Hi! My name is Sasha, and I’m based in Silver Lake. I have years of experience working with children through babysitting, teaching, and summer camps, and I genuinely love spending time with kids and entering their world creatively and energetically. I started babysitting in high school and college, including caring for my neighbor’s daughter through late nights, school pickups/drop-offs, and soccer practices. I also regularly babysat two boys, ages 4 and 5, where we spent most of our time doing arts and crafts, building things, playing imaginative games, reading before bed, and staying active rather than relying on screen time. I also worked as an art teacher for children ages 4–14 and taught summer camps as well. During weekly classes, I often independently managed two groups of 10–12 kids at a time, balancing creativity, structure, and making sure every child felt included and engaged. A little more about me personally, I studied English Literature in college and completed all of the coursework for my Master’s degree before ultimately deciding to move to Los Angeles to pursue music full time. I’m now a musician and creative person at heart, and I think that background has made me especially patient, imaginative, and communicative with kids. I really value creativity, curiosity, and making children feel understood and encouraged. I’m also a native Spanish speaker, very active, and love cooking, art, music, reading, and spending time outdoors. I’d be happy to help with meal prep, homework, creative activities, bedtime routines, or simply creating a fun and calm environment for your child. I’m dependable, warm, playful, and genuinely enjoy building trust with both kids and parents.
Hi, I'm Fiona. I'm from the UK but I've been living in the US for 7 years. I’m offering child care and senior care. I have been working with children for over 20 years in many different settings. I've taught music and dance classes to mums with little ones, taught dance in Primary Schools, been a full time nanny to a beautiful baby boy from 3 months until he was 2. I cared for a little girl from the age of 3-5. We loved baking together and going on outside adventures. More recently I was the director of a thriving children's ministry for a church. I was in charge of the welfare, curriculum programming and entertainment of over 150 children between the ages of 0-11 every Sunday. This included a nursery. I was in this role for 5 years. I have an undergraduate degree in Dance, and a Masters in Writing for Children from the University of Winchester, UK. Right now, I work for an organization where I write Bible studies for children who struggle with reading, helping them to engage in creative ways. I've also taught seated dance classes in senior homes across London. I spearheaded and intergenerational project called "Connecting the Generations", bringing little ones and seniors together through music and movement. I love to sing, dance, bake, read stories, and spend time outside. I aim to see those in my care thrive. I always bring approachability, warmth, patience, and fun when I'm looking after kids and seniors.
I have been a high school English teacher for seven years, serving public and private school communities. I received my education in English Literature from Biola University, with specialized study at Oxford University, and attended Humboldt State University for my teaching credentialing program. While most of my teaching experience is with high school students, I have also been a care taker for younger children as well. Really, I just think all kids are pretty goofy and great! And as a teacher, getting to see their personalities come out and alive has been the best part of my job. I look forward to serving your family!
Hello! My name is Beranger (she/her). I am a certified teacher with 15+ years of experience with a range of ages from preschool to college aged.

Hi! My name is Jacqueline, but you can call me Jackie or Jax. Born and raised in Los Angeles, CA. I consider it my backyard and love exploring its ever-changing face. I have been a mother's helper since I was 12, and at 16, I had the honor of babysitting and nannying alone. People may call me a people pleaser, but I truly enjoy being part of the village and helping people and animals, any which way. It has always been fulfilling to me. Life gets super busy, so an extra helping hand doesn't hurt anyone. I am currently at Santa Monica College pursuing a nursing degree. Thanks for taking the time to read about me, and I look forward to working with you.
“Jax has been an incredible person to have around my son. She has such positive energy and is so creative with activities. I would recommend her to any friend or stranger. She is always reliable and easy to communicate with. In addition, she is always great around our dog. My son has so much fun with her and she really encourages him to be independent and try things.”

"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."
