Hello! My name is Xitlali, and I’m a current student at USC studying neuroscience. I’ve always enjoyed working with children and hope to continue working with kids in my future career. I have experience caring for children ages 3–9 through both babysitting and tutoring. I’m patient, attentive, and love creating a fun and comfortable environment where kids can learn, play, and be themselves. Outside of school and babysitting, I enjoy knitting, crocheting, cooking, and reading. I also absolutely love animals and would be happy to help care for pets as part of my time with your family! I’m excited to provide dependable, caring support for your little ones. :)
Hi! My name is Constanza. I am a responsible, patient, and caring person who really enjoys spending time with children 😊 I have experience with babies and young kids since I was 15 years old because my younger sister was born when I was a teenager, so I helped take care of her a lot. This gave me my first experience with babies and taught me how to be attentive and loving with children. Currently, I take care of an 11-month-old baby and an almost 3-year-old boy for about 8 hours a day. I have known them for almost a year, so I am very familiar with their routines and needs. I help with feeding, playing, keeping them safe, and making sure they have a fun and positive day. I really enjoy doing activities with kids like playing, reading stories, going for walks, and helping them learn new things. I always try to create a safe, fun, and caring environment where children feel comfortable and happy
Hi, I’m Liz! I have 8+ years of full-time nanny experience, as well as babysitting. I fell in love with kids when I got my first babysitting job at 18. My favorite childcare experiences have been volunteering abroad teaching children English through theater and dance. With a BFA in theater, I am highly energetic, creative, and fun going. Past nanny responsibilities include meal prep, transportation, house management, overnight care, and more. I’d love to answer any questions you have to see if we’d be a good fit!
Hi there! My name is Penelope and I’m a compassionate, patient, and reliable caregiver with a genuine love for helping others. I have experience caring for children, seniors, and pets, and I take pride in creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment. I’m highly organized, attentive to detail, and always bring a calm, friendly energy to the families I work with. Whether it’s helping with homework, preparing meals, or providing companionship, I aim to make each day a little easier and brighter for those I care for.

"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."
Laura F., mom of two
