Hi, my name is Melanie. I am CPR/First Aid certified with hands-on experience babysitting, volunteering as a camp counselor, and assisting children with their daily routines. I am patient, reliable, and love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. I also have experience supporting children with special needs, including non-verbal children, which has strengthened my ability to adapt, communicate creatively, and provide compassionate care.
I am a Chinese–English bilingual storyteller at the Palos Verdes Peninsula Library with over eight years of experience working closely with young children and their families. I have taught at Palos Verdes Nursery School, South Bay Montessori School, Nihao Chinese School, and Bilingual Brains Early Learning Academy. I specialize in designing and leading highly successful “Parents & Me” programs, helping infants and toddlers feel safe, connected, and confident in their earliest social experiences. I genuinely love children and find deep joy in caring for them. I have extensive hands-on experience babysitting infants, toddlers, and school-age children, including twins. My responsibilities have included school drop-off and pick-up, arts and crafts, tutoring, and introducing children to Mandarin in a playful, nurturing way. In addition, I have experience caring for my own grandparents and am comfortable providing senior care, including cooking, driving to appointments, and offering thoughtful daily support. I am patient, attentive, and naturally nurturing, and I take pride in creating a warm, safe, and loving environment for people of all ages.

Hi- my name is Amairani, 25 year old, with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. I love being around and taking care of kids of any age. I am a caring, patient caregiver with experience helping kids, people of different age ranges with disabilities, and specific pets due to allergies.

Rebecca was raised in La Cañada Flintridge and has spent the last nineteen years supporting children’s health, development, and learning. Her childcare journey began at age twelve, when she started babysitting for families in her community—an experience that helped her build long-lasting, trusted relationships. She also provided low-cost tutoring to children who needed extra academic support, further strengthening her passion for individualized care. At seventeen, Rebecca began working at a local Montessori school with children ages 2–6, quickly growing into the role of Lead Teacher and managing her own classroom of toddlers and preschoolers. After five years, she opened her own Montessori program serving children from 6 months to 6 years old, giving her deep, hands-on experience with infant through early-childhood developmental stages. Rebecca attended UCLA, where she earned her Certificate in Early Childhood Education, and she is internationally recognized as a Montessori educator for ages 0–3 and 3–6 through the North American Montessori Center. She later graduated with honors from the University of Arizona with a Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Education Administration. In addition to her broad teaching and caregiving experience, Rebecca has worked closely with children with both diagnosed and suspected Autism Spectrum Disorder. She specializes in recognizing early signs of cognitive, behavioral, and speech delays and collaborates with the Frank D. Lanterman Regional Center to help families access the services they need. Today, Rebecca brings her expertise, calm presence, and genuine love for children into the homes of families seeking a dependable, highly qualified babysitter. With strong communication skills, extensive developmental knowledge, and nearly two decades of childcare experience, she strives to create safe, nurturing, and engaging environments for every child in her care. **Willing to share my recent Yelp Reviews!**

"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."
