Hi i have over 14 years of Nanny (babysitter) experience. I am a very active person, l like to walk, ride bicycles, play ball, jump etc... I'm seeking this job because working with children is something I am passionate about, I enjoy interacting with and taking care of them. I feel like I am a kid at heart, but of course with adult responsibility. Spanish is my first language. I can understand at a basic level English. And I have enough recommendations to give you. Thank you for you time :)

Hello. I have 10+ years working with kids from newborns to teenagers. I am also third oldest of seven kids, so some of that experience did come from watching my siblings growing up. I work in the food industry and have 14years experience. I have 2 elder dogs, they are a terrier mix that I had the opportunity of taking in as puppies (3-4 weeks,) they just turned 15 years, so I have experience with dogs, smaller dogs, but I love all dogs regardless. I mainly love baking and creating fun little treats but I do know my way around a kitchen as well. I’ve been a creative person my whole life, so both visual arts and performing arts are things I’m passionate about. I’m a very neat, organized and detail oriented person, so helping with household chores is something I can assist with as well. My fulltime job was affected by the LA fires (Jan. 2025) and I’ve yet to find another full time job to work in tandem with my part time job. I’m looking for something with a set schedule, and preferably something earlier in the day.

Hi parents, my name is Melissa. I am 30 and currently in school completing science classes and now applying to nursing programs. Because of this career path I’m choosing, I have sought after my CPR certification and an EMT certification. I’m certified by American Heart Association and certified by the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians, as well as the state of CA. I completed my EMT training at Citrus College. I am now working full-time as an EMT. I began babysitting when I was 11 years old, taking care of my little brother and any children belonging to family and friends. Not only have I babysat children, but I have coached and tutored them as well. I was previously employed by Jumpstart (AmeriCorps) to help teach preschool children in low income communities. Because of this, I took 2 child development courses and extensive training, which helped me to continue working with children through UrbanSitter since 2015. Side note: In my video, i accidentally said that I have experience with children between 2 and 3, but I have babysat children between the ages of 2 and 14. I sent in another video to correct it, but Urbansitter approved of the wrong video. For multiple family bookings: Rates listed below are for a single family household. If 2 or more families are sharing babysitting services, I ask the each have their own starting pay at the CA hourly minimum wage. Thank you for understanding.

Very friendly and experience in taking 18 months old
