Hi, my name is Sony and I love children. I moved out to LA from NY for acting. I’m offering child care, dog care, senior care, running errands and household services. I’ve worked with kids of all ages from 1 yrs old and older. Currently babysit for a few families. I’ve helped raise all of my little cousins and nieces (twins) from birth until they were teenagers. I would feed them, play with them, drop off/pick up from school, and put them to sleep. I started doing this when I was 10 yrs old. At 13 yrs old I started babysitting the neighbors kids that were 1 and 3 yrs old. I also worked at a daycare in NY taking care of 1 to 2.5 year olds. I was a nanny for a family in Los Angeles that had 2 kids that were 4 and 7. I made them dinner, gave them baths, cleaned up after them and put them to sleep. Children naturally love me. I’m very personable, empathetic, compassionate and fun. I am comfortable with senior care and dog care. I’ve taken care of my grandparents and friends of family that were seniors. I’ve house and dog sat for friends and family as well. I can also work as a household assistant. I’m open to doing other tasks as well since I have personal assistant experience.

“We love Sony! She was with our family consistently for 1.5 years, until our girls started school full time. She is timely, communicative, creative, and trustworthy. There is no one my girls like to ply with more.”

I am seeking employment as a Nanny because I love to help care and nurture your child with a routine of endless patience, fun, games, discipline, basically well rounded day that will keep your child busy but not bored. I am a very responsible, hard working, efficient, multitasking, caring person who just loves assisting people with everyday life. I make a point of making sure that everyone that is around me is taken care of that they are happy. I’m a mother of four adult children and grandmother to two boys. I was a caregiver for about four years to a wonderful family and switched to Nanny for the past four years. I have such great memories with them but my time with them ran its course. The mother decided to stay home with the boys and that’s why I’m looking forward to my new endeavor with a new future family.

“I'm happy to recommend my mom, who I've always known to be wonderful with children. I've seen firsthand how naturally caring and attentive she is with my little nephews, and it's clear how much she genuinely enjoys spending time with kids. The family she previously cared for always spoke so fondly of her, and from everything my mom shared, it was clear she had built a sweet bond with the children. It was such a special bond that the parents even made a custom book for the kids to remember her by. She has a very nurturing personality, and truly cares about the kids in her care. I don't have children of my own, but my cat Booger is the closest thing I have to a child, and my mom is incredibly sweet and loving with him too. Whenever we go away for a couple of days, she goes above and beyond to follow my very detailed instructions and make sure he's well cared for. I highly recommend her to any family looking for someone loving, dependable and experienced.”

Growing up, I always knew I wanted to work with children. I played volleyball for seven years and loved coaching younger players to help build their confidence. In high school, I tutored and assisted grades 2nd-5 through a program called Urban Compass. During COVID, I lived with my sister and helped care for her three children, supporting their daily routines and education. I’m now studying culinary arts in Los Angeles and worked with a wonderful family caring for two kids (ages 5 and 6). I handle school pick-ups, drop-offs in the parents’ car, and guide them through their evening routine. I also help with light cleaning, cooking meals, and baking sweet treats the kids love! I have two cuddly cats at home, so I’m very comfortable with pets too.

“She is great with kids and pets. She cleaned the house and made it spotless. She is very entertaining to my kid. My daughter loves her.”

Khate $20 per hour for 1 child

Hey! My name is Khate. I'm 34 years old. I recently decided to go back to school and I’m currently studying to become an Occupational Therapy Assistant. I have years of experience babysitting and full-time nannying. I’ve seen many of the kids I’ve watch grow up to be such lovely little human beings. It’s always been in my nature to take care of people. I love working with kids and help them build confidence as they grow up. My hobbies are listening and playing musical instruments like piano and guitar, drawing, singing, basically everything that has to do with arts! I love getting crafty and creative. I like going on hikes and discovering new coffee shops. I also have a background in Filmmaking and Photography so I like to capture little, beautiful moments.

"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)."
