Hi! My name is Jenny and I have over 15 years experience in childcare. I graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago and worked in the children's department of a library for several years. I did storytime, crafts, and helped children with homework and research at the library. I also love painting and drawing and enjoy teaching children how to draw, instilling in them my passion for the arts. I'm a lifelong bookworm, love reading with children, and hope I encourage their own love of books. Books, art, and a great role model can enrich a child's life and watching a child's development is very rewarding. I have worked primarily as a nanny the last five years since moving to Los Angeles. The wonderful families and children I've worked with and grown close to has sustained me in LA. I'm lucky to have created a network of families I babysit for and to have a role in their children's lives. I have the best parents in the world and I model the selfless, gentle, and devoted way I was raised. Being a parent is the hardest job in the world and I will do anything I can to make a parent's life easier.
•Experienced Babysitter who responsibly cares for children and encourages fun, creative activities to aid their growth. •Focused on fostering curiosity and skill development while adhering to parents' preferred routines. •Committed to maintaining a clean, secure, and organized environment.

Hi families! My name is Allison, and I am currently a TK Special Education Teacher. I earned my Special Education teaching credential through CSUN, and when I am not teaching, I am available for babysitting and childcare support. I have over 18 years of experience working with children of different ages and needs, including children with disabilities and developmental delays. I am CPR certified, fingerprinted, and have completed background clearance through LAUSD. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish, have my own car, and am comfortable helping with routines, play, learning activities, and creating a safe, caring environment. I truly enjoy working with children and supporting families, and I would love the opportunity to help with your childcare needs.
“Allison was great. Fully trusted her and felt comfortable. She was very fun with our 5 year old. Will definitely hire again. ”
Hi there, I’m Avalon! I am an actor and recently moved to Los Angeles from Manhattan where I attended NYU’s Grad Acting program at Tisch School of the Arts. I spent nearly a decade in Manhattan, where I first moved in 2015 to pursue my undergraduate degree at Fordham University. Soon after my arrival, I started professionally nannying around Manhattan and Brooklyn. Throughout my 10+ years of experience, I have provided for families with a variety of needs. From taking care of a newborns, to after school care, to assisting in household management, I have done it all. I have found that my artistic pursuits as well as my experience in teaching theater school-age children complement my child care work extremely well. I’m known for bringing a lot of joy and play into my time with kids. Further, intuition, imagination and creativity come naturally to me, which allows me to come up with thoughtful and creative solutions for conflict resolution and other obstacles. Feel free to contact me if you think we could be a great fit! I look forward to learning about your family, and sharing more about my experience and approach. All best, Avalon :)
“Absolutely loved Avalon! She was great with both of my kids and she had a wonderful personality!!!! Will use again very soon!”

"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."
