Hello! My name is Jezenia and I’m an artist and musician who recently returned to Los Angeles after spending 10 years on the East Coast. I have 9+ years of childcare experience in both professional and in-home settings, including private babysitting, after-school programs, weekend and evening care, online and in-person tutoring, and summer art and music camps. I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages, from infants through teens (8 months–18 years). I hold a degree in Psychology with a strong foundation in child development, which complements my hands-on experience. I enjoy incorporating creative activities, music, art, reading, homework support, and cooking into my caregiving. I’m a reliable, warm, and empathetic caregiver who prioritizes safety, communication, and creating a calm, engaging environment for children. References available upon request.I look forward to connecting with your family!

Maria $28 per hour for 1 child

About Me Hi! My name is Maria and I have over 5 years of experience working as a nanny. I truly enjoy caring for children and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they can learn, grow, and feel supported. I have experience caring for children of different ages and can assist with daily routines, meal preparation, homework, transportation, bedtime, and engaging activities. I always strive to meet each child’s unique needs with patience and kindness. In addition to childcare, I also provide household assistance, including light housekeeping, organizing, laundry, meal preparation, and running errands. I am also comfortable caring for pets and making sure they receive the attention and care they need. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors. I love going to parks, relaxing at the beach, and participating in outdoor activities. I believe staying active and spending time in nature brings positive energy and creativity to every day. I am reliable, punctual, responsible, and attentive to each family’s individual needs. My goal is to provide dependable care and create a positive, trustworthy relationship with both children and parents. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family!

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
