Hi! I'm Destiny! I've been babysitting and nannying for 11 years and have experience with overnights, full-time and part-time care, traveling, nanny pods, occasional babysitting, and watching over multiples (twins/ triplets) :) I have experience caring for all ages, from newborns to 15 years old, with the majority of my experience focused on newborns through 6-year-olds. This past year, I worked as a long-term Kindergarten substitute, and I'm currently working toward my teaching credential and Master's in Education. I enjoy working with children and getting to know their little personalities while building genuine, trusting connections. I'm patient, attentive, reliable, and responsible, while still being energetic and engaging. I love spending time outdoors, doing crafts, visiting museums, going on bike rides, and creating opportunities for kids to learn, have fun and just be kids. There’s no better feeling than hearing “you’re the best babysitter ever.” Looking forward to connecting with your family!

Destiny immediately and naturally connected with all 3 of my kids ages 8-3, boys and girls. She jumped right in helping out with everything they needed while also being super fun with them. Our 8 yr old girl was sad when she was leaving and asked when she’d be back! Highly recommend

Booked by 35 families in El Segundo, CA

Hi, I had two wonderful back to back long term jobs. Those jobs ended when the child started pre-school. I am now looking for a new family. I was a Production Coordinator on Hollywood Films for 20 years. I am naturally detailed oriented, highly organized, and an excellent multi-tasker. I now enjoy babysitting because it allows me to play outdoors with Kids! I love doing creative projects with kids like: arts and crafts, painting, coloring, reading, and Play-Doh. I enjoy being outside, going to parks, beaches and libraries. My hobbies include cooking, home organizing, Pet and House Sitting. 4 Hour Minimum per Booking. I am extremely flexible. I can usually come early and may be able to stay later. If you need a regular schedule, we can do a flat rate. Please let me know if you have any questions. Debbie

Debbie looked after my 22month old daughter over 3 days whilst her daycare was closed. They had the most wonderful time from playing in parks, to visiting local libraries, Debbie was absolutely fantastic and I deeply appreciated how caring and thoughtful she was. Highly reccomend

Booked by 45 families in El Segundo, CA

Hello! My name is Joanna, I’m 28 years old and I’m originally from Poland/Italy. I was an AuPair in America (live in nanny) in 2[removed] and again in 2022-2023. I am CPR certified and trained to always make sure kids are safe. I have lots of experience in taking care of 3 or more kids at the same time and toddlers. I started babysitting around 10 years ago. I am an Italian tutor so I will be happy to teach your kids some new words (I’m fluent in Polish, Italian, English and I’m currently learning Spanish) and help them with homework. I always do my best to encourage kids to spend time in an active way and teach them about healthy lifestyle because I’m also a Personal Trainer and I’m very passionate about fitness. I am extremely reliable, responsible and punctual. I never canceled any of my babysittings and during the years as an AuPair never took an unexpected day off. I love to spend time with children and be a great role model for them. I’m happy to introduce myself better over a quick phone call 😊 + I am also a very strong driver with clean driving record and a reliable, safe car

She was so warm, our kids took to Joanna immediately!! We will definitely be calling her again very soon!

"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)."
