Tabitha $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I'm Tabitha, a 32-year-old SoCal native who loves the beach, working out at the gym, being a self-taught polyglot, and pursuing creative activities such as crochet and fashion design. I'm also a Commercial Model and actor-in-training! I've practiced martial arts for about seven years, and what I love most about it is the discipline and confidence that stems from pursuing the art. I also love teaching the kids self-defense, and seeing their eyes light up when they accomplish something new! I have an A.S. in Nutrition, and became a Certified Nutritionist! I'm also studying for my NASM fitness certification, because I absolutely love wellness and educating others on how to live a holistically healthy life! I have 5+ years of caregiving mainly of children ranging from the age of infant to 12+. I've also done some pet sitting of furbabies (mostly doggos!). I love caregiving because it's a chance to allow parents/pet owners to get a break, but also to build interpersonal relationships and socialize with different people and cultures! I also love watching the development and growth of children and bonding with them. I can't wait to meet you! :)

Kyle $30 per hour for 1 child

Dear Team, With over 21 years of experience in early childhood education, my passion for watching children grow and develop has only deepened. My journey began by volunteering at my church’s Vacation Bible School, where the children affectionately referred to me as "Mr. Kyle." This experience ignited my love for being involved in their learning. At Fullerton College, I immersed myself in child development courses, earning my Associate's Degree and Childhood Teacher Certificate while gaining hands-on experience at the campus preschool. After a few years in various preschools, I returned to complete my Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Education at Pacific Oaks College. This blend of education and practical experience has allowed me to create fun and supportive environments where children can thrive. I genuinely enjoy helping children discover new skills and reach their potential. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience and enthusiasm to your team. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to discussing how I can contribute to making your school a place where both teachers and parents feel confident knowing their children are in good hands.

Nathalia $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Nathalia, I'm 31 years old, originally from Brazil, and I have a degree in Public Health. I'm a positive, energetic, and responsible person who truly loves working with children. I bring warmth, patience, and consistency into every home, and I always aim to create a safe, loving, and fun environment for each child I care for. I also love cooking - especially Brazilian food - and I've been a confident driver since 2014. Experience in Brazil During college, I worked in a hospital for one year caring for babies, which is where I discovered my passion for childcare. I also taught English to children ages 3 to 7 at a language school, helping them learn through play, creativity, and routine. Experience in the United States I came to the U.S. through the Au Pair Program (2[removed]), where I cared for three wonderful children, ages 7, 9, and 12. We built such a strong connection that we still keep in touch today. Professional Nanny Experience Over the years, I've had the privilege of working with many families, caring for children from newborns to school-age kids. My experience includes: • Family 1: Care for a baby from 10 to 23 months old. • Family 2: Short-term care for an 11-month-old baby. • Family 3: Started with a newborn and stayed until he was 20 months old and transitioned to daycare. • Family 4: Cared for a baby from 11 months to 2 years and 2 months old. • Family 5: Helped two families with children ranging from newborn to 3 years old, and another set of siblings ages 5 and 7. • Family 6 (current): Caring for two children, ages 2 months and 3 years old. Across all these roles, my responsibilities have included: feeding, playing, outdoor activities, bathing when needed, diaper changes, organizing routines, supporting developmental milestones, and creating engaging educational activities. What I Bring to Your Family I'm nurturing, reliable, organized, and always focused on the well-being and safety of the children. I pride myself on good communication, flexibility, and the ability to keep daily routines running smoothly. Families describe me as calm, responsible, and genuinely loving with their children. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I'd love the opportunity to meet your family and see if we're the right fit. Thank you, and I look forward to speaking with you soon!

"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)."
