Hi! I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. Professional experience includes: 6 years in personal nannying, 10 years in childcare, and 12 years in teaching dance for children. I have extensive experience with infants and toddlers. College graduate and certificate in ASL interpreting and childhood development. I can provide references! My responsibilities have included: keeping a steady sleep/feeding schedule and bedtime routine, encouraging developmentally appropriate milestones, driving to/from school and after-school activities, and in-home tutoring. I have volunteered at a local organization for infant and toddler care for 5 years, worked in daycare at family camps for elementary school ages for 5 years, and worked with kids with special needs. I have had pets all of my life and have worked as a dog walker. Happy to work with big dogs. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands.
“Sarah is the best! She has worked for us for the past two years and has been such an important part of life for our family. She has everything a parent might wish for in a babysitter. She is very responsible, makes good decisions and communicates very clearly. My kid adores spending time with her because she is so playful and creative, always making up fun games and always following his lead. Sarah is very adept though at holding good boundaries, finding teachable moments and creative ways to handle any of my kids more challenging behavior. I could go on and on...... if you are here looking at her profile, you are lucky and have found a real gem!”

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*
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.
“Ih she's wonderful! Good energy, on time, great communication. My kid just laughed and laughed! She plays well with the kids. So glad to have found her.”

"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."
