Marta $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Marta. I first came to Orange County from Europe (Poland) as an au pair, and caring for kids has remained part of my life ever since, from family and friends’ children to working with kids, teenagers and students in Los Angeles. I genuinely enjoy young people. I’m curious about what interests them, love encouraging their creativity and confidence, and I’m equally comfortable being playful or providing structure when they need it. I recently moved back to Orange County and would love to connect with a few local families who want someone mature, dependable, warm and actually engaged with their kids. I also happen to be a great cook, love art, culture and exploring the world, and speak both English and Polish. Most importantly, I want kids to feel safe, comfortable and happy being themselves around me.

I am very caring and loving. I also have some experience with special needs kids. I love to be outside and go for walks and I will be a mommy helper if need too. I will have a screen free approach unless parents say otherwise. I do work at a preschool so I have experience working with multiple kids at a time. I am also CPR & First Aid certified. Interview wise I am happy with in person, FaceTime or call. If you have anymore questions don’t hesitate to ask I will be happy to answer. I hope you consider me!! :)

Hello everyone, my name is Abril (24yr old) and I currently go to Orange Coast College. I have my drivers license and valid insurance. I’ve worked with kids (I’ve babysat my sister my sister since she was 9 years old, and we have a 6 year age difference & I babysit my 10 month old niece all the time) and I also worked at a senior living home for 2 years (memory care included). I can cook some meals (mainly Mexican) and help with errands and some household things. I love going to the beach and journaling, I love my cat and family, and I love art and baking!

“Abril is AMAZING. She was on time. So sweet and patient. My girls loved her. She was flexible with time. And even stayed late for us. We would absolutely recommend her. 100% ”

"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)."
