Booked by 2 families in Alhambra, CA

Hello, my name is Jamie, and I am currently pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in Child and Adolescent Development. During my academic school year, I am apart of different on campus organizations but love to work and support youth as well. For the past 3 summers, I have been caregiving for children ages 1–12. My ultimate priority is to create a fun, safe, and supportive environment for all aged children. Though I recently joined the UrbansSitter community, I have been a child caregiver for different families. In my most recent babysitting job, I babysat a toddler, that I have been caregiving for two summers. I have experience building that long-term relationship with both the child and family. I would also love to incorporate the material and skills I’ve learned in my education, into my caregiving experience. I joined UrbanSitter to gain more hands on experience and continue growing as a caregiver. Outside of work and school, I love playing sports, going hiking, and spending time with my younger brothers. I would describe myself as a patient, dependable, energetic, and caring, person. My ultimate goals is for families to feel comfortable, safe, and supported when trusting me with their children.

Booked by 6 families in Alhambra, CA

Hello! My name is Meg, I live in Silverlake and am a dedicated caregiver and creative! I have 10+ years of babysitting experience. I have worked for babysitting services in the past like SitterCity and Weesit and had an incredibly positive experience - even being billed as 'the baby whisperer,' to parents. I am very focused of safety but love to have fun. I use my skills as a performer to play, entertain and bring out an imaginative spirit. I am enthusiastic but calm and incredibly reliable. I am one of five siblings and over 35 cousins - I have been a camp counselor, teacher of drama, music and improv and have directed children in plays. I'm not the kind of babysitter that just puts on a movie - I'm completely engaged.

Meghan did a great job! On time and the kids loved her. Hope to hire her again soon!

Booked by 2 families in Alhambra, CA

Hello! My name is Emily, and I am a caring, dependable, and energetic childcare professional with over 3 years of experience working with children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. As a preschool teacher, I have developed strong skills in creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where children can learn, grow, and feel supported. I am passionate about helping children reach developmental milestones through play-based learning, creative activities, outdoor exploration, reading, and positive encouragement. My classroom experience has taught me patience, organization, communication, and the ability to manage routines while meeting each child’s individual needs. Families describe me as trustworthy, responsible, and easy to communicate with. I understand the importance of building strong relationships with both children and parents, and I strive to provide reliable care that gives families peace of mind. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with homework help, school pick-ups and drop-offs, meal preparation, light housekeeping related to the children, and pet care. I love creating fun, meaningful experiences that help children feel confident, happy, and cared for. I am currently seeking a position where I can become a positive, supportive part of a family’s daily life.

Emily was reliable and let me know every step taken. Was on time and oh so so sweet. My son's therapist who was there as well told me Emily was a great sitter! I'm giving her 5 HUGE stars! Thank you so much for your help. :D

Hands-on experience caring for children, as a dedicated parent, which gives me deep empathy, patience, and understanding of children’s needs and routines. Patient and nurturing: I know how to meet people where they are—especially helpful for seniors or children who need extra time or support. Reliable and responsible: I show up consistently and take pride in doing work right. Service-minded and communicative: I genuinely care about others and know how to connect with them, whether it's a child needing reassurance or a senior needing companionship. Detail-oriented: I keep track of routines, medications, schedules, or special instructions without missing a beat.

Reliable, safe choice for help :)

Hi, my name is Laura, and I am originally from Colombia. Children bring so much joy, peace, and happiness into my life. I consider myself a very positive, energetic, happy, responsible, and caring person. I take pride in strong communication skills, a positive outlook, and creating meaningful connections with the families I work with. I have over 15 years of experience caring for children, and child safety is always my top priority. I strive to provide a warm, fun, and nurturing environment in every babysitting or caregiving assignment. My goal is for parents to feel completely at ease and confident knowing their children are in competent, loving, and reliable hands. In addition to working with children, I also have experience caring for seniors. I volunteered at a senior home, where I spent time assisting seniors and supporting caregivers with daily tasks. I also provided professional, compassionate care for an elderly woman with dementia, working closely with her family and ensuring she was treated with dignity, patience, and respect. This experience was incredibly meaningful to me and strengthened my caregiving skills across all ages. Academically, I have completed my Associate’s degree in Social & Behavioral Science and Health Science at Irvine Valley College. I am CPR certified, completed a Holistic Newborn Care Specialist workshop, and hold a Certified Nursing Assistant diploma from Colombia. I am currently attending Cal State LA, majoring in Public Health. I am also happy to assist with household needs such as running errands, helping with school homework, organizing daily routines, and driving children to and from activities. I have a California driver’s license with a clean driving record, and I am very comfortable driving children safely. I would love the opportunity to meet with you to see if I would be a great addition to your family. . Thank you so much for your time and consideration—I look forward to hearing from you.

Laura Salazar has been amazing with my two youngest children. She is incredibly kind, patient, and attentive, and my kids felt comfortable with her right away. As a parent, it gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I truly felt I could trust her completely around my children, which is everything when it comes to childcare. I highly recommend Laura to any family looking for someone reliable, caring, and trustworthy.

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."
