“I was lucky enough to have the priviledge to have Megan as a nanny for a few months and she was exceptional. She was always on time, always on top of everything, and would go above and beyond. She has a way to connect with children and it’s so beautiful to see because you can tell she truly loves working with them. My daughter and her got so close refers to her as “sissy” and whenever I need a sitter I wouldn’t think of calling anyone beside her!”

Hi! My name is Luisa but you can call me Marie, and I’m a caring, patient, and dependable mom who loves working with children. I’m currently offering childcare and babysitting services for families in the Los Angeles area. I have hands-on experience caring for my own young child and understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust.

Booked by 1 family in La Crescenta, CA

Hello There, I'm Shanya. I'm originally from Boston, MA. and went to college in New York city, where I lived for about 15 years. I've been in LA for the past 3 years and I run a freelance design business from home. In addition to my design business, I spend a lot of my free time working several passions art projects. Some of the things that I'm passionate about include sustainability, creative experimentation and arts education as a means for personal development and discovery. I love teaching art to people of all ages. Some of my past project include; 1) developing a maker market / craft fair in Portland, Oregon that supported the local maker community while teaching craft skills to children and adults, and 2) working as an art workshop instructor for a off Broadway theatre company, where I lead children in works that were later used as set decorations. For example during a production of the Little Mermaid the children made sea creatures that were used to decorate the stage during the live show. If your kids are into arts and crafts, I would love to work on something fun with them!

"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)."
