Hi👋🏻 A good nanny is not only someone who takes care of children, but also someone who provides them with love, security, and stimulation for their development. Three fundamental qualities that distinguish an exceptional nanny are empathy, patience, and creativity.🥰 As a plus, I work in a daycare from a few days a week , my vocation is really beautiful and I love my job🫶🏻 CPR First Aid Mandatory Report/ Finger Prints- Footprints / to work in daycare/ Experience with Children - Reference letter if necessary Vaccines/ Covid, Tuberculosis

Daniela is kind and playful. She’s someone honest that I feel that I can trust. She’s has great ideas for pre-school preparation which is also very helpful.

Hi, moms and dads, my name is Tanielle and I am a kindergarten teacher. I have several years of experience, from taking care of newborns overnight up until middle aged kids. I absolutely love babysitting because of the relationship I form with the children and their families-it fills me up. I am a fun, loving, compassionate and creative person. I also enjoy cooking, baking, spending time outside, traveling but also enjoy my own company. I am CPR qualified, fully vaccinated and boosted. I have also completed a background check. I am flexible with open availability. Thanks for taking the time to get to know me-hope to meet you soon! *I require a minimum of 4 hours* *FYI regardless if parents return earlier than booked time, I’m still expecting to be compensated all the hours initially agreed upon*

Tanielle was so lovely! I was nervous about leaving our toddler for a wedding, because he can have some separation anxiety, but Tanielle made him feel calm almost immediately and reassured us. Can’t say enough good things about her work!

Hi my name is Cynthia. I graduated from East Los Angeles College in Dec. 2021 earning a degree in social and behavioral sciences. I am currently enrolled in nursing school. I have 3 younger siblings who I have babysat. I have worked at a church day care in Texas called Cross Pointe. My tasks consists: change diapers, feed, read bible verses, and interact with children. There came a time where a child was very upset started crying I took action and calmed him down by playing with him. I wanted to become a Nurse because I have a passion for helping people, nurturing and offering my services. I look forward to the experiences and opportunities I can take with me and also the families I get to work with. thank you.

Cynthia was kind, patient, and professional. I felt comfortable with her caring for my baby.

"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."

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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
