Hello my name is Delmi and I am looking to be your child's babysitter or nanny. I am a mother of 3 children, ages 30, 29, and 24 so I have a lot of experience taking care of children. I have worked in the same company for over 30 years proving that I am a hard and loyal worker. I am a Spanish native speaker and am proficient in English. I live in the Pasadena area and am typically available Monday through Friday starting at 8am. I love working with children because I am very loving and attentive. I hope to hear from you and work with you.

Hi! I’m Bailey 😊 I’m a UCSB alum (BS in Psychological and Brain Sciences), EMT certified, and currently in registered nursing school. I have 8+ years of experience caring for children of all ages. I worked at the UCSB Child Care Center throughout my undergraduate years, including in the infant and toddler rooms where I regularly cared for multiple children at once. I also previously worked in Labor & Delivery as an OB/Surgical Tech, where I assisted in deliveries and C-sections and gained strong exposure to newborn care and hospital safety. I’ve worked as a paraeducator supporting children with special needs and currently work as a substitute teacher (TK–12 + SPED), so I’m very comfortable with a wide range of ages and needs. I’m warm, reliable, and truly love caring for kids—it’s a big reason I’m pursuing nursing. I enjoy creating a safe, engaging, and fun environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I have my own car, am CPR/First Aid certified, vaccinated, and happy to provide references. I’m also very comfortable with pets! I’d love to connect and see if I’d be a great fit for your family!

Hi Parents, I'm Sil, a multilingual babysitter with experience working with children of all ages and also with special needs. I love playing games, telling stories, and doing indoor/outdoor activities. My goal is to add value to your child's life, keep them engaged and safe at all times. I simply adore animals and often find myself lost in conversation with them for hours on end. It's truly amazing how much love and joy they bring into our lives. 💜 Can't wait to meet your family :)
“I would not hesitate a second to hire Sil! She was fabulous! My 2 young daughters absolutely loved her. They said they would give her a rating of "1 billion out of 10"! :-) We were visiting from out out town and Sil watched our daughters at our hotel while we were at an evening event. If we lived closer, we'd hire her every time we could. Thank you Sil!”

Hi! My name is Emily and I am back on Urban Sitter after a hiatus due to a heavy travel schedule and working corporate. Im excited to connect with new families! I am best for occasional bookings like date night, random school nights etc. I require a four hour minimum (unless I have applied to a listing that displays otherwise). I have connected with several families through Urban Sitter over the years (see my reviews!) and am looking forward to being considered for your next booking.

"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."
