Khate North Hollywood
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hey! My name is Khate. I'm 34 years old. I recently decided to go back to school and I’m currently studying to become an Occupational Therapy Assistant. I have years of experience babysitting and full-time nannying. I’ve seen many of the kids I’ve watch grow up to be such lovely little human beings. It’s always been in my nature to take care of people. I love working with kids and help them build confidence as they grow up. My hobbies are listening and playing musical instruments like piano and guitar, drawing, singing, basically everything that has to do with arts! I love getting crafty and creative. I like going on hikes and discovering new coffee shops. I also have a background in Filmmaking and Photography so I like to capture little, beautiful moments.

$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Laura, and I am originally from Colombia. Children bring so much joy, peace, and happiness into my life. I consider myself a very positive, energetic, happy, responsible, and caring person. I take pride in strong communication skills, a positive outlook, and creating meaningful connections with the families I work with. I have over 15 years of experience caring for children, and child safety is always my top priority. I strive to provide a warm, fun, and nurturing environment in every babysitting or caregiving assignment. My goal is for parents to feel completely at ease and confident knowing their children are in competent, loving, and reliable hands. In addition to working with children, I also have experience caring for seniors. I volunteered at a senior home, where I spent time assisting seniors and supporting caregivers with daily tasks. I also provided professional, compassionate care for an elderly woman with dementia, working closely with her family and ensuring she was treated with dignity, patience, and respect. This experience was incredibly meaningful to me and strengthened my caregiving skills across all ages. Academically, I have completed my Associate’s degree in Social & Behavioral Science and Health Science at Irvine Valley College. I am CPR certified, completed a Holistic Newborn Care Specialist workshop, and hold a Certified Nursing Assistant diploma from Colombia. I am currently attending Cal State LA, majoring in Public Health. I am also happy to assist with household needs such as running errands, helping with school homework, organizing daily routines, and driving children to and from activities. I have a California driver’s license with a clean driving record, and I am very comfortable driving children safely. I would love the opportunity to meet with you to see if I would be a great addition to your family. . Thank you so much for your time and consideration—I look forward to hearing from you.

Laura Salazar has been amazing with my two youngest children. She is incredibly kind, patient, and attentive, and my kids felt comfortable with her right away. As a parent, it gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I truly felt I could trust her completely around my children, which is everything when it comes to childcare. I highly recommend Laura to any family looking for someone reliable, caring, and trustworthy.

"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
