Hi! My name is Kika, I'm a friendly and energetic caretaker with experience as a preschool teacher, nanny, and kids gymnastics coach. I love creating a joyful, safe and structured environment where kids thrive and know they are supported. I've spent the last year and a half nannying full-time for a wonderful family who I feel so lucky to have grown so close with. Their toddler is now heading to preschool, so I'm looking forward to finding a new family to support. I'm looking for at least 30 hours per week and open to more. One of my favorite parts of being a nanny is discovering each child's unique learning style so I can support and foster their growth in a way that they enjoy and works best for them. I love helping kids discover their strengths and interests and building up their confidence. My days with kids are filled with tactile play, arts and crafts, science experiments, making music, storytelling, reading, outdoor adventures and more. I love finding their special interests and talents and supporting them in becoming their best selves. I'm very playful while also being patient and supportive and enforcing the structure and boundaries that help children feel secure. I especially enjoy working with neurodivergent children. As someone who grew up with ADHD, I understand the importance of meeting children where they are and embracing the way they experience the world. I currently teach gymnastics to neurotypical kids as well as kids with developmental and physical disabilities and I really love working with this community. I know that inviting someone into your home to care for your children is a big decision and I value the trust that families place in me. I love building positive and long lasting relationships the families I work with. I have my current CPR, First Aid, and concussion response certifications and I am a mandated reporter in the State of California. Thanks for taking the time to read my profile! I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family and hope to hear from you soon! -Kika

Kika has been our full-time nanny for a year and a half. She has become family and we couldn't love her more. If our son wasn't moving on to preschool and could stay a toddler forever, then we'd hire Kika forever! (And honestly, if money were no object, we'd keep her on salary just to be on-call - we love her that much.) We're sad to see her less, but very excited for the next families she works with to be blessed with her presence. She is highly creative, joyful, sweet, responsible, communicative, and a really great hang. Seriously, Kika is a gem.

Hi families ! I'm Natalia, I’m from Colombia, and I wanted to introduce myself and share a bit about my experience. I have over 10 years of solid, hands on experience working with children in different environments. I spent a full year as an Au Pair in Calabasas, where I was fully responsible for the kids’ daily routines school drop-offs and pick-ups, activities, homework, meals, and overall structure at home. That role required a high level of trust, organization, and consistency, and it’s been a big part of shaping the way I work with families. Even to this day, I’m still very close with the family I lived with, which I think says a lot about the relationship we built. Before that, I worked as a gymnastics coach with kids of different ages, where I learned how to manage groups, keep kids engaged, and create a fun but structured environment. I’ve also worked in a hospital setting with children, including those with special needs, which gave me a deeper level of patience, awareness, and ability to adapt to each child’s specific needs. Alongside all of this, I’ve consistently babysat over the years, working with different families and age groups. I also volunteer constantly at church with the kids groups. I’m very confident handling routines, multiple children, and creating a safe, positive environment while still being proactive and supportive to both kids and parents. ✅CAR ✅CPR ✅ BILINGUAL (ENGLISH-SPANISH) ✅GREAT WITH DOGS / PETS ✅NON-SMOKER ✅VACCINATED ✅ SOLID REFERENCES

I needed a last-minute sitter, and Natalia provided excellent care for our 13-month-old. She took him to the park, fed him, and played with him throughout the visit.

I’m a graduate from UCLA and have a background in social and community work. Most recently, my efforts have been related to Head Start services fostering child and family partnerships. I adore children and have been providing babysitting services since I was 14 years old. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, school aged children and teens. I’ve also worked with children on the autism spectrum. My responsibilities have included caregiving, tutoring, crafting, and mentoring. I can also cook and clean. I look forward to nurturing relationships with potential children and families! :)

Andrea is excellent. She was on time, very kind, very professional. I highly recommend 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)."

Eric D., dad of two
