Stephanie $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’m a Certified Nursing Assistant with over 30 years of childcare experience, caring for children from newborns through teens. I’m also certified in CPR, First Aid, and BLS. I’m patient, nurturing, and dependable, and I enjoy helping children learn through reading, singing, games, and creative play. I also have experience caring for elderly women, including those living with dementia and Parkinson’s disease, as well as those receiving hospice care. I believe everyone deserves kindness, dignity, and compassionate attention. I’m happy to help with children’s meals, bottle washing, children’s laundry, and light housekeeping related to their care. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment while giving families peace of mind that their loved ones are well cared for.

Hi parents! A little about me: I'm an independent visual artist, musician, and dancer, and I like to write, read, study languages, spend time with animals, and travel. I graduated with a BA from University of San Francisco in 2014, as a Media Studies major with Spanish and Gender Studies minors. I am vaccinated for COVID-19 and promptly receive booster vaccinations. I have tons of experience with kids! I have used UrbanSitter since 2012, and have had the opportunity to work with kids of all ages - particularly infants as young as 3 months, toddlers, and 3-to-5-year olds. I’m great with older kids as well - in the past I have also coached cheerleading to ages 6-14, worked as a lifeguard and swimming instructor for children aged 6 months to 13 years, tutored middle school-aged kids in a variety of subjects, and worked in a candy store swarming with little ones. So I am comfortable and confident in babysitting for all ages! I am also CPR, First Aid, and Lifeguard certified. I am well-versed in composting/recycling and other environmental concerns, and am happy to teach children about eco-friendly practices. And most importantly - I love being around kids (and animals)! My favorite activities to do with kids are that of the artistic and adventurous variety...I am happy to spend an afternoon watercolor painting, exploring a new park, making crafts, baking vegan cookies, or navigating a museum. The more engaging the better - if it's a nice day I'd rather be outside taking a walk or traipsing on the beach! I am dedicated to nurturing your child's curiosity, creative-thinking, and adventurous spirit - as these are qualities in myself that I am happy to have harnessed at a young age. I am looking forward to hearing from you! Please contact me with any questions you may have!

Hi, and thanks for stopping by! I have many years of experience working with high-net-worth and high-profile families in Los Angeles. I’m TrustLine registered and have been thoroughly vetted by some of LA’s top nanny agencies. I currently work as a full-time, rotational live-in nanny in Montecito on a three-weeks-on, three-weeks-off schedule. During my off weeks, I’m happy to support local families needing occasional help. My schedule is guaranteed through the end of the year. I look forward to connecting!

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!
