Kate Los Angeles
$23 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kate and I'm a former TV producer who is in the process of building my holistic healing and facilitation practice. In recent years, I've shifted my career from 24/7 TV productions to focus on the well-being and care of others. I have extensive training in bodywork, somatic and energy healing therapies, nutritional healing along with mindfulness practices. I am also certified in CPR and Basic Lifesaving Skills. My friends and clients know me to be a natural nurturer who is guided by care and compassion. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services like errands, admin support, house sitting, and pet sitting. I spent years working as a producer creating and running all kinds of shoots for TV, so I am great with scheduling, admin duties, organization and problem solving. I know how to manage people and time. I am a natural caretaker and am comfortable with senior care. My maturity and understanding of the aging process makes me a compassionate and present caretaker. I appreciate history and collecting stories since I worked as a storyteller for so many years. I can support mobility, prep meals, drive to appointments, help with bills and paperwork, or do other household tasks. Compassionate listening is my greatest strength. I love music and the arts, so I am always up for a field trip or creating an environment at home that fosters imagination. My knowledge of health and healing will only benefit those I work with while my long career as a producer makes me efficient and focused on the job at hand. I have a long resume of being an "Auntie" to my friend's kids. I also spent years as a lifeguard and was a little league soccer coach at one point. I love to play! My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and sports practice. I also work as a household assistant and can help with administrative tasks, organization, and can run errands with some light meal prep / cooking. I look forward to supporting your busy life and creating more spaciousness in your day.

Hi, I am a career nanny who has recently moved from Boulder, CO to Los Angeles. I have 15+ years working as a professional nanny/family assistant. I have a bachelor’s degree in early care and education and a culinary diploma. I am passionate about helping families to thrive and truly love what I do. I am currently working with multiple nanny agencies in order to find my next best longterm fit. In the meanwhile, I am excited about making new connections and helping out families where I can. I love to cook, hike and play games. I’m great at organizing and taking on many additional household tasks outside of caring for children. I am a great communicator and have a very friendly and caring demeanor. I believe in getting children outside to play in nature and making nutritious meals.

Hello I’m glad you’re here! My name is Alexandra. I am 29 years old and a devoted mother and wife. I am fluent in English and Spanish. I began caring for children at the age of 18 and have 5 years of experience outside of my own children I care for. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers and also young children ages 3-6 years old. I am completing my CPR & first aid certification so this can be provided to help ease your mind that your family is safe. I previously worked as a behavioral technician. I have experience working with children with ASD. Here is where I grew my love for the field of psychology and early childhood development. This fall I plan to return to school for just that ! I would love to help families get back to things they love doing whether that be self-care, date nights or simply getting things done. You can also be returning to work or working from home. It can be very challenging to manage it all, as a mother / parent I salute you for taking the leap and getting the help you need ! It truly takes a village and I’d be honored to help. I love dogs own two myself ( corgi & pittie ). Some of my hobbies include: reading, writing, arts & crafts and photography! I’m also great at cleaning & organizing, would love to help your family, including light tidying around the house. My focus when working with littles and children is to build that trust and relationship with them so I can help them grow and learn. From fine motor skills, to cognitive development. We will play together, sing dance and learn along the way. All of this can be tailored to your personal needs as a family. I have experience with a wide variety of children and individuals. Potty training ? Diapering ? Nothing new ! No judgment I’m here to help. What may work for your family, may not work for others. Each care can be individualized. Not all children are the same, Have a routine ? Im great at adapting to your routine and schedule. I look forward to getting to know you and your family. Thank you for taking a moment to learn a little about me. I’ll see you all very soon !

First of all, she arrived on time! She is bright and energetic, and she took great care of my daughter. She brought picture books and toys, and they seemed to have so much fun playing together!! I really appreciated that she updated with texts and photo of my daughter while I was away, which gave me total peace of mind. While my daughter was napping, she even did some cleaning for us. She was such a big help! I would absolutely love to hire her again!

"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
