Booked by 8 families in Garden Grove, CA

Hi my name is Maisha and I have around 4-5 years of paid babysitting experience! I have a lot of experience working with children, both through my job at Skyzone hosting birthday parties and as an assistant teacher at a preschool. I’ve also been taking care of my younger siblings and the children of my relatives and family friends for over 5 years , so I understand how important it is to be responsible,attentive, and to have fun. My responsibilities have included preparing meals, tutoring, arts/crafts, driving to / from school and more tasks. Im more than happy to help out with any household chores and my hours are very flexible so Im happy to work with your schedule. I’m friendly, outgoing, and love working with kids, so I’m excited to help out with babysitting and make sure your children have a fun and safe time! I am first aid-certified, i have my food handlers card, and my drivers license.

Maisha is wonderful! She's very attentive, reliable, kind, and respectful. I WFH and needed help with my 7-month old daughter, and my daughter was instantly drawn to her. I really love how communicative and engaging she is with my daughter. Maisha is also very knowledgeable and family oriented. We went through several meet and greet with other candidates, and I knew right away Maisha was the one! I'd highly recommend her for kids of all ages. Our assignment was short because we are moving out of state, but we seriously will miss her! ☺️

Booked by 2 families in Garden Grove, CA

I have cared for children for over 15 years. I have a background in the medical field/pediatrics. I am trained in CPR and First Aid and have been fully vaccinated for Covid. I love caring for infants as well as toddlers and teenagers. I enjoy doing arts and crafts, outdoor activities and just having fun. I am reliable and organized with a great passion for watching children learn and grow.

Ramee came early and quickly made my wife feel confident leaving her with our 3 year old and 1.5 year old. She was super sweet and sent us updates during our long night out. Our daughter keeps asking us when she is coming back because she had so much fun!

Booked by 1 family in Garden Grove, CA

I am currently a second year in college. I am getting a degree in special education to become an elementary school special education teacher. I am the oldest out of 10 cousins so I have a lot of experience with babysitting. I am from Huntington Beach, California. I have been doing softball lessons with kids ages 6-15 for about 5 years now and I love it! It’s so much fun to work with the kids and see them grow as a person and in the sport. I also volunteered at a local church and worked in the nursery and the toddler room. I am a huge family person and I will always be. I know American Sign Language but I am not fully fluent.

Aurora 3 reviews

Hi families! I’m Aurora — I work in the medical field and have a genuine love for caring for others. I have experience with children of all ages, including those with autism, and I’m known for being patient, dependable, and easy to communicate with. Kids warm up to me quickly because I bring a calm but fun energy — I love reading stories, getting creative with crafts, spending time outdoors, and keeping things structured yet full of joy. Whether you need an occasional sitter, consistent help, or someone you can trust in a pinch, I’m here to make your life easier and your little ones feel safe and cared for. I treat every child like family and always show up with a smile and a helping heart. I’d love to connect and see how I can support your family — feel free to reach out anytime. P.S. I accept payment via cash, debit, or Zelle—whichever is most convenient for you

We couldn’t find a sitter my daughter liked until we met Aurora! She’s so kind and patient, and now my daughter actually looks forward to “Aurora days.”

Hi! My name is Sheyda, and I’m based in Orange County. I offer reliable and caring babysitting services, and I truly enjoy working with children of all ages.

I’m patient, responsible, and love creating a fun and safe environment—whether that’s helping with homework, doing crafts, playing games, or keeping a consistent routine. I always try to make sure kids feel comfortable and happy while in my care. I can also help with light household tasks such as meal prep, tidying up, and organizing. If needed, I’m happy to assist with school pick-ups, activities, or errands. I take safety very seriously and always make sure children are supervised and well cared for. I’m dependable, easy to communicate with, and flexible with scheduling. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide a positive, trustworthy babysitting experience!

"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."

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)."
