure your children feel safe, happy, and engaged while in my care. Whether it’s playing games, reading, doing crafts, or just having fun by letting them be kids, I love creating a nurturing environment. I’m very reliable, patient, and will treat your children as if they were my own, (probably better actually 😁) I also can run errands do house cleaning and cooking. Looking forward to caring for your precious family.
I'm passionate about caring for children, with 6 years of experience as a nanny/babysitter. I have a graduate degree in communication and am certified CNA, have a CPR and First Aid. I'm fluent in English, Portuguese and know Spanish. I have a creative and friendly personality, and I'm reserved when it comes to respecting families' privacy and maintaining professionalism. I communicate with parents through written daily reports and verbal communication, and I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules. I love playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games with children. I can comfortably care for multiple kids at the same time, even with an age gap. But at the moment would love to find a job to care for only one kid. I would love to help your family :)
“I highly recommend Lili! She was a regular sitter for my son before he turned one year old, and occasionally watched my two daughters (4 and 6) when they were out of school. She is an active, engaging, no TV, no cell phone, super reliable type of caregiver. A rare find. And my kids still ask for her when we need a sitter!!”
Hi I’m Lauren! I am an engineer by trade, and a loving aunt by life! I’m currently here to help support my sister while she needs babysitting help. Thank you!
“Warm, friendly, and great with kids (and pets)!”
I’m a San Diego native and new to UrbanSitter. I am looking to help you and your family out. I have experience babysitting and coaching kids. I grew up playing basketball, soccer, flag football, and ran track . I’m very active and like to reflect that in my care. I’m great with kids and make every experience a learning opportunity. It’s never too early start. I’m active so I love getting the little ones involved with extra curricular activities. I’m always open for a phone conversation or a FaceTime! I can assure your little ones will be in good hands. It would be an honor to partake in your childcare.
“Fantastic sitter! She covered for us in the clutch and did a great job. Our kids love her , everyone felt comfortable and we instantly felt like we’ve known her for a long time. ”

"UrbanSitter has supported my needs for reliable and joyful sitters. Whether it be for work, recreation or last-minute emergencies, we've made wonderful relationships with local sitters who have become a part of our family!"

"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."
Laura F., mom of two
