Hello! I enjoy being around children and would love to help your family out for the day. I have been babysitting since high school and have been using Urbansitter for six years now. Other involvement working with children includes Bible School, church nursery, 4-H, multiple costume character positions, and a karaoke host for children at an amusement park. I have a college education and am a hard worker. I take pride in my promptness as well as my patience when dealing with tantrums. My approach when babysitting is to try and engage children in games or reading, instead of electronics. I also like to do arts and crafts projects as a form of interaction. I would like to be a role model for your child. I don't drink or do drugs and I'm not into the party scene, so you don't have to worry about your child being exposed to any poor behavior. For those of you that feel comfortable, I have memberships for Descanso Gardens and Huntington Gardens and can take your child for free. I am CPR and first aid certified. Feel free to ask me any questions. I'm excited to work for you and meet your children! I have a Golden Retriever that tags along to my regular families. If you would like her to join, feel free to ask. She's very calm and great with children. She has experience with babies and children with special needs. She's also great with all other pets and loves making new friends. If you need more reassurance about her behavior, please check out my reviews from other families. Thank you! If you would like information on my other services, just ask and I will happily provide background and references! I have 2yrs of caregiver experience. NOTE: Pet fees will differ from my child rates and will be based on the need. Thank you! Another Note: If you must cancel on me for any reason, please do it at least 1hr in advance. I typically arrive to locations 30min early, just to make sure traffic doesn't delay me from being on time. Also, if you're canceling, consider the fact that I have already passed up multiple jobs. The more notice you give, the more time I have to find other work. Thanks for your time!

Ashley was great! Thank you so much!

Booked by 3 families in Stevenson Ranch, CA

I have worked in a school setting for 9 years now working as a teacher assistant, a behavior therapist one on one for children with Autism, and providing services in home settings in addition to school settings. I also babysat for over a year full time while going to university. I graduated with my bachelors in psychology and my masters in counseling/clinical counseling. At this time, I am currently a high school counselor working full-time and have some time during the week in the evenings or on some weekends to babysit. I prefer picking up shifts occasionally. I am organized, responsible, trustworthy, punctual, empathetic, loving, friendly, and extremely playful. My empathetic nature has always benefited me when working with kids because they always gravitate towards me. I’m the oldest cousin in the family, so I was always in charge of taking care of my cousins when they were little. I’m a great caregiver because I like to ensure that everyone is safe.

Zulma was fantastic! She was punctual, attentive, and followed all instructions perfectly. She was amazing with our 4-month-old son and even engaged wonderfully with our 5-year-old daughter, who she wasn’t there to watch. Highly recommend her!

Cameron $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi. I’m Cameron, an athlete and attend Valencia High School. I have a natural love and care for children. I’ve been taking care of kids from the ages of newborn to 10 years old for several years. I have regularly cared for many infants for local families in Santa Clarita and can provide references. Since I am an athlete, I am hands on with the children and engaging them in active games and play that they enjoy. I love cooking and making meals or snacks for the kids I watch. I have taken care of children as after school care , weekends and also nighttime events when parents are out. Since I am a competive athlete as a a softball player and a former equestrian horse jumper, I have a high level of responsibility and naturally do the right thing to care for the children under my watch. I look forward to meeting you and your kids soon!

Booked by 1 family in Stevenson Ranch, CA

Hi my name is Aniko. I am from Hungary where I first started out working at the American Embassy as a nanny and baby sitter contributing to many families lives. I have lived in Los Angeles for over 20 years and worked with many high profile families in the film , music and fashion industry. As for me I am the silly friend kids need to have lots of fun and laughter with yet I am also the assertive teacher to discipline them for the creation of healthy boundaries. One of my favourite part of being with kids is reading stories to them in such ways that evokes and stimulates their creative imagination. I also like to take them for those nice walks in the park greeting and recognizing animals and plants. Through these experiences they are able to learn the cycles of nature and understand the inevitable laws of life. I am also good at keeping them engaged with age and developmentally appropriate activities. Keeping their area organized and tidy besides preparing healthy snacks and meals if applicable. I have excellent references from parents and hand written letters from children as well. I have college educational background from Hungary and decades of experience besides the willingness to contribute positively to the children's as well as the parents' lives so we can all feel good working together as a team.

Aniko is great! We found her at the very last minute after being flaked on by another sitter. She was on time. She took her time with our son to be comfortable with her and was very attentive to him. She also made sure he did allot of activities and even taught him to clean up his toys after. We'll be calling her again!
