Note : Urbansitter changed my profile name from “Amy” to my official name HongMei. Please call me Amy. I have been vaccinated for Covid and just had my Flu shot. Sept 2021 UPDATE : Returning to child care after 18 months off due to COVID. Available MON & FRI from 8-6pm. Early Mornings, Evenings, and Weekends remain on a case-by-case basis. 1. CHILD CARETAKER: * I absolutely love kids. I’m one of those "born to be a child caretaker" type of women. I have been taking care of children since before my boys (5 & 7) were born. Once my boys started school full-time, I began increasing my hours. We relocated to my husband’s parents home in Rhode Island during Covid. We returned to LA to start the new school year, and I’m returning to child care full time. * I provide parents with the confidence their child(s) are safe, happy, and well cared for. Previously through word-of-mouth, I've aggressively used UrbanSitter since August. * I’ve babysat months-old infants, supervised older children, and everywhere in-between. I had a live-in Nanny when both my sons were born. From this experience, I learned 1st hand how an extra pair of hand can save a new-mom’s sanity. * Difficult and/or active kids are no issue. I’ve never found a child whom didn’t respond well to my care. My husband and I have NEVER spanked our children. Timeouts, communication, & firm directions are more than adequate to correct a child's behavior. I’m very patient & understanding with all children. 2. SAFETY: * I grew up with traditional Chinese medicine, and learned western medicine through my husband's family (doctors). * I took First Aid & CPR classes in 2013, and in the process of being re-certified * I look forward to keeping your child(s) safe, happy, and engaged until you return home. 3. AVAILABILITY : * YOUR home: WEEKDAYS : M-F 8am - 6pm. EVENINGS & WEEKENDS : Case-by-case basis. * MY home : 24/7. We have a guest bedroom also used as a kid’s playroom. I babysit some of my regulars at my home. Welcome to random last-minute inspections, our home is both VERY child friendly, and always spotless. 4. ABOUT ME : * I am 41 years old, from China, and moved to the USA in 2015. My husband is from Rhode Island, and we have been married since 2008. * We raise our boys in a multi-cultural home. I’m therefore cognizant, and empathetic towards differing views of raising children. I

My name is ElizaBess, I go by Bess. I am 20 years old, a current Registered Behavior Technician, have been sitting for family and friends for around 7 years now and I adore children. I’m very passionate about providing care to children with special needs, specifically autism. I have a pup, Daisy, who is my absolute best friend. In addition to childcare and RBT experience, I also have multiple years of experience in the customer service industry. I got my first job at 14, working at an ice cream shop so I know how to make exceptional treats. I think what makes me a great sitter is that I see the kids as just as much of a person with feelings, opinions and emotions as me. I’m not one to try to put the kids to sleep as fast as I can in order to have my own time. I genuinely enjoy spending time and learning/getting to know these kids in order to make a connection. Despite my age, I am not irresponsible or inexperienced nor am I overly strict or uptight. If you choose me as your sitter, I’m confident you’ll get pretty great reviews from your children:) I have experience in ABA and would also enjoy an opportunity to provide services similar to that.

“Very exceptional and phenomenal in her services. Treated my little kiddo like her own sibling and made him feel very special. Went over and beyond all that was expected as a care giver. Her professionalism is second to none. Definitely recommend her services. Thanks.”

Hi! I'm Kate, and I can help with a lot of things! In my work as a caregiver, educator, and developmental interventionist, I am deeply committed to helping children understand that they matter. In 2018 I earned a master’s degree in School Counseling which gave me in-depth training in child development, social-emotional learning, and behavioral support. After working for years in public schools in various advising/interventionist roles, I decided to apply my knowledge and skills in more flexible, hands-on settings — working directly with children and families in their homes. I encourage curiosity, creativity, and fun in my work with kids. My classroom experience has given me a lot of tools such as ways to make routines fun, communicating rules and expectations, using positive reinforcement, and tons of arts and crafts ideas. Through patient guidance and empathy, I help children build their communication skills and practice emotional regulation so they can thrive socially and academically. Each child is unique, and each one deserves to feel confident in their ability to learn and grow in their own way- I can help them with that! My ultimate goal is to be a positive and empathetic presence in your home. How can I help?

“Kate is very creative and patient. Our girls love her!”

Hello, my name is Roksanda. I’m a responsible, reliable, and flexible nanny with years of childcare experience. I’m currently working as a substitute teacher for LAUSD. I have First Aid and CPR certifications. I’m a non-smoker and have a clean driving record. I enjoy working with children, and am committed to promoting children’s physical, mental, and emotional development in collaboration with parents. I believe I’m a great fit for caring for your child as I am patient, caring, and compassionate. Thank you

“Roksanda was fantastic with our two kids. They enjoyed engaging in activities with her. She was on time and communicative and went above and beyond, washing dishes and folding laundry when she wasn't asked to.”

"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)."
