Hi! I’m Lisa - thank you for visiting my profile! I’m a UCLA graduate and worked full time for many years in politics and civil rights. I’m now in a Master of Clinical Psychology program at Pepperdine and currently see patients for mental health treatment as a Marriage and Family Therapist trainee. I specialize in adolescents and seniors while offering affordable rates via telehealth, so feel free to reach out about that as well! When I’m not seeing patients, I love to babysit in the evenings and I am also available to provide companionate care and transportation for seniors. I’m fully vaccinated, including the latest COVID shot from Fall 2025. For over 20 years, I’ve been babysitting, nannying, and tutoring children of all ages. During that time, I’ve had the pleasure of working with several sets of twins, one set of triplets, and children with asthma, food allergies, ASD, behavioral challenges, and diabetes. In my younger years, I coached a competitive cheerleading squad (ages 11–14), taught at cheer and dance camps (ages 3–14), and worked at a gym teaching dance, cheer, and children’s fitness. I also spent five years as a lifeguard on a Naval base supporting their Search & Rescue training, so CPR and First Aid are second nature to me. When I’m with the kiddos, I love activities that spark creativity and laughter. Arts and crafts, puzzles, impromptu plays, Lego masterpieces, and board game strategy sessions are all personal favorites. If the weather cooperates, I’m also game to get outside to play sports or just burn off some energy. I lean toward a gentle-parenting approach, utilizing kind but clear communication while keeping things fun and warm. With infants and toddlers, I know how important routines are: play, eat, sleep, repeat! I’m also able to read cues and adapt when a little extra comfort or flexibility is needed. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your family! Policies Cancellation Policy: Barring extenuating circumstances, cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice require full payment of the scheduled booking. Health Policy: Out of respect for the medically vulnerable older adults I also work with, I’m unable to care for children who are sick. Thank you for understanding and helping keep everyone healthy!
Hi families! My name is Allison, and I am currently a TK Special Education Teacher. I earned my Special Education teaching credential through CSUN, and when I am not teaching, I am available for babysitting and childcare support. I have over 18 years of experience working with children of different ages and needs, including children with disabilities and developmental delays. I am CPR certified, fingerprinted, and have completed background clearance through LAUSD. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish, have my own car, and am comfortable helping with routines, play, learning activities, and creating a safe, caring environment. I truly enjoy working with children and supporting families, and I would love the opportunity to help with your childcare needs.
“Allison was so great with our kids! We were visiting from out of town and needed a sitter for one night we were going to a concert, so finding a sitter in a town that we didn't know anyone was super important that we felt confident. Allison was so sweet and even brought stickers for our girls to play with. She had great communication leading up to the day she came and we would absolutely hire her again when back in LA!”
Hi! I’m Mandy, a caregiver with almost 20 years of experience under my belt. I work with kids, seniors and pets of all kinds! I have a film/TV degree from LMU and work in entertainment professionally. I love working with kids and parents and providing peace of mind. Highly communicative and organized, happy to do check ins and updates so you feel comfortable that all is well. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions and I look forward to meeting you!
“Mandy was so wonderful. The kids loved her and we were able to enjoy our night knowing they were well looked after”
I have extensive experience caring for children of all ages, and I specialize in applied behavioral analysis. Currently, I work in a school setting, supporting autistic children and children with disabilities in their development. I create a fun, engaging, and safe environment that fosters both learning and growth. My approach emphasizes structure and developmentally enriching activities, using play-based techniques to make learning enjoyable. For instance, I might turn toys into counting tools or transform everyday moments into skill-building opportunities. I am a compassionate, patient, and dedicated caregiver who genuinely loves working with children. Since the age of 15, I have cared for children, including those with autism, ensuring they feel supported, valued, and empowered. My goal is to provide a nurturing and educational space where children can thrive emotionally, socially, and cognitively in the classroom and at home, ultimately building productive individuals who contribute positively to society.
“Ariana was awesome! She planned a fun day with my two daughters 5 and 2, was communcative, on time, and very sweet and reliable! Highly recommend!”
Hi! I am an Event Planner, Personal Assistant, House Manager and Lifestyle Manager.

“Angela is great! Super trustworthy, responsive, flexible and really good with my cat, always stays with him for a while and he likes her so much. Follows instructions perfectly, even if a bit more complicated than usual as my Ziggy is a senior cat”

"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."
