Hi familiessss I’m Vitória, and I have over 7 years of experience supporting families throughout Los Angeles as a nanny, household assistant, and personal organizer. I’ve cared for children from 3 months to 13 years old, with most of my experience being with families of three children between the ages of 2 and 9. My responsibilities have included school pick ups and drop offs, meal preparation, daily routines, activities, homework and bed time routine. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting. I have some weekdays mornings available and weekends. I’m warm, dependable, proactive, and truly enjoy making life easier for the families I work with. I look forward to connecting with you!
Hi my name is Taz. I have over 9+ yrs of babysitting experience with children ages toddlers - 10+ yrs. I am the go to sitter for all my friends & I have regular families that I work with monthly. I have families that I work with date nights, nanny coverage, school closure, etc. I provide my monthly availability calendar to families which they enjoy this format, and I also can be reached out anytime via text for dates, last min requests, etc. I have experience petsitting (I have a dog & cat) & housesitting. I have loved the experience of caretaking and I look forward to meeting more sweet kids / families in the neighborhood. When I'm not caring for your loved ones, photography is a passion of mine specializing in photojournalism, candids, & child photography. I also help pt at an office on flexible weekends. I am reliable, I have a flexible schedule, & I provide light housework while kids are sleeping. I look forward to meeting you. :)
“Taz has been our primary go-to sitter for the last year. My 3.5 yr old son absolutely adores her and asks for her constantly. She’s our date night sitter and handles bedtime like a pro, and we also book her to watch him when his preschool has a day off. On those days they play outside, go for walks, make art, play play doh and have a blast. A bonus is she takes amazing photos while they’re hanging out. Taz is super trustworthy, easy to communicate with and very reliable. I also love how she sends us a view of her month’s availability. We love Taz and highly recommend her!”
Hi everyone! My name is Nicole and I am currently pursuing a doctorate degree in Occupational Therapy at USC. OT is a healthcare profession that focuses on "occupations" needed for daily activities and routines. Occupations can include self-care activities like bathing, dressing, or hobbies that are important and meaningful to the individual I have experience working with kids through two different tutoring jobs I had in the past. I also interned at a memory care facility for older adults with dementia. Aside from that, I have gained multiple experiences and knowledge about working with people who have physical and cognitive disabilities through school. I am also available to run errands if needed. As a grad student, I am looking for part-time opportunities to support my studies! Looking forward to meeting you all.
“Nicole has been wonderful with my son! She is reliable, caring, responsible, and very easy to communicate with. She handles school pickups and takes great care of him while I’m at work, which gives me great peace of mind. My son is comfortable with her, and I really appreciate her patience, dependability, and positive attitude. She has been a great help to our family, and I would highly recommend Nicole to any parent looking for a trustworthy and caring nanny or babysitter. We’ve had a great experience with her!”
Hi! I'm Darya - an international student from Belarus. I have lived in the US for 4 years, and before UrbanSitter I cared for pets (Rover.com) and worked as a barista at Universal Studios. Back at home, I spent more than 10 years caring for my younger cousins. So I can be relied upon with kids of all ages from 3 to 15 :) I would describe myself as a cheerful and calm person, open to feedback and willing to make friends with kids. As for my availability, right now I am pretty much always free for several months! Please reach out if you need any of the following: babysitter, petsitter, household assistant. 👼🏻 I can cook, clean, run errands, create fun activities for kids, sing, draw, study and play with them. 🦮 I am also experienced in walking dogs and watching cats. Let me know if you have any further questions and I hope to meet you soon ❤️
“Darya responded quick our communication and was punctual on the day of. She is kind, and my son (5 y) loved her!!! We will definitely use her services again and highly recommend ☺️”
Hey there! My name is Olivia and I am a professional nanny and family assistant located in Los Angeles. I’ve been working as a nanny for about 10 years and have experience with children of all ages (infants, toddlers, elementary-school, middle-school). Over 5 years of those were working full-time for various high-profile families in San Francisco. Given my experience as a family assistant, I am eager to help out in any way your family needs—whether it is organizing, doing dishes, cooking meals, or doing laundry. I have my B.A. magna cum laude in English and Comparative Literature from UCLA and my MFA in Creative Writing from SJSU. Before my return to nannying, I worked as a 6th-12th grade English teacher in Palo Alto. That said, I can also offer basic tutoring or homework help for your child. I am happy to match your family’s style as needed. Generally, I use a RIE/respectful parenting approach when providing childcare (I have a RIE certification for nannying). I can provide household duties as needed (cleanup, laundry, errands, etc.) I also have a reliable car that I can use for childcare duties if need be. I am also a huge animal lover and open to pet care/pet sitting as needed! I look forward to meeting you!
“Fantastic and very professional. Highly recommend!”

"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."
