Booked by 5 families in Studio City, CA

Hi families! My name is Celeste, and I earned my bachelor's degree in Elementary and Special Education from Grand Canyon University. I'm an aspiring teacher who is passionate about making a positive impact on children's lives, supporting their growth, and helping them feel confident, valued, and understood. I have years of experience working with children from preschool through 12th grade, including children with diverse learning needs and abilities. I'm also fully bilingual in English and Spanish! I'm patient, nurturing, responsible, dependable, and energetic. My priority is to create a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable, respected, and supported. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities, encouraging creativity, helping with homework, and maintaining daily routines. I'm comfortable with pets, especially dogs, and happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, and errands. Childcare is about building meaningful connections and being a positive role model. I value open communication with parents and understand how important it is to feel confident that your children are in caring, trustworthy hands. I'd love the opportunity to support your family and make a positive difference in your children's lives!

“Celeste did a great job when I needed a last-minute sitter for my eight-year-old. I’m always very reluctant to hire last-minute sitters, but she made us feel right at ease from the beginning. She was attentive, and my son really liked her. She’s also an awesome person. My sisters and I really enjoyed talking to her while we were getting ready for our night out! ”

Hello my name is Reina. I have a BA in Psychology. I have close to 10 years of working experience with children ranging from infants to school-aged children. I am currently an educator who teaches different ages in elementary schools. I was also a behavior technician who worked with children with different developmental disabilities. I enjoy teaching and seeing children succeed.

“Reina was super friendly, great with the kids, and so kind! I appreciated how flexible she was with our ever-changing schedule. I have a neurodivergent child, and she got along with him so well! She played games with them, helped my son build a cardboard house...she engaged them in fun activities and ensured they went to bed on time and with a nice reading session. Our boys loved her and wanted to know when she would be back!”

Aside from having taken care of my four daughters and nieces over the years, I most recently helped my daughter adjust back to her work routine and cared for my granddaughter on a regular basis, both day and nights. I am great with children and see each as my own, and am open to rules set by the parents and abide by them. I have pets at home, so caring for pets is nothing new to me, as well as seniors. I also take care of all of our household chores, so that's also something I can do if requested.

“Wonderful experience, she’s cared for my 15 month old and I couldn’t recommend her enough. She’s attentive, and my daughter adores her. My daughter is a picky eater, so its been tough, but her patience has been key. She’s helped with chores around the house too.”

Hello! I bring decades of experience to your family as I am a mother, and I babysit my nieces and nephews. I am well versed in STEM-based teaching curriculum and arts-based learning. I hold a UCLA degree and am fully fluent in English and Spanish. I am also a trained birth doula to support new parents. I also successfully raised my son, who is now in college. Aside from babysitting, I am willing to run errands and do your family’s grocery shopping. I am community-minded and recently won an award from the LA County for Human Relations - LA vs Hate project, I love to laugh, teach children how to read, write and do crafts and art projects. I can also teach your children some basic capoeira moves. I am willing to commute kids to school and prepare healthy meals. I also love being around elders from your family and am willing to run errands for them as well. Feel free to reach out and I’d be happy to send you my resume.

Hi! I'm Darya - an international student from Belarus. I have lived in the US for 4 years, and before UrbanSitter I cared for pets (Rover.com) and worked as a barista at Universal Studios. Back at home, I spent more than 10 years caring for my younger cousins. So I can be relied upon with kids of all ages from 3 to 15 :) I would describe myself as a cheerful and calm person, open to feedback and willing to make friends with kids. As for my availability, right now I am pretty much always free for several months! Please reach out if you need any of the following: babysitter, petsitter, household assistant. 👼🏻 I can cook, clean, run errands, create fun activities for kids, sing, draw, study and play with them. 🦮 I am also experienced in walking dogs and watching cats. Let me know if you have any further questions and I hope to meet you soon ❤️

“Darya responded quick our communication and was punctual on the day of. She is kind, and my son (5 y) loved her!!! We will definitely use her services again and highly recommend ☺️”

"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!"
