Booked by 1 family in East Irvine, CA

My background includes lifelong, hands-on caregiving experience. I started babysitting at age 13 and helped raise my younger siblings, who are now teenagers. Through this, I’ve developed a unique relationship with kids—they respect me, feel safe with me, and also find me fun and engaging. I’m playful, know how to make kids laugh, and keep them entertained, while also providing structure, support, and emotional safety. I currently live in a household with a 2- and 4-year-old, so I’m very comfortable with toddlers, routines, and day-to-day childcare needs. I’m patient, attentive, and naturally nurturing, and children tend to connect with me easily. I also have strong experience with pets and household support. I have a 1.5-year-old mini dachshund who is extremely gentle and great with kids, and if allowed, I’d love to bring her along occasionally. Overall, I’m dependable, warm, and genuinely enjoy caring for children, pets, and families, creating an environment where everyone feels supported and safe.

Elizabeth $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Liz! I have a bachelor’s degree from UCLA, and I’m currently in the process of applying to graduate school for Clinical Psychology. I’ve always enjoyed being in supportive roles, whether that’s caring for kids, being there for older family members, or taking care of pets. Over the years, I’ve spent time caring for children of different ages in both personal and work settings. I have several years of nannying and babysitting experience and for the past decade, I’ve worked in the entertainment industry as a talent manager, supporting young clients and their families. I also recently helped care for my grandfather during his battle with end stage Alzheimer’s, which really shaped how I think about patience and being present. Animals have always been part of my life. I grew up with both cats and dogs and still pet sit and house sit for friends and neighbors whenever they need a hand. I’m calm, dependable, and genuinely enjoy being helpful wherever I can, whether that means spending time with little ones, supporting seniors, keeping a household running smoothly, or making sure pets are well cared for.

"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)."
