Hi there! My name is Monica. I have about 7 years paid experience in babysitting and been babysitting family members on and off since high school. I am also certified in First Aid/ CPR/ AED. I love kids. I enjoy watching, playing as well as teaching them. I love to nurture their interests and development whichever way they chose. Listening to their silly story and witnessing their small milestones are definitely some of my favorite most rewarding things as a sitter! A little more about myself, I grew up drawing a lot of cartoon characters and many of the kids I sit love and enjoy their drawing/coloring session with me! Currently, I’m babysitting kids ranging from 1 year old to 11 years old once or twice a week. However, my schedule is flexible since I work from home. I also tutor, specializing in math. I will charge a different rate per discussion. For older kids, pick up & drop off, rates may vary. Minimum 4hrs of booking. If booked under 4hrs, $5/ per hour additional charge would be added. Safety and communication is my top priority! Love dogs and cats! I’m vaccinated and boosted, and I DO NOT work with sick children. My calendar is not always updated, so please do message me for availability. Please feel free to reach out to me for any questions. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you!

Depending on the distance from the school to home, I wouldn’t be able to give exact weekday evening availability. Weekends are typically open (: *CURRENTLY NOT TAKING JOBS WHERE USING OWN CAR TO TRANSPORT CHILDREN *CPR & First Aid trained **Vaccinated and Boosted

I am Howard University alumnae. I love having an active lifestyle. I’ve been babysitting for the past fourteen years. I teach children from 2-18 years old how to play golf. I love to complete puzzles, play outside, and play with toys. When it comes to deciding one over the other, I would much rather read to your children than have them stare at a television screen. I believe children learn better when they are less reliant on technology for entertainment.

Hi, lovely to meet you! I'm Andrea, but everyone calls me Andi. I moved to Los Angeles about three years ago from my hometown of West Palm Beach, FL, which is where I had returned after completing a glorious three year run of "au pair-ing" in Paris, France. Since moving to LA, I've had the absolute honor and privilege of working with so many wonderful families, some with which I'm still working after meeting during my very first week here back in 2022! Growing up, my mother was the Dean of Early Childhood Education at a high school, where she not only taught her own students to be excellent teachers but also ran her very own preschool. All of her students graduated high school with the necessary credentials to immediately begin work in childcare... Needless to say, working with kids has been a major part of my life since before I can remember. In France, I was not only responsible for the care of my host children for two different families over the course of my time there [note: in French], but I also babysat and tutored for the families' friends! Other than my Parisian childcare work, I've been regularly babysitting since I was 12 years old -- including all of the childcare I've done since moving to LA -- and I've been a classical dance teacher for children of all ages. I can provide excellent references/recommendations from these families and dance studios! Though my Bachelor's degree is in Editing, Writing, and Media, (with a double minor in Political Philosophy and Entrepreneurship), I completed a Post-Baccalaureate in Psychology at UC Berkeley Extension in 2022. I've most recently worked as a Social Media Director for a political nonprofit, and I currently am in the midst of writing my first children's book. My personal interests: I love getting back into a dance studio whenever I get a chance, playing my guitar, writing, doing yoga, and going on big walks with my two year old pug named Binky. I am happy to answer any and all questions -- let me know if you think I would be a good fit for your family. *Please message me for a more accurate measure of availability*

Hello! My name is Keziah and I am currently located in the east side of LA! I have been a member of Urban Sitter since 2017. I love working in caregiving because it allows me to build meaningful connections and make a positive difference in someone’s day! I’m very family-oriented and love spending time outdoors or cooking for friends. I bring that same warmth and dependability into the care I provide! Looking forward to hearing from you!
