Hi, my name is Karlee I am currently a junior in college at Harvard University where I study Psychology and Government and also am on the Women’s Basketball team. I grew up in a large household of 6 kids, where I grew up taking care of younger siblings and cousins. I currently have 7 nieces and nephews who I have experience taking care of, ages ranging from 1-8. While also having experience babysitting a 10-12 year old for two years! I have been an official dog sitter for nearly 3 years and love watching kids and pets.
Hello! I am a PhD Student in Sociology, where I focus on the sociology of childhood and education. Beyond my research, I have had lots of experience working with kids - casually as a babysitter, but also more formally at a variety of summer camps. I am new to Los Angeles (from London, England) and have enjoyed exploring all the wonderful parks and enjoying the sun. Hope I can do more with your child(ren) sometime soon :)
“Kids immediately warmed to Lara and had such fun playing with her! Will definitely hire again. ”
Hi! My name is Tranell. I am caring, reliable, detail oriented, patient loving person, who overall enjoys helping. I recently graduated MRI school. I understand routines, patience, and creating a safe, calm environment for children. I have hands-on experience supporting autistic children, which has taught me the importance of consistency, understanding, and individualized care. I’m very detail-oriented, patient, and compassionate, and I always prioritize safety and clear communication. I’m comfortable with pets. I am also very knowledgeable, wise and helpful in many areas. I would love to be a help to you, as a support system would. I genuinely love being a woman families can rely on. I believe children thrive when they are surrounded by a strong, caring village, and parents do too. I understand how demanding parenthood can be, and I’m passionate about helping create smoother days and a supportive environment for the entire family. I’d love to support your family with reliable, attentive care you can feel confident about.
Hi, my name is Ursula and I'm an experienced nanny with 10 years on and off and 3 years with one high-end family. I have toddler experience and care for kids ages 8, 9, and 11. I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, school drop-off/pick-up, and meal prep. Looking for extra days Mondays, Thursdays, and every other Saturday.
I have an extensive background in caring for children of all ages, and I genuinely enjoy creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment for every child I look after. I’m patient, responsible, attentive, and adaptable to each child’s unique personality, needs, and developmental stage. I love keeping kids engaged through creative activities, games, outdoor play, and meaningful interactions while also making sure their routines, safety, and well-being always come first. I’m someone who brings positive energy, warmth, and a fun personality into the home, and I enjoy building genuine connections with the children and families I work with.

"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."
