I am currently a swim instructor. I have worked with children my whole life. I have a CPR certification and am willing to get first aid certification as I have had it before. I am very willing to work with parents and have experience with children and pets. My hours are flexible if needed.

Hi! My name is Erika :) I have over three years of experience caring for children. After graduating with a degree in Psychology, I moved to the United States to improve my English, and that’s when I started working as a babysitter—and I quickly discovered how much I love it. I’ve cared for children of different ages. I am CPR certified, have my own car, and I’m comfortable with pets. I’m also happy to provide references. I’d love to connect with your family!

With over 5 years of hands-on experience working with children ages 5–9, I bring patience, creativity, and fun to every family I support. My background in communication and education allows me to connect with children on an emotional and intellectual level, helping them feel heard, supported, and confident in their abilities. I also can provide tutoring services for those who need it.

Hello! My name's Olivia and I am a student at Loyola Marymount University, pursuing a career in education, with a passion for cultivating engaging and caring environments for youth! With me, your kids will be in great hands and household tasks will be taken care of. I have a variety of professional and in-home childcare experience including babysitting, dance lessons, swim lessons, summer camps, and ABA. I am also an animal lover with a husky and cat at home. I believe in curiosity-led adventures that allow kids to develop their emotional intelligence and expand their knowledge. This might involve getting active outside, doing science experiments, arts and crafts, and more. I'll work with you to involve as much of your family customs into our day as possible. Additionally, I have the necessary skills and experience to work with kiddos who have sensory challenges, ASD, ADHD, and/or DS. I look forward to working with your 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."
