$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! If you’re looking for someone who is fun, energetic, loves to laugh, and will make sure your child is cared for in a positive way-you’ve found the right sitter! I promise to make your child’s days filled with memories to cherish. I provide activities like board games, arts & crafts, story times, and more. I have 8+ years of experience, reliable safe transportation, and can promise you your child is in the best care when they are under my care as a sitter. Also very comfortable with pets, I have 3 cats of my own. I look forward to meeting your little!

Courtney took care of my two children for two full weeks while I was away on vacation, and I genuinely cannot say enough good things about her. Leaving your kids for that long is never easy, but she made the entire experience completely stress-free. From day one, she was attentive, patient, and incredibly organized. She kept the kids on their routines, made sure they were engaged and happy, and handled everything with such calm confidence. I always felt informed and reassured, she communicated regularly, sent updates, and truly went above and beyond to make sure my kids felt safe, supported, and loved. When I came home, my children were not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and thriving. That says everything. Courtney is responsible, trustworthy, warm, and incredibly capable. Any family would be lucky to have her. I would 100% trust her again without hesitation, she is truly exceptional.

Hi! I recently joined urban sitter, I am 22 years old born and raised in Culver City. I have been nannying for 4 years now and have experience with kids ages 8 months to 11 years old. I have experience with twins and family’s with multiple kids. My responsibilities have been picking kids up from school/ activities, house manager, cooking/ meal prepping, keeping kids busy, and coming up with fun activities. I’m fluent in English and Spanish, I have my license and drive a reliable vehicle, and I love to bake. I also love all types of pets especially dogs.

Miranda arrived on time and jumped right in with my son and started playing games. She communicated with me when an issue came up and all was calm when we arrived back home. Lovely meeting her and we would love to have her back again!
