My name is Nancy. I am the first born daughter of 8 children. I’ve been helping my mom take care of my siblings which have built the foundation of my profession. I’m currently a preschool teacher and have previous experience with being a substitute teacher for about 6 years. Through substituting, I was able to obtain a lot of my professional experience. I’ve been to a vast amount of daycares where I got to see and learn different learning styles in children as well as different approaches to learning and teaching children to achieve their milestones. I’ve been in a classroom where I’ve had to potty train and can say I was able to learn a few techniques. I’ve also been “long-term” in some sites where I was able to grow a bond with some of the children and celebrate their success. I do have a sibling with Asperger’s autism who is 15, so I have some experience with children on the spectrum.
Hello my name is Arianna & I am a child development graduate from CSULA. I have experience working with elementary, middle, and high school students primarily in school settings. I’ve worked for after school programming and provided enrichment activities and tutoring. I’m interested in babysitting even though I’ve had no experience. However, being in schools feels very much like it. Thank you for the opportunity!
Hello. I work for an elementary school, 10+ years. Babysat for 2 families before working for a school, volunteered at preschool when my kids were attending there. That’s when I decided to work with kids. I’m very comfortable with watching pets as well. I have two children, 23 and 18 year olds. They’re both grown up which is why I am expanding my joy of working with children and pets on my spare time.
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.”
Hi! My name is Maggie and I am a 26yr old NC native that’s been in LA for 1.5 years. I’ve worked with kids of all ages my whole life as a tutor, nanny, summer camp counselor, lifeguard, babysitter, and aunt of 4 toddlers. I have a full license and clean driving record. I love arts and crafts, cooking and doing anything outside.

"UrbanSitter has supported my needs for reliable and joyful sitters. Whether it be for work, recreation or last-minute emergencies, we've made wonderful relationships with local sitters who have become a part of our family!"

"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
