Cleonix $27 per hour for 1 child

I am a 26 year old South Bay resident passionate about childcare and my local community! I’ve always been proud to be the person families call when they need someone they can count on- especially when life gets busy, unpredictable, or just a little chaotic. I’m confident and comfortable caring for children as young as six months all the way up to teens. I aim to always bring a calm, positive presence to the home. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your child with someone- and I fully show up for that responsibility. I’m dependable, always on time, and genuinely care about becoming a supportive part of your family’s day-to-day. I am also experienced and comfortable with working alongside parents who are at home while I provide care. I know how helpful it can be to have a second set of hands to care for your children! At the same time, I bring warmth, fun, and creativity to the time I spend with kids. I focus on age-appropriate play that encourages imagination, independence, and confidence. Whether it’s storytelling, art, make-believe games, or getting outside for movement and fresh air, I love helping kids stay curious, joyful, and engaged. I know that these early years are so important to set them up to be the best adult versions of themselves one day. I also have a creative background- I earned my degree in Communications from UC Santa Barbara and have worked as a freelance photographer and creative communicator. That side of me comes out naturally when I’m with kids, whether it’s through art projects or fun crafts or story time. I know how much it means to find someone who fits seamlessly into your world and makes life feel a little easier- and I’d love to help your family!

Tyeronae $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’ve been working with kids for over 10 years and am CPR and First-Aid certified, with my own reliable transportation. I’m patient, easygoing, and love keeping kids entertained whether it’s reading books, doing crafts, or just being silly together. When I’m not babysitting, I’m usually on the rails, hanging out at the library, or volunteering with kids’ academic programs during the summer. My schedule can vary since I have a fulltime job, but I always do my best to be flexible for the right family!

"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)."
