Stephanie $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Stephanie, and I am offering short-term and occasional childcare, household support, and pet care. I'm a pediatric oncology nurse who recently moved to LA, and as I look for my next nursing job, I’d love to support families with quality care during this transitional period. I also have a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood & Family Studies, so working with children has always been a huge joy and passion of mine! Before becoming a nurse, I spent over 10 years babysitting and nannying for families with children of all ages. I especially love working with infants! I am dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for kids—one that emphasizes creativity, structure, early childhood development support, and screen-free play. Activities like arts and crafts, reading, outdoor adventures, and imaginative play. I pride myself on being patient, dependable, loving, and fun, while also being attentive to each family’s routines and preferences. I’ve had the privilege of working with many different families and children, and I will always strive to meet each child and family where they are, offering care that feels personal and consistent. I love animals and am comfortable with cats and dogs, open to animal care as well. I am excited to connect and learn more about your family!

Allison $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m Allison, a compassionate, optimistic, intuitive being with over five years of experience caring for little ones. While I've been familiar with children of all ages, I am most experienced with those between 18 months to ten years old. I am led by a deep sense of love and reverence for all beings and a desire to make everyone around me feel truly seen. I enjoy fostering environments where children feel respected, safe, and nurtured in their curiosity and unique modes of expression. One of my greatest gifts is my ability to handle stress with grace and positivity, providing a backdrop of emotional regulation for children to learn to navigate their ever-changing emotional highs and lows. I regard all souls to be of equal immeasurable value, therefore I see children as human beings first and foremost. As with adults, I believe their trust and respect must be earned, not demanded. This isn’t to say I’m a pushover. Contrarily, I have a direct manner and establish clear, healthy boundaries. In addition to caring for children, I have experience as a yoga instructor and a recreational dancer. (A long-term professional goal of mine is to work in Dance/Movement based therapy, therefore I value the role of movement in the development and holistic well-being of our little ones). I have two years of experience working as an ESL-tutor and can help kids work towards their academic goals. With my B.A. degree in Creative Writing from Bard College, I love encouraging children to read, watch, listen, analyze, and create their own stories, whether it be through watching movies, dressing up, or playing improv games. Additionally, I enjoy cooking, crafting, decorating, and all the small efforts that make everyday moments feel just a little more special. I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes. While I don’t have experience caring for elderly, I very much enjoy the company of elders and would consider an opportunity to work with them to be a great privilege. Located in Venice. Very flexible hours. Access to reliable transportation.

"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)."
