My name is Markie and I am a 29 year-old with a B.A. in Legal Studies and Politics. I have just completed law school and I am currently awaiting CA Bar results. I am the middle child of 5 children and have always played a huge role in looking after my siblings. I have worked as an au pair or live-in nanny and tutor in Italy for two young children. I absolutely love children and even took several child development classes in my undergraduate career. I am also CPR certified. I have also been told I can make some amazing Mexican food dishes!

“Markie! Is absolutely amazing. We will definitely be reaching out to her again. She was great with my kiddo and super friendly!”

Hello! I work full-time as a Mental Health Therapist for children and adults. I have a Masters degree in Social Work from Columbia University. Prior to that, I attended and graduated from Pace University where I majored in Psychology. I have a lot of experience working with children as I have been a part time nanny before. I have babysat children from newborn age to 15 years old. I have experience changing diapers, making baby formula, playing with children, reading and helping them write and just doing activities with them. I have experience doing pick ups and drop offs and also babysitting multiple children at once. I also have experience with bathtime and bed time routine and can help prepare meals if needed. I love babysitting because it has helped me become more patient with children and I love being around children because they are just full with life and happiness. I love to travel, do yoga and dance classes and read and hang out with friends! I am someone who you can always count on to be there for you and help you out!

$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 90 families in Cerritos, CA

Hi! I am 29 years old, have an AA in American Sign Language/Interpreter Training and am a behavior technician. I speak fluent English and Spanish and am still learning to fully communicate in ASL. I get along with kids, due to the many in my family, and love to get creative and fun with them. I get my experience from babysitting children of family and friends, and have cared for kids of all ages, especially since starting on urbansitter. I like dancing, karaoke, drawing, painting, and so much more. I accept cash and zelle, but will accept getting paid through the app if you prefer, just let me know. I am very communicative with parents and guardians and send constant updates. For pet sitting, the rate is negotiable. I love all animals! I have dogs and a turtle of my own, as well as provide care for other pets of family and friends. I volunteered at an animal hospital for a year and gained some experience with sick and critical patients, as well as giving medications. I also gained experience from my own dogs with paralysis, blindness, ear infections, and more. I love babysitting! Let me know if there's anything else you want to know about me and I will get back to you ASAP.

“Five stars would definitely recommend to any family looking for someone with a wonderful approach to both neurotypical and neurodivergent children, very reliable, communicative, and professional. Vanessa was great with our five year- old & my daughter felt immediately comfortable with her, & my seven-year-old nonverbal son did just fine all night long. Vanessa is very experienced in handling children on the spectrum and taking the patience, understanding and care, which is something I look for in every Babysitter I hire . They all did so well together, I really look for someone who has experience with neurodivergent children and Vanessa was five stars all the way I really appreciate how she engaged she was with my babies. We will definitely be having Vanessa over again.”

Nice to meet you! I’m Kate, a 37 year old career nanny who moved from Chicago to LA in 2021 for a jet-setting/bi-coastal, travel heavy nanny position, and once the position ended, I decided to stay out here permanently. I live in Orange County with my girlfriend, and work M-Th, 7a-7p, in Studio City. My previous position was Jan ‘23- Nov ‘24. My background has always been in early childhood, and majored in early childhood education in college. I have years of experience with all age ranges and backgrounds: from kids who thrive in group settings to kids that do best with individualized, 1:1 care to kids who are neurodivergent. My first and top priority is the safety and wellbeing. Second is play, exploration, imagination, creativity, and seeing kids explore based on what they are into and things they find interesting. Third is, in my day-to-day, I take a child-centered approach. Including, but not limited to: time outside, walks, going to playgrounds, and finding activities within the home that the kids enjoy. My experience includes: working as a in-home support worker with neurodivergent kids, have worked at 3 early childhood centers (both as an assistant teacher and lead teacher); and all my experience has been from newborn to school age. In my free time: I love checking out new restaurants, adventuring the outdoors with my girlfriend, finding new trails to hike on AllTrails, the beach, and weekend trips

“Punctual, professional, and great experience.”
