Booked by 3 families in Encino, CA

Here’s a little about me: I’m energetic, compassionate, creative, and love working with and caring for children. I’m originally from San Francisco, went to undergrad at Tulane in New Orleans, and am currently in my second year getting my masters in clinical psychology at Pepperdine (West LA campus). During the week, you can find me working as an ABA behavior technician working with kids on the autism spectrum, at my practicum site working as a school therapist at a TK-8, in class, or finding any opportunity to do something creative and/or be outside! I have over 8 years of working with kids (generally ranging from 3 months to 14 years old) in school, summer camp, and babysitting settings.

Kids liked her a lot! Said she was funny 😆 Showed up on time, did a good job

Booked by 1 family in Encino, CA

I have gained a lot of experience working with different types of children over the years. With various ages and backgrounds I have found that I love creating safe and comfortable environments for kids thrive and feel nurtured. I babysat all my younger cousins and friends of the family and kids in my neighborhood. I worked as an educator during my last year of high school at an after school program around various different schools in the school district. And throughly enjoyed working there. I have excellent communication skills that allow to me to cultivate a relationship with your child and allow open conversation between me and your child. I'm responsible and can adapt to any situation or new environment and will approach any task with as much enthusiasm and dedication as necessary.

Sochi babysat for us while we were out for a show. She played with the kids, fed them dinner, and handled the whole nighttime routine very well. She was also accommodating when we had a change in schedule. I would definitely recommend her!

Ariadni $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Ariadni, I am currently completing my last year at CSUN. I have also completed schooling for CCMA and have received my Medical Assistant certification from the NHA. I have 3 years of experience as a Physical Therapist aide at Sports Academy Thousand Oaks. As an aide I have worked with adults, teens, and children. 2[removed] I committed a year to volunteering at Shepherd of the Hills in Porter Ranch in their kid’s ministry. I helped take care of 2nd-5th grade boys and girls every weekend. With the kids I would do arts n’ crafts activities, play board games, color, and be a friend they can talk with. From 2022 til now, I have also been a youth leader at my church for a group of 6th grade girls who are now going into 10th grade. I meet with them every Wednesday night and plan on continuing to do so until they graduate high school. I am very comfortable around children and my goal after school is to go into PA school to eventually become a pediatric PA. I am also comfortable around pets, especially dogs, as I have a husky myself and I couldn’t ask for a better dog :)

"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)."
