Hi! I love working with children and I have several years of experience. Throughout my four years of attending college in New York, I worked for a babysitting agency and helped care for children from many different families. Through this experience, I learned how to keep kids engaged and comfortable while we’re together. I love being creative with kids, coming up with fun games to play, helping with homework, etc. :)

Hi! My name is Justine. I am 30 years old. I have been babysitting for over a decade and have 5 years of professional nannying experience. I have recently relocated from Chicago to the Los Angeles area. That being said, my experience ranges from working with toddlers to school aged children. I have helped with homework extensively throughout my career. Other responsibilities I have held in the past include cooking meals and shuttling kids to their various activities. I also was in charge of other household duties such as: creating grocery lists, shopping, etc. I am a punctual, professional and hands on nanny. My goal is to create a safe, positive space for children to develop into the best versions of themselves. I am a patient, loving, and committed nanny to all of my kids. Outside of childcare, my interests include reading, self education, cooking, gardening, herbalism, and stopping to sniff the flowers. I look forward to speaking with you, Justine

Hi! I’m a reliable, patient, responsible, and experienced nanny and caregiver with a genuine passion for caring for children and helping families create a happy, safe, and well-managed home environment. I’m able to respond quickly and creatively to challenging childcare situations while remaining calm, patient, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I believe children should have fun, but I also believe in creating opportunities for them to learn, explore, and develop their creativity. In addition to childcare, I’m an experienced tutor who has taught math and science. I’m happy to assist with homework, school projects, reading, and other educational activities. I enjoy keeping children engaged with age-appropriate learning activities rather than having them spend the entire day watching TV or playing on devices. I’m disciplined, dependable, personable, and a people person. I’m also comfortable preparing nutritious and delicious meals, as I genuinely enjoy cooking. Helping with meal preparation and maintaining a comfortable, organized home is something I take pride in. I’m nurturing, attentive, flexible, and willing to go the extra mile to support the families I work with. I understand that every family has different needs, and I’m happy to be flexible with schedules and stay longer when needed whenever possible. Most importantly, I care for children with the same patience, kindness, and attentiveness I would want for the children in my own family. I’m a sister, a friend, and an aunty, and caring for others comes naturally to me. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and learn more about your childcare needs. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Thank you, and I look forward to connecting with you!

Booked by 1 family in La Crescenta, CA

Hi! I’m a dependable, nurturing caregiver with years of hands-on experience caring for children, seniors, pets, and helping families at home. I’m currently studying at West Los Angeles College to become a social worker, so caring for others isn’t just something I do — it’s what I’m passionate about. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I help with homework, prepare simple meals, create fun activities, and keep routines on track. I’m very patient, attentive, and focused on making kids feel safe, heard, and supported. I also have experience assisting seniors with companionship, light housekeeping, transportation to appointments, and everyday tasks. I’m calm, respectful, and understand how important dignity and kindness are in care. I’m comfortable caring for all types of animals and can help with feeding, walks, playtime, and basic pet care. I’m happy to help with household tasks like cleaning, laundry, dishes, and errands to make your home run more smoothly. I’m not an experienced cook, but I can prepare very basic meals when needed. Families describe me as trustworthy, gentle, and reliable. I treat every home and loved one with the same care and respect I give my own family.

Absolutely would and will hire again. SHE’S AMAZING! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"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)."
