Alysia $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Alysia and I’m a senior at CSU Dominguez Hills. I have associate degrees in Psychology, Sociology, and Behavioral Management. I enjoy caring for others and have a lot of experience. I grew up helping take care of my four younger sisters so I’m very comfortable with kids of all ages. I also helped care for my grandfather before he recently passed so I’m comfortable with senior care as well. I can help with daily tasks and make sure people feel safe and cared for. I’m responsible and I always try to create a positive environment. I’d love to help support your family.

Amanda $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Amanda “Leeanna” White and I’m new to LA — just moved from Denver! - Fun, flexible, reliable - I was lucky to gain childcare experience early on as my mother ran an in-home childcare business and helped her as a teenager. After graduating college and gaining experience in several areas of the public service sector, I was offered a position as a program director for a before and after school care program. After excelling in structuring engaging & educational programing, I was promoted to assistant area manager. This allowed me to oversee several elementary school programs and plan and lead their summer day camps! After two amazing years working with elementary aged children, I decided to step into working with individual families. I have since been nannying and have worked with children of all ages, newborn-12 yro. My approach to my work with children is safety first, fun age appropriate play and exploration second! Well versed with many certifications, I can’t wait to connect with a family long term and provide care for your kiddos! If this sounds like a good fit, please don’t hesitate to reach out! I am happy to provide all certifications, letters of recommendation & resume upon request 😌 -reliable transportation -passport and valid ID -strong swimmer -great communication -caregiver for elderly & pets available

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

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)."
