Booked by 1 family in El Segundo, CA

When I was a child, I was in daycare myself. As I got older, I began to also assist my daycare giver with the younger children. That period of my life would be the most hands-on experience with all ages when it came to babysitting. By living in a gated community, I’ve grown close with the people in my village, and at times I would be the oldest on the block so I would play and babysit the younger children for the night while the adults went out. In 2020, I was one of the founders of a Remote Tutoring business where I served as a secretary, and a tutor myself. We serviced Pre-K to 12th grade and I would tutor Pre-K to 8th grade in a variety of subjects. Given that I was a highschooler at the time, I was able to build a very strong bond with my students because at times, children tend to listen more to people who are closer in age with them. Shortly after graduating high school, I worked at a Coding summer camp in El Segundo called CodeNinjas where I babysat and taught technology essentials to K-5th, 5 times a week for 4 hours. Most recently as of this past March, I traveled to St. Louis, Missouri for spring break with my college, Howard University to service that community through youth empowerment, and violence prevention. For a whole week, I worked with plenty of children of all ages at different schools. Specifically, I assisted the youth by tutoring 1-on-1, intermingled with the students about college and general life, packaged 8 pallets of toys and school supplies for nearby recreation centers, community centers, and schools. I enjoy cooking and because of that, I am experienced in both preparing meals and cleaning. I have a high respect for all my elders since I am the youngest in the family and was raised by older generations.

“Leilani was the absolute best with my 9 year old. She was punctual, the consummate professional, and instantly connected with my son. She exudes such warmth and passion for the care she provides which was observable and deeply valued. My son thoroughly enjoyed how present, interactive, and engaging she was and in his own words would “strongly recommend” her as she was among his favorite sitters to date. I'd rehire Leilani again without reservation and look forward to working with her in the future.”

Hi! My name is Paula, and I’m a psychologist in my home country and a bilingual (English/Spanish) caregiver with over 8 years of experience supporting families here in Los Angeles. I have cared for newborns, babies, infants, toddlers, and older children, and I truly love helping little ones learn, grow, and thrive in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment. As a mother, I combine my professional background with real-life parenting experience to provide attentive, individualized care. I enjoy supporting children’s development through tummy time, sensory play, language stimulation, reading, outdoor activities, creative play, introducing solids, and maintaining healthy feeding, sleep, and daily routines. I have American Heart Association Pediatric CPR & First Aid training, a reliable car, a clean California driver’s license, and excellent references, which I’d be happy to share. Families describe me as calm, dependable, patient, and deeply committed. I believe in building trusting relationships with both parents and children while respecting each family’s routines and parenting style. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile.

Laura $35 per hour for 1 child

Child at Heart ♡ I have been caring for children since I was a young girl and it brings me such joy. Which is why I have done everything from babysitting/nanny to coaching a Special Olympics team, to teaching Art Therapy at the Ronald McDonald House, to teaching swimming, photography, and English to kids, in the US and abroad. I do have my certification for AED, Adult, Child, Infant CPR & AED Training, valid until 03/20/28 and a safe SUV for driving infants to teens. For me the joy is finding what excites each child - and then creating an opportunity for play and learning, whatever the age. Currently (and always!) I am writing a children's book series and want to spend more time with kids. All ages are a fun and creative exploration for me too - always working to find new ways to keep them safe, happy and curious! Teaching for me includes: being in nature, long walks outside, reading, writing, cooking, drawing, games, crafting or building robots, play, music, sport, meditation, kindness, ART, making videos, taking pictures, swimming, yoga, and so much more! Unique: I enjoy exposing young learners to new languages (even infants) including Chinese, Japanese and French. In addition, I do have a small service dog that kids love to play with, read to and cuddle with. She also loves giving hugs!

Vanessa $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Vanessa, and I’m dedicated to supporting families through dependable childcare and pet care. I offer babysitting, nanny services, and pet care, and I bring a calm, organized, and caring approach to everything I do. With experience caring for children ages 1–14 in my family since I was about 14, I am new to offering my services outside of family. I love planning activities, being outdoors and working hands-on projects that keep kids active, engaged, and happy. I enjoy organizing, cooking, baking, crafts, and cleaning, and I always aim to create a positive, safe environment for children to learn and grow. I’m currently in the process of getting my certification in CPR and First Aid to give families more confidence and peace of mind. For pet care, I have experience with both large and small dog breeds, as well as cats. I provide walks, feeding, and playtime. I’m comfortable with large breeds and animals that shed. I treat every pet like part of the family and make sure they feel loved and well cared for. I’d love the opportunity to provide reliable, caring support for your home, your children, and your pets. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

"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)."
