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!

I have a lot of valuable experience, both with raising 3 children, teaching preschool, babysitting, and helping my 104 year old grandma with technology!
“Michelle (or Mimi as my toddler calls her) is the best. She’s been watching my very active son once a week for over a year, and I cannot emphasize how helpful she is. She’s patient, she focuses all of her attention on him and she makes playing fun. My son is absolutely exhausted after Michelle’s visits. He wakes up some mornings asking to “play date with Mimi” or will sing songs that she has taught him. Now that I have an infant too, she watches both boys with ease. Caretaking is her speciality. She’s very gentle and kind. Michelle is punctual, respectful and dependable. Whenever she comes over, I know I don’t have to worry about anything, she’s got in under control. I can go to work or run errands without hesitation.”

Hello, I have lived in the South Bay most of my life. I have an extensive background in childcare and have a 20 yr old daughter who lives with me. I have reliable transportation and an exemplary driving record and am available most all shifts. I also have a BS in Business Administration and champion safety/boundaries and a loving, calm environment. I love all stages and ages and enjoy doing arts and crafts projects with the kids. Please contact me any time with your childcare needs.

Hi, my name is Vanessa, and I look forward to meeting you! I recently graduated from UCLA and currently work part-time on weekends. I am interested in providing baby and childcare services, as well as occasional pet care. I have been babysitting since my teenage years. My knowledge of baby care is still fresh, especially since my baby niece is turning two. While it may seem easy, having an extra hand is always helpful. I possess a driver's license and own a car, which has allowed me to commute from residential areas to highways. I am comfortable with pickups and drop-offs, and I'm also okay with running quick, easy errands. NOTE: I am also open to pet and house-sitting

I've always been considered a child magnet at every family function. I work very well with children, have a lot of patience, and enjoy spending time and playing games with them. I currently have a job at Raising Cane's chicken fingers which shows I work well in fast paced stressful environments. I recently graduated high school with a 4.0 and consider myself well educated in many topics meaning I could help children with homework and understanding. I have experience babysitting family and friends children so I am able to keep children entertained!

"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."
