Hello! My name is Daniela, I’ve worked with kids since I was 15 years old. I am a college student studying education. I have worked for LAUSD and LBUSD as a teaching assistant and I also have worked as a nanny to two kids during the week. I help them with homework, sports, take them to their appointments and have a great relationship with the family. I have been with them for four years. I can teach phonetics, mathematics and writing. I also have experience with infants and toddlers as I have also worked at a day care and with other families privately. I am currently going back to school to finish my bachelor’s in education.

Benjamin $33 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I have a master’s degree in teaching from USC and a degree in psychology from UCI. I have 12+ years working in education in the following roles: certified elementary teacher (taught 5th grade for 4 years), substitute teacher in elementary, middle, and high school, sports coach, and tutor. I can speak and understand some Spanish. I love working with kids, love music, sports, arts, and outdoor activities. Love cats and Spiderman. I’m the oldest of 5 siblings, so leadership and caregiving come naturally to me. I’m usually the one at family parties playing with and teaching the little ones. I have experience baby sitting my own nephew since he was months old (now 5). I attended private schools from 1st grade through high school (attended Loyola High School where I played football and ran track). Outside of my credentials I’m flexible at the moment and willing to take on whatever task you are interested in throwing at me with enthusiasm!

Hai $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in La Palma, CA

Hello my name is Hai and I am 50 years young. I come from a family of immigrants who came to the U. S. in 1975 after the Vietnam war. At that time there were 11 members in my family which included my parents and 8 siblings. I was the second youngest child. In 2008 my baby sister passed away from colon cancer when she was only 32. She was a second grade teacher at Lampson Elementary in the Orange Unified School District and loved her students. She won teacher of the year around 2005. She also loved all of our 12 nieces and nephews. We both shared a deep affection for kids. I became an uncle when I was only 10 after my first and oldest niece was born. She is now 40, and has a 2 year young son and a newborn boy. I remember holding her when she was a newborn and she fell asleep in my arms. That was the start of my love and journey with kids. Because of having so many older siblings I have a total of 12 nieces and nephews. I took care of and played with all of them when they were little, so I have many years of experience watching kids. I’m kind, patient, and nurturing. For the past 11 years I’ve been a volunteer with a nonprofit organization called Linc, where I am a mentor at an after school program for kids between kindergarten and 7th grade. I serve them snacks, help them with their homework, and play fun activities with them, including reading, art projects, and games. I won volunteer of the year in 2015. My supervisor at the program loves me and is one of my closest friends. If you need a reference or letter of recommendation from her I would be happy to oblige. I am a kind and responsible individual that you can trust to take care of your loved ones.

"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

"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)."
