Booked by 5 families in La Crescenta, CA

Hi, my name is Paul. I have over 30 years experience caring for infants and toddlers. I first began by working with children in a family daycare setting and have continued to provide childcare in many ways including proving transportation and in home care. Currently i provide transportation to and from school and extra curricular activities for children of all ages, and can provide excellent references from their families, upon request. Additionally, I run the church nursery on Sunday mornings and care for a a 9 month old on an on call basis. I'm the most conscientious and reliable person you will ever meet. I can adhere to a background check or anything else you desire I am open to watching your child or children either in your home or mine. I can provide reliable transportation in that I have a 2017 vehicle. In my spare time I am a volunteer at a classic car museum where I provide tours and drive visitors so they can experience the classic cars first hand. Caring for children has always been a passion of mine. I truly enjoy contributing to their development as well as learning from them in the process. My schedule is extremely flexible and I can be available at a moments notice. I look forward to assisting you and your family in anyway you may need.

Paul was great with our 14 month old girl. She warmed up to him very fast and had a great time reading books and playing with him.

Booked by 4 families in La Crescenta, CA

Hello! - My name is Andrea and I am 22 years old. I am currently a student at Southwest Los Angeles college studying political science and minoring in English. I currently work at an Elementary school as an after school dance coach! I was a family babysitter for nearly 3 years until the family moved out of Los Angeles. I loved working as a babysitter! Growing up with a big family has made me very family orientated and because of that my love for working with children grew. I have been working at an Elementary school for about three years now. I have experience with childcare within the ages of 3-11yr olds. I watched over a classroom with over 20 students for the past three years. I love education and seeing kids grow for success ! My responsibilities as a babysitter included cleaning the house, cooking for the kids, playing with children, helping with homework, and helping the family overall with tasks. I am a team player and love learning new techniques everyday. I will be studying Political Science and minoring in Child Education to pursue my career in teaching. For any questions please feel free to reach out.

Hailey 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Hailey!! I have previously worked at preschools and daycares where i’ve had the experience of teaching and setting routines for children. I’ve had experince with newborns as well as ages 3-5. For the newborns we had set routine for their naps, feeding, and a little play time of course! As for the ages of 3-5, We reviewed basic math, science, English, and music skills through games, songs, reading, art projects and workbook practice. I helped with changing diapers, potty training, nap time, and feeding. Worked with children ages 6-12 in an afterschool program, ensuring their safety as they got on and off the bus, helping with homework and providing general supervision.

Hailey is the best! I’ve known her for many years, and she is truly a blessing to this world. She radiates sunshine and positivity and I’ve seen how that impacts her work with children and animals. She is always trying to come from a place of understanding in order to meet a child or an animal’s needs. She always gives her very best, so you will never need to worry about your little bean while you’re away!

Booked by 1 family in La Crescenta, CA

I am a responsible, caring, and reliable nanny with hands-on experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-age children. I am also a mother of an 8-year-old daughter, which gives me a deep understanding of children’s daily needs, routines, and emotional development. Currently, I work as a nanny for two children, ages 1 and 3 years old. I truly enjoy spending time with children, creating a safe, calm, and nurturing environment where they feel supported, happy, and encouraged to grow. I am looking for additional babysitting opportunities in the evenings or on my days off from my regular nanny position. I am comfortable caring for newborns, babies, toddlers, and older children. I enjoy engaging children in age-appropriate games, creative activities, outdoor play, and educational activities that support their development. In addition to childcare, I can: • Prepare healthy meals • Assist with light housekeeping related to children • Help with elderly care • Take care of pets I am a non-smoker and maintain a healthy lifestyle with no bad habits. I am reliable, calm, patient, organized, and attentive to detail. I have been living in Los Angeles for 2 years. My English is basic, but I am improving every day and can communicate clearly for everyday needs. I am willing to obtain CPR and First Aid certification upon family request, and I would appreciate employer support for the certification cost if required. Families can rely on me to provide loving, responsible, and consistent care for their children.

Great attitude, on-time, helped clean, and clear communication. The kids really enjoyed her.

"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)."
