Maleigha $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m a caring and dependable nanny with a lot of real-life experience. I helped raise my younger brother, so I’m very comfortable with daily routines, keeping kids entertained, and creating a safe, loving environment. I also worked for a nanny agency in 2019, where I looked after kids of different ages and helped families with whatever they needed day-to-day. I grew up super athletic and stayed active as a young adult, so I love getting kids moving—playing outside, doing simple sports, or just finding fun ways to burn energy. Overall, I’m easygoing, reliable, and I genuinely enjoy being around kids and making them feel comfortable and cared for.

Annazette $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a fun, responsible mom who truly understands how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your family. I love creating a positive environment where kids feel safe, happy, and entertained. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, doing crafts, reading, or planning fun Disney-style days full of imagination and laughter, I enjoy keeping kids engaged while also helping maintain their routines. I’m patient, dependable, and naturally nurturing. As a mom myself, I understand how much trust parents place in someone caring for their children. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks like tidying up, organizing, meal prep, or running small errands to make busy family days a little easier. I also enjoy spending time with seniors and providing companionship, helping with everyday tasks like cooking, light cleaning, organizing, or simply being there for conversation and support. I truly enjoy helping families feel supported and at ease knowing their loved ones are in good hands. If you’re looking for someone caring, reliable, and fun who treats your family with kindness and respect, I would love to get to know you and your family. Also I have a 6 year old daughter who loves to meet new friends so if it’s an option to bring her along then that would be amazing !!

Victoria $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Victoria, I’m 29 years old, and I’m a graduate of California State University, Fullerton with a degree in History. My background is in secondary education, and I’ve always had a deep passion for working with children. I have four years of nannying experience with kids ranging in age from 4 to 18, and I find so much joy in supporting both their academic and creative development. I believe childhood enrichment is incredibly important, and I love incorporating fun and educational activities into daily routines. As an artist who enjoys drawing and painting, I’m always excited to share those skills with children and encourage their creativity. I’m also available to tutor in a wide range of school subjects, including help with homework, projects, and essay writing. In addition to childcare, I’m a huge animal lover! I have two cats and one dog of my own, all of whom I’ve raised since they were young. I’d be happy to help care for family pets as part of my role. My goal as a nanny is simple: to make your life easier. Whether that means running errands, assisting with pet care, helping with older family members, or creating a safe, structured, and engaging environment for your children—I’m here to support your family however I can.

"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)."
