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!

Tessa 1 review
Los Angeles
$28 per hour for 1 child

I’m currently seeking my next consistent, long-term daytime nanny position beginning in late August or September, ideally around 30+ hours per week. I have several years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and older children in both full-time nanny roles and flexible babysitting positions. I'm comfortable managing the full day-to-day routine including meals, bottles, diaper changes, naps, playtime, outdoor activities, school pickup, bedtime, and tidying up. Parents appreciate that I’m calm, reliable, communicative, and able to step into a family’s routine quickly. I’m patient and attentive, and i focus on creating a calm, warm, and fun energy with kids. I’ll be starting graduate school at LMU this fall, primarily with evening classes, so a daytime nanny role would fit very well alongside my studies. I’m based in Mid-City near Culver City and am especially interested in families on the Westside and near LMU. I’m also available for temporary nanny coverage, date nights, and occasional babysitting when my schedule allows.

Tessa has been absolutely fantastic, and we’ve loved working with her. Although she’s new to UrbanSitter, she was happy to provide references, which we really appreciated. From the start, she was communicative, punctual, and professional leading up to each appointment. While caring for our son, she carefully listened to and followed our schedule and preferences around feeding, sleeping, and routines. She was incredibly attentive and engaging with him, and he clearly adored her. We’ve now worked with Tessa a few times and will absolutely continue to hire her in the future. Highly recommend!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
