Hello! Looking for a caregiver who naturally connects with your little ones and furry family members, and who brings years of trusted, loving experience? That’s me! My name is Deborah, and caregiving has long been something I’m deeply drawn to and truly passionate about. I’m currently working as a full-time nanny for a wonderful family through UrbanSitter, and I’m so grateful that this has become my professional career. Friends, families, and clients have consistently trusted me with their most precious children and beloved pets, knowing they’re in caring, responsible, and attentive hands. I focus on creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel happy, supported, and secure. Whether it’s imaginative play, helping with routines, or simply sharing calm, comforting moments, I’m dedicated to being a positive and reliable presence in your child’s day. Although I’m committed full-time during weekdays, I’m available for evening care and Saturdays, and I’d love to support your family whenever you need extra help. Please feel free to reach out for date nights, weekend coverage, or special occasions. I understand the deep trust families place in their caregivers, and building a strong, respectful partnership with your family is very important to me. I’m a dedicated listener, quick learner, and someone who always strives to provide dependable, high-quality care. If you’re looking for someone who feels like a natural extension of your family, I’d love to connect! Please send me a message, and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can. If I don’t respond immediately, I’m likely caring for a precious little one. 😊

Hi there, I’m Avalon! I am an actor and recently moved to Los Angeles from Manhattan where I attended NYU’s Grad Acting program at Tisch School of the Arts. I spent nearly a decade in Manhattan, where I first moved in 2015 to pursue my undergraduate degree at Fordham University. Soon after my arrival, I started professionally nannying around Manhattan and Brooklyn. Throughout my 10+ years of experience, I have provided for families with a variety of needs. From taking care of a newborns, to after school care, to assisting in household management, I have done it all. I have found that my artistic pursuits as well as my experience in teaching theater school-age children complement my child care work extremely well. I’m known for bringing a lot of joy and play into my time with kids. Further, intuition, imagination and creativity come naturally to me, which allows me to come up with thoughtful and creative solutions for conflict resolution and other obstacles. Feel free to contact me if you think we could be a great fit! I look forward to learning about your family, and sharing more about my experience and approach. All best, Avalon :)

“As brand-new parents using UrbanSitter for the first time, we were naturally a bit anxious when our friend tested positive for COVID and couldn't babysit, but Avalon stepped in on less than 48 hours' notice and put us completely at ease. She is exceptionally friendly, reliable, and communicative, bringing a warm, comforting demeanor that instantly gave us peace of mind. Even though our daughter Kylie slept through the night, knowing she was in such thoughtful and capable hands made all the difference for our evening out. We are so grateful for her help and will definitely be hiring her again!”

Booked by 90 families in Huntington Park, 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.”

Hi, I’m Wendy! I’m a dedicated babysitter with over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages, including those with ADHD and Autism. I have a strong understanding of RIE teaching methods, which help foster independence, confidence, and a nurturing environment for children to thrive. Originally from Los Angeles, I went to school for Business but my true passion has always been working with kids. I love incorporating outdoor activities, art, and cooking into my babysitting style to create engaging and fun experiences. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and enriching environment for every child I care for. I’m also a big dog lover, so pets are always a welcome part of the experience! I’d love to connect with your family—feel free to reach out with any questions!
