Noemi 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Noemi (Noe), and I'm passionate about providing thoughtful, personalized care for individuals of all ages and abilities as well as pets. I've worked as a middle school art teacher and an instructional aide, supporting students with a variety of abilities. I've also been a behavior technician and worked with young ones with ASD. I’ve been a caretaker as a side job since I was 15. I have experience caring for newborns to teenagers, as well as disabled young adults. I strive to make my care meet the needs of the young ones I work with. Whether that's imaginary play, board games, puzzles, books, or video games. I make our session fun, engaging, and reach developmental milestones. I also have experience taking care and being a companion to senior adults. I’ve taken care of my grandparents (80+) and a family friend who made it to the wonderful age of 90. Companionship is crucial to their mental health and I appreciate the wisdom they have to offer. I am patient, kind, and love to talk/listen to folks stories. As a dog parent myself (two wonderful pups, ages 7 and 13), I'm comfortable caring for both small and large dogs. Whether it's ensuring a safe, nurturing environment for your loved ones or providing attentive care for your furry friends, I'm here to help. Let's connect to discuss how I can support your family!

“Noemi is amazing! From ages 9-16, Noemi babysat my younger brother who has Down Syndrome. Through the years, Noemi supported my brother in managing and completing daily routine tasks such as homework, daily hygiene, and creative outlets. Noemi was always very patient and a great communicator which supported my brother in reaching his interpersonal goals to be able to carry out meaningful conversations to build relationships. Noemi's passion for supporting other's can be seen and felt. I am so grateful to have had someone that truly values and cares for others care for my younger brother.”

Nice to meet you! I’m Kate, a 37 year old career nanny who moved from Chicago to LA in 2021 for a jet-setting/bi-coastal, travel heavy nanny position, and once the position ended, I decided to stay out here permanently. I live in Orange County with my girlfriend, and work M-Th, 7a-7p, in Studio City. My previous position was Jan ‘23- Nov ‘24. My background has always been in early childhood, and majored in early childhood education in college. I have years of experience with all age ranges and backgrounds: from kids who thrive in group settings to kids that do best with individualized, 1:1 care to kids who are neurodivergent. My first and top priority is the safety and wellbeing. Second is play, exploration, imagination, creativity, and seeing kids explore based on what they are into and things they find interesting. Third is, in my day-to-day, I take a child-centered approach. Including, but not limited to: time outside, walks, going to playgrounds, and finding activities within the home that the kids enjoy. My experience includes: working as a in-home support worker with neurodivergent kids, have worked at 3 early childhood centers (both as an assistant teacher and lead teacher); and all my experience has been from newborn to school age. In my free time: I love checking out new restaurants, adventuring the outdoors with my girlfriend, finding new trails to hike on AllTrails, the beach, and weekend trips

“Punctual, professional, and great experience.”

Booked by 92 families in Santa Fe Springs, CA

Hey there, my name is Jenny. Nice to meet you! I have been working with Urbansitter since 2013, and I have made meaningful connections with families over the years. Though I’m currently pursuing a doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, I still find joy in babysitting when my schedule allows. I’m known for being patient, goofy, and communicative. My professional background is rooted in hospitality and technology, but I’ve always had a passion for working with kids in diverse settings. I coach volleyball and volunteer as a camp counselor at The Painted Turtle Camp. I’ve also had the privilege of tutoring elementary school kids via Reading Partners and mentoring with Access Youth Academy. Each of these experiences has enriched my ability to connect with kids and support their growth in fun and creative ways.

“Jennifer was very nice and our 3 boys really liked spending the evening with her! She was professional and timely and even honored our request to speak Spanish with our children while she was babysitting them. Would definitely use again as a babysitter.”
