Xochitl $19 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in La Crescenta, CA

Hi! My name is Xochitl, but I go by Flower. I’m a current senior at UC Riverside majoring in Early Childhood Education. I offer childcare, senior care, and pet care, with most of my experience and passion being in childcare. I’ve been working with children since I was 16 and have experience caring for children of all ages, especially infants. My experience includes UrbanSitter, internships, working at an early childhood center, and working as an ABA with children on the autism spectrum. These experiences have helped me develop strong childcare skills. I am comfortable working with different ages, routines, and needs. I’m also available for school pickups and drop-offs, in-home services, and schedule changes when needed. I am CPR certified and can provide references upon request. I’m dependable, caring, and passionate about working with children, and I’d love the opportunity to help your family! :)

Jasmine $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi Moms! My name is Jasmine, and I bring 5 years of experience working with children ages 3months to 6years old and teenagers. I truly love helping little ones grow, learn, and feel safe. A little about me: I'm patient, dependable, nurturing, engaging, and creative. I enjoy planning fun, developmentally appropriate activities like story time, arts & crafts, outdoor play, and sensory learning. Some of my responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I'm also calm under pressure and adaptable to each child's unique personality and needs. Languages: I speak both English and Spanish fluently, and I love incorporating language learning into play when appropriate. Certifications: I'm not currently CPR/First Aid certified, but I'm willing to complete certification as needed.

Booked by 1 family in La Crescenta, CA

Hi families! My name is Maria, and I am a dedicated and passionate caregiver with over 10 years of professional experience supporting children of all ages, from infants to 17-year-olds. I pride myself on being deeply attentive, detail-oriented, and safety-conscious while creating a lively and nurturing environment. I love keeping kids engaged through interactive play, reading together, and preparing healthy, homemade meals. Beyond my extensive general childcare background, I also bring valuable personal and hands-on experience caring for individuals with special needs. Growing up with a sister on the autism spectrum has equipped me with a unique understanding, patience, and empathy for children with diverse developmental abilities. At the core of my caregiving philosophy is compassion. I believe in leading with an open heart and treating every child entrusted to my care as if they were my own. Whether your little ones need help with homework, an energetic play partner, or specialized care, I am here to provide a safe, joyful, and supportive space for them to thrive. I look forward to meeting your 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."

"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)."
