Julia $28 per hour for 1 child

I have experience babysitting school age children and focus on bringing curiosity, structure, and fun to the time we spend together. I have the most experience with that age group, but I can adapt to different ages and needs. I’m happy to help with homework and enjoy supporting kids academically. I’m currently getting my MBA at UCLA Anderson and looking for part-time work during my spare time. I previously worked in client services, where I learned to be reliable, communicative, and attentive to individual needs. I also help care for my father after a stroke, which has taught me patience and responsibility. I’ve also done house sitting and am very comfortable caring for both homes and pets. I love pets of all kinds, I have two dogs and have fostered many others, including senior dogs. I’m punctual, responsive, and easy to coordinate with, and I’m happy to help with meals, pickups, errands, and household tasks.

Isabelle $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there everyone! I’m looking for a part time nanny job starting mid August or later! I have experience with infants to pre-teens and am searching for a great family to work with over this next year! I have my own car for transportation and I am happy to help with cooking and tidying up a bit as well. By the time I start working in the next few weeks I will have completed my OSHA-approved, American Red Cross and AHA-certification in CPR and first aid training for adults, children and infants. A little bit more about me: I'm a 23- year-old recent college grad from San Francisco State University, I was raised in San Diego and began nannying in high school. Through college I worked closely with 2 families who I developed a great bond with (happy to provide them as references!). I am bubbly, thoughtful, and driven. I have tons of experience with kids who are all ages and from all walks of life. I believe the best way to help kids with almost anything is by modeling positive behavior and emotional regulation. I like working with kids because they have a unique perspective on life, and are thoughtful and curious about everything around them. In my spare time I like to read, hike, bake, and go vintage shopping. Please feel free to reach out to me if you would like to chat about rates, availability, or any other questions you may have.

"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."

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)."
