Hello! I enjoy being around children and would love to help your family out for the day. I have been babysitting since high school and have been using Urbansitter for six years now. Other involvement working with children includes Bible School, church nursery, 4-H, multiple costume character positions, and a karaoke host for children at an amusement park. I have a college education and am a hard worker. I take pride in my promptness as well as my patience when dealing with tantrums. My approach when babysitting is to try and engage children in games or reading, instead of electronics. I also like to do arts and crafts projects as a form of interaction. I would like to be a role model for your child. I don't drink or do drugs and I'm not into the party scene, so you don't have to worry about your child being exposed to any poor behavior. For those of you that feel comfortable, I have memberships for Descanso Gardens and Huntington Gardens and can take your child for free. I am CPR and first aid certified. Feel free to ask me any questions. I'm excited to work for you and meet your children! I have a Golden Retriever that tags along to my regular families. If you would like her to join, feel free to ask. She's very calm and great with children. She has experience with babies and children with special needs. She's also great with all other pets and loves making new friends. If you need more reassurance about her behavior, please check out my reviews from other families. Thank you! If you would like information on my other services, just ask and I will happily provide background and references! I have 2yrs of caregiver experience. NOTE: Pet fees will differ from my child rates and will be based on the need. Thank you! Another Note: If you must cancel on me for any reason, please do it at least 1hr in advance. I typically arrive to locations 30min early, just to make sure traffic doesn't delay me from being on time. Also, if you're canceling, consider the fact that I have already passed up multiple jobs. The more notice you give, the more time I have to find other work. Thanks for your time!

“Ashley was great! Thank you so much!”

Booked by 3 families in Stevenson Ranch, CA

I have worked in a school setting for 9 years now working as a teacher assistant, a behavior therapist one on one for children with Autism, and providing services in home settings in addition to school settings. I also babysat for over a year full time while going to university. I graduated with my bachelors in psychology and my masters in counseling/clinical counseling. At this time, I am currently a high school counselor working full-time and have some time during the week in the evenings or on some weekends to babysit. I prefer picking up shifts occasionally. I am organized, responsible, trustworthy, punctual, empathetic, loving, friendly, and extremely playful. My empathetic nature has always benefited me when working with kids because they always gravitate towards me. I’m the oldest cousin in the family, so I was always in charge of taking care of my cousins when they were little. I’m a great caregiver because I like to ensure that everyone is safe.

“Zulma was fantastic! She was punctual, attentive, and followed all instructions perfectly. She was amazing with our 4-month-old son and even engaged wonderfully with our 5-year-old daughter, who she wasn’t there to watch. Highly recommend her!”

I have at least 5 years of babysitting experience. I can also help with Light Housekeeping and Cooking/Cleaning. I have a license and I am safe and reliable. Being a child caregiver/babysitter is something that means so very much to me! I love children and have completed a volunteer internship with Kids Hope USA through Christian Association and Eagle Rock Elementary. I volunteered in my small home church before it closed during the pandemic as the Co-Lead Teacher in a Sunday School program. I enjoy singing, reading, listening to stories, sharing experiences with others and encouraging children to do their best!

“My daughter said she really likes Jessica. Very friendly and patient. She read books and play games with her. Recommended! ”

Millie 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Millie and I am a professional nanny with more than 12 years of experience, specializing in caring for children aged btw newborns to toddlers. My caregiving philosophy focuses on fostering independence and creativity through hands-on activities, outdoor play, and structured routines.In my previous roles, I have managed tasks like meal preparation, potty training, while ensuring a safe and positive environment. I am fully CPR and First Aid certified, have a clean driving record, I love supporting busy parents and helping children thrive. I would welcome the opportunity to chat and see how I can support your family! I’m mom too my son is 13 years old. My last job was 6 years ago with a beautiful family with 2 kids of different ages. I had to leave this family after 4 years because the pandemic hit and I had to start working in other kind of job,

“Millie is one of the only people in the LA area that I would trust to take care of my children. Millie first started with our family after the birth of my first born in 2016. From the infant stage, Millie had all the skills and qualifications to ensure my child was cared for, safe, and loved. We felt very comfortable being full time working parents leaving our child at home with Millie. She slowly became part of our family. We had another child shortly afterword and Millie’s ability to manage a toddler and an infant was truly unmatched. Helping with keeping the house tidy and managing their meals- we were always amazed at her natural ability to manage our home and keep our kids loving their time with her. We trusted Millie to take the boys on walks, to the park, bathing them and all the other situations that came up she was always professional and respectful. During the pandemic we had to say goodbye to our over 4 year relationship. She brought such joy to our kids and was there for so many milestones. I truly recommend Millie as she has been a trustworthy and reliable source of childcare for us.”

Cameron $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi. I’m Cameron, an athlete and attend Valencia High School. I have a natural love and care for children. I’ve been taking care of kids from the ages of newborn to 10 years old for several years. I have regularly cared for many infants for local families in Santa Clarita and can provide references. Since I am an athlete, I am hands on with the children and engaging them in active games and play that they enjoy. I love cooking and making meals or snacks for the kids I watch. I have taken care of children as after school care , weekends and also nighttime events when parents are out. Since I am a competive athlete as a a softball player and a former equestrian horse jumper, I have a high level of responsibility and naturally do the right thing to care for the children under my watch. I look forward to meeting you and your kids soon!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
