Hello! I am a mother of two children of my own, and have been caring for children for over 30 years. I have worked with different families over those years in which I’ve started with babies until they’re in high school. I love to do fun activities, museums, sports games with the children. I love to listen to music and read books.
“Roxanna has worked with my family for over 10 years on and off. She was our full time nanny for my son from 6 months to 10yo. Roxanna is exceptional and a seasoned nanny. When we were new to LA, she gave me so much information and took the kids to all the best activities and places. She evolved with our family as the kids grew. She is absolutely wonderful with babies but equally great with school aged kids. She shuttled them to activities, feed them, prepped for school and homework. She was such an incredible asset to the family. She also is genuinely such a positive and kind spirit. She loves children and is truly a professional in childcare. Her next family will be lucky to have her.”
I’m a caring, reliable caregiver with experience working with children of all ages, and I also bring the perspective of being a parent to an infant. I hold a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree, which has shaped my thoughtful, safety-focused approach to caregiving. I’m comfortable with everything from newborn care to engaging older kids in play, and I always aim to create a calm, nurturing environment while following each family’s routines. I treat every child with patience, attentiveness, and the same care I give my own.
Hihii! I’m Sabrina, I graduated from UCLA and now work full-time at the university. I’ve always been someone who takes initiative and works hard, which definitely shows in the way I care for kids. I helped raise my younger brother and have been a big part of my 7 year old nephew’s life since he was born. Coming from a big family, I’ve always had a caregiving role. I have five siblings, so I know how to manage different needs and personalities at once. I also know how to cook and would often prepare meals for everyone, which taught me how to stay organized and patient, especially during busy moments. While I was in college, I worked as a tutor and also spent time as a teacher assistant in a sixth-grade classroom, helping students with both schoolwork and classroom routines. I’m always happy to help with homework or create learning moments during play. Outside of work, I love being outdoors, going on walks, and spending time in green spaces. I’m also a big fan of cafes, matcha, cute characters (sanrio & rilakkuma), and exploring new spots around the city. I bring that same calm and creative energy when babysitting, and I always try to keep kids engaged with fun activities and time outside. I’m dependable, caring, and genuinely love spending time with kids. If you’re looking for someone who’s thoughtful, hands-on, and experienced, I’d love to help out.
“Sabrina has been such a huge part of our lives. She’s been watching my son since he was 4 and now he’s 9 and he still gets so excited whenever he finds out she’s coming over. That alone says so much about the kind of person she is. They spend their time dancing, drawing, playing games, laughing, and she always makes sure he’s fed and happy. She treats him with so much love, patience and care. It gives me so much peace of mind whenever I’m away. She also handles bedtime and morning routines like a pro and keeps me updated if anything comes up. As a mom there’s nothing more reassuring than knowing your child is safe, loved, and happy. We absolutely adore her and I can’t recommend her enough!”
My name is Nancy. I am the first born daughter of 8 children. I’ve been helping my mom take care of my siblings which have built the foundation of my profession. I’m currently a preschool teacher and have previous experience with being a substitute teacher for about 6 years. Through substituting, I was able to obtain a lot of my professional experience. I’ve been to a vast amount of daycares where I got to see and learn different learning styles in children as well as different approaches to learning and teaching children to achieve their milestones. I’ve been in a classroom where I’ve had to potty train and can say I was able to learn a few techniques. I’ve also been “long-term” in some sites where I was able to grow a bond with some of the children and celebrate their success. I do have a sibling with Asperger’s autism who is 15, so I have some experience with children on the spectrum.
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."
