Booked by 2 families in La Crescenta, CA

I am 27 , from a small town in Oregon. I have been in LA since September of last year. I am currently in school for massage therapy and chinese medicine, also getting my yoga teacher certification. I love animals, being outside, cooking, doing art, sewing, yoga, skateboarding, anything that gets my body moving or allows me to express my creativity. I am the oldest of 4 siblings so I have tons of experience with many different ages. The ages of children I’ve worked with are 5 months to 16 years. I have my postpartum doula certification as well, looking to expand my knowledge into assisting births as well :) I am also open to a personal assistant type role. I am a very kind, patient and compassionate person so your kiddos will be in the best hands! I am a kid at heart. I am someone you will be able to trust, as I am very responsible, respectful and attentive. I also have my own car and don’t mind helping out with commutes or pick ups/drop offs. I look forward to connecting :-) Ideally I am looking for something longer term part time ! I have my passport and am open to travel as well.

Sascha is a reliable, enthusiastic, caring sitter. She is attuned to my 6month olds needs, has great energy, and naturally partners with me to provide a calm, positive environment for my son. I look forward to when she is with us as I know her presence will make it a great day.

Hi, my name is Anisa. I’m 19 years old and have a strong love for caring for children. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15 and have experience with newborns, infants, toddlers, and older kids. Growing up having to take care of my siblings. I’m also a caregiver and currently in school studying to become a pharmacy technician. I’m a daughter of God — patient, nurturing, and responsible. I enjoy spending time with kids and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I can also help with light cleaning, meal prep, and cooking if needed. I’m currently in the process of getting my driver’s license, but able to commute. In my free time, I love going to the gym and staying active. I’m excited to help families who need someone trustworthy and kind to care for their little ones.

Anisa is our neighbor and we thought she would be great babysitter for me and my husband , she has been watching our baby since he was 1 and he is now 5 years old . We just had our baby girl last month and she has been catering and being the biggest help in the household. Greatest blessing to us and always helping she is like family to us!!

Hi, my name is Ashley! I have experience working as a Montessori Assistant Teacher, where I supported children’s learning and development in a nurturing classroom environment. I assisted with educational activities, outdoor play, daily routines, and helped maintain a safe, organized, and positive space for children to thrive. In addition to my classroom experience, I have worked as a babysitter for families whose parents traveled for work or vacations, providing dependable and attentive care. Through these experiences, I have developed strong childcare skills, including creating engaging activities, supporting children’s emotional well-being, and ensuring their safety at all times. I am patient, responsible, caring, and passionate about helping children learn, grow, and build confidence. I enjoy creating meaningful connections with children and providing families with trustworthy and compassionate care.

Ashley was amazing she came right on time and listened to directions perfectly. My son had a great time with her as well. I’m grateful for her professionalism and warm personality. Thank you!

I have extensive experience in childcare, with a lifelong passion for nurturing and supporting children’s growth. As a caring and loving individual, I have had the joy and privilege of raising my two granddaughters from infancy through their early school years. Through this experience, I developed strong skills in creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment where children can learn, play, and thrive. I am patient, dependable, and attentive to each child’s individual needs — whether it’s helping with homework, preparing healthy meals, organizing creative activities, or providing emotional comfort. Families can trust that their children will be cared for with kindness, respect, and genuine affection.

"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."

"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
