*I am fully vaccinated and boosted.* - I do not mind working at late hours into the night and for you to extend your hours if needed. - I have been with UrbanSitter for 9 years and have babysat for children ranging from infant to 10 years old. I used to also volunteer at a child care, consecutively for 4 years, over the summer where I looked after 5-7 children at a time and helped with play and reading time, arts & crafts, snack and lunchtime, and naptime; these children's ages ranged from 6 months to 4 years. - I enjoy caring for children and engaging with them through reading, baking and going on outings such as the park or beach. I also do not mind having animals in the home while I am babysitting. POLICIES: -RATES: I negotiate my rates based on the expectations and requirements of the job.

Hi! I'm Lesley. I have experience caring for children of various ages and have had the opportunity to work with many wonderful families over the years, including several repeat families. I enjoy building positive relationships with both children and parents and creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids can feel comfortable and engaged. Over the past several years, I've built a professional career in business and operations, which has strengthened my organization, communication, problem-solving, and responsibility skills. I bring those same qualities to every family I work with and pride myself on being dependable, patient, and attentive. I especially enjoy spending quality time with children through games, crafts, outdoor activities, reading, and helping with homework or daily routines. My goal is always to make children feel supported while giving parents peace of mind when they're away. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, staying active, exploring Los Angeles, and spending time at home with my two cats. I'm also very comfortable around pets and am happy to help families with cats and dogs as needed. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your family, and I would love the opportunity to help. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to connecting with you!

Hi families! My name is Catherine. I am currently pursuing my bachelor's degree, but I love working with children on the side, as I have always loved working with youth. I understand how instrumental it is for children to have someone patient, supportive, and caring to support their growth and well-being. I have been caregiving for children, from infants to preteens (8m-12y) for about 5 years now. I used to work as a Camp Counselor during the summers, which taught me multitasking, patience, and problem-solving, amongst several valuable lessons. I have also grown up babysitting outside the app, building valuable and meaningful connections with several families and caring for their little ones! My responsibilities consisted of organizing and maintaining each child's schedule, organizing playdates, assisting with homework, organizing and providing creative projects and arts and crafts, assisting with light housekeeping duties, and maintaining bedtime routines! I understand that choosing a caregiver for your children is a significant decision, and I take that trust very seriously. My goal is to create an environment where children feel safe, comfortable, and encouraged to be themselves. Additionally, I am offering pet care and household services. I am extremely comfortable with dogs/cats, as I grew up around them. Can work around their diets, schedules, playtime, and routines! Grew up with three very large American Bulldogs, so size is not an issue for me. I enjoy playing with both cats and dogs of all breeds! My ultimate goal is to ensure families and individuals can rely on someone to look after their pets, little ones, or receive a helping hand with household services! I am also open to interviews if needed. Thank you for your consideration!

Hi, My name is Danae I’m 30 years from Los Angeles. I am Legal Assistant, Case Manager, and Notary for a personal injury firm with a passion for children & childcare. I’ve been a nanny for about 15+ years, I started by nannying for twins and began working for other friends and family’s children as well.

If I sit for your family, I'd greatly appreciate it if you'd rate me on my services to you. Hi! I’m a caring and dependable childcare provider with over 15 years of experience working with children from infancy through early elementary age. I’m currently studying Child Development and work on call as a substitute Teacher Assistant with children ages 0–5. I have a strong background in infant and toddler care and am comfortable with all parts of daily routines, including feedings, naps, diapering, potty training, and bedtime. I’ve cared for up to four children at once and enjoy supporting sibling relationships in a calm, positive way. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, understood, and supported. I aim to create a fun, nurturing environment while also following family routines and expectations closely. I’m reliable, patient, and communicative, and I love helping parents feel confident and at ease while they’re away.
