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! ”
I’m a responsible and dependable caregiver who enjoys creating a safe and positive environment. I’m happy to help with crafts, reading, games and bedtime routines while keeping things calm and structured. I’m also comfortable preparing simple meals and helping keep things tidy. I’m comfortable with pets and have several years of experience with both dogs and cats. I’m happy to help with pet care as well. My personality is calm, attentive and reliable. I prioritize safety and clear communication with parents.
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.
I love children! I helped raise my (fraternal twin brothers). I have a reputation for my warm, caring nature, and for being reliable and trustworthy. I have been a nanny (in Nashville) to an infant and to a toddler and school aged child (also in Nashville). I have also been a nanny/tutor to a school-aged girl in Los Angeles, and a special-needs school-aged boy in Los Angeles. My main profession is writing, but I am seeking a side hustle to give me a chance to spend time around kids and also to supplement my writing work income since AI is stealing some of my work. = ) I have GREAT references!

"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
