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
“Kate was amazing with our 2months old daughter. Definitely recommend and will for sure have her helping us again. ❤️🫶🏼 ”
Hello ! ! ! Graduated from the University of Alabama in 2019. I work for a real estate tech start up during the week. I have always enjoyed babysitting and love picking up a babysitting gig here and there. It has always been a fun thing for me and a great way to meet families! I began my babysitting career in middle school and since then I have worked as a mothers help, date night sitter, summer break nanny, and weekend overnight sitter. For 3 years of high school I worked at a local yoga studio in childcare, and spent three summers as a camp counselor. I have a wide range of experience with all ages throughout the past 12+ years of working for a wide range of families!
Hi, I’m Michelle! I’m an experienced nanny and household assistant who has cared for children of all ages (from newborns 4 days old to teens). Through UrbanSitter, I’ve worked with 15+ families, completing 100+ bookings that have included recurring schedules, 8+ hr shifts, overnights, travel support, and last-minute care. Families value my ability to smoothly manage siblings and multi-age groups while keeping routines balanced and fun. I try to be a calm, reliable presence as well as flexible and communicative. I support children’s daily routines while keeping them engaged in meaningful play and activities. I like to offer choices so kids feel heard while staying within safe, supportive boundaries, and I aim to keep days active, balanced, and screen-free. I love arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, and hands-on activities, and I’m also happy to incorporate Spanish into daily routines! My style is adaptable, and I’m happy to follow each family’s preferences! I’m glad to help with errands, driving, and household tasks, and I’m also available for travel, events, and backup care. I’m CPR/First Aid certified, a safe driver with two Evenflo Revolve car seats (can be rear or forward facing), and comfortable caring for pets as part of the family’s routine. Whether you need regular care, date nights, travel support, or a reliable backup, I’m here to help and make things easier for your family!
“Michelle is wonderful! She was punctual and so easy to talk to. She immediately began to engage with my son. When she left after the initial encounter he turned to me and said, “I really like her.” ”
Hey there, my name is Jenny. Nice to meet you! I have been working with Urbansitter since 2013, and I have made meaningful connections with families over the years. Though I’m currently pursuing a doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, I still find joy in babysitting when my schedule allows. I’m known for being patient, goofy, and communicative. My professional background is rooted in hospitality and technology, but I’ve always had a passion for working with kids in diverse settings. I coach volleyball and volunteer as a camp counselor at The Painted Turtle Camp. I’ve also had the privilege of tutoring elementary school kids via Reading Partners and mentoring with Access Youth Academy. Each of these experiences has enriched my ability to connect with kids and support their growth in fun and creative ways.
“Jennifer was very nice and our 3 boys really liked spending the evening with her! She was professional and timely and even honored our request to speak Spanish with our children while she was babysitting them. Would definitely use again as a babysitter.”
