Hi! My name is Josie, and caring for others has always been a big part of who I am. I helped raise my two younger sisters growing up, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to create a safe and supportive environment for children of all ages. I’ve also volunteered through church programs caring for children, helping supervise activities, keeping kids engaged, and making sure they felt comfortable and included. I genuinely love being around children and am often at my happiest when I’m spending time with them, whether that’s playing games, helping with homework, doing crafts, reading stories, or simply being a positive and dependable presence in their lives. I’m a college graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Biology, and families describe me as kind, trustworthy, organized, and easy to communicate with. I’m also a devoted pet owner and have cared for my dog, Daisy, for the past 10 years. Being responsible for her health, happiness, and daily care has strengthened my nurturing nature and attention to detail. My goal is to provide parents with peace of mind while creating a fun, safe, and caring environment where children can feel supported, encouraged, and valued. I treat every child with the same patience, kindness, and respect that I would want for my own family.
Hi I'm a currently living in LA until September! I have a passion for the outdoors, writing, fashion, and music. I have worked with kids for most of my life including camp counselor experience where I stayed with 9 kids for over three weeks overnight! I am excited to hopefully help you out!
Hello, my name is Vivian. I currently am enrolled in my 2nd year of a Radiologic technologist program. I also work Part time as a Medical Assistant with 8 years of experience. I am CPR certified. I have been babysitting since I was a teenager. I’ve cared for children aged newborns to teens. I enjoy making memories with children as simple as watching a fun movie, creating crafts, spending time outdoors or having dance parties. I also have some experience with Senior care. Simple tasks including daily activities such as house work, meal prep, cooking, feeding assistance, dressing, shopping, etc. I have plenty of experience caring for Dogs and cats as well. I currently have a Doberman and a few cats. Can help with walks or just play time, feedings and light cleaning.
Hi! I’m Dakota, I am a 2025 graduate from Palos Verdes Highschool, now entering my freshman year at Harbor College. I will be 19 years old in January. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I am starting a new job at Creative Brain Learning as an after school teacher at Crestwood Elementary in Rancho Palos Verdes. Dance has always been a passion of mine, in high-school, I was on the song team (dance/pom) so I am very spirited and outgoing. I have extensive experience as a caregiver. I am the oldest of 2 younger siblings that I care for and 5+ years of experience with sitting. I have babysat in the past for neighborhood families through other sitting apps such as Bambino. In the past summers, I would work at La Primera Preschool with all the younger children. I would assist the caregivers and teachers in changing diapers, cleaning, and watching the children play, etc. I can prepare simple meals for your child, help your child with homework, and I am great with pets! I can also do late nights if you need more time while you’re out! I work from a place of empathy and kindness. I would love to hear from you!

"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."
