Anisa 1 review
$21 per hour for 1 child

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!!”

Hello there parents of LA and OC! I am Isis, I have been a professional babysitter/nanny for seven years now. Throughout the years I have learned so much about children and babies! I have taken care of as young as a three week old baby to Young teens. My greatest qualities as a babysitter/ nanny is that l am super playful with a good imagination coming up with arts and crafts, activities and games. I am always on the go whether it's going to the park or to the library. Things always come up on the road such as traffic, accidents, and inconvenience but l'm always on time for my families.To conclude I am always there for the kids that I care for and love and care for them as if they were my own. I'm always loving, kind and patient. I hope to hear from you soon and can't wait to meet you and your family. Best Regards, Isis

Brenda 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in La Palma, CA

Hi, I’m Brenda! I’ve spent the last 8 years working with kids in classroom settings, supporting both general education and special education students ages 5–16. I hold a Special Education teaching credential and have 4 years of experience as a special education teacher for 2nd, 3rd, and 9th grades. I have also worked as a nanny and tutor with children ages 1- 19years old. Working closely with children of different abilities has taught me patience, creativity, and how to meet kids where they are. I offer babysitting, tutoring, house sitting, cooking, pet sitting, and elderly care. I genuinely love spending time with children—whether that’s helping with homework, baking together, heading to the park or museum, or cheering them on at sports practice. I also enjoy swimming, running, and staying active, which helps me keep up with energetic kids. I’m reliable, caring, and hands-on, and I always aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and parents feel confident.

“Brenda was beyond expectations in helping with rides, household tasks and cooking. Dependable, kind and a easy to work with. Would definitely recommend!”

"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)."
