Booked by 49 families in Lemon Grove, CA

Hello! My name is Dina, I love children and believe they are such a blessing. I’m playful with the little ones and adore cuddles with infants. I have recent and extended experience with both. I have occasional and overnight availability. My experience has been with all ages for over 25 years. Five of those years, my experience have been working at a non-profit organization as a child care provider with all ages, including twins! My preference is working for families who offer long term positions. One word that describes me is reliable, I’m extremely reliable and you can rest assured that you can depend on me. I’m also looking for a family that will offer guaranteed hours. I am also up to date with Child and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED / American Red Cross. Thank you and blessings on your search! Dina

Dina went about and beyond. She proactively texted the day before to make sure she had our information. She was on-time and sent tons of photos. Would absolutely hire her again.

Booked by 48 families in Lemon Grove, CA

Hi! My name is Mariagracia, but I go by MG. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish. Recently graduated from San Francisco State University with a major in Environmental Studies. I’ve always loved caring for kids—whether they were cousins, family friends, or neighbors. I’ve worked with children of all ages, from 2 months to 12 years old, and I’m comfortable caring for up to 3 or 4 kids at a time. I’m CPR, AED, and First Aid certified. Safety is always my top priority when working with kids. I can help with homework, school pick-ups, meal/snack prep, daily walks, playdates, swimming, and keeping kids engaged and entertained. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping and tidying up play areas. On top of that, I’ve house sat for multiple families over the years and have experience caring for both dogs and cats—so if you have pets, that’s a big plus for me! I bring a calm, caring, and responsible energy to every family I work with and always aim to create a safe and fun environment for kids to thrive in.

We enjoyed meeting Mariagracia for her first sit with our kids! Hopefully many more to come! She was on time, professional, friendly, and had great chemistry with our girls (1 and 3 y/o). Thanks MG!

“We worry about what a child will become tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone today.” ~ Stacia Tauscher Hello, I am Regina. A teacher, mother and nature lover. In my ten years as an educator I have worn many hats. From Montessori guide, to private, Judaic and play-based schools and also as a behavioral tech for the school district. I have found most success and personal satisfaction as a private nanny and family assistant. I look forward to being a member of your family and providing you the parent peace of mind and your child a safe place to be. Bachelors in education 2024. Infant and pediatric CPR current 2026

Loved working with Regina! Super friendly and down to earth! Very proactive and nurturing with our 10 month old. Looking forward to connecting with her in the future!

Booked by 6 families in Lemon Grove, CA

Hello! I'm Cassandra, a dedicated and caring babysitter with over 6 years of experience working with children of all ages from infants to young teens. I have extensive experience caring for infants and toddlers, ensuring they are safe, happy, and well-attended to. I’ve had the pleasure of working with both individual children and groups, creating safe, engaging, and fun environments whether it’s one-on-one care or managing multiple children at once. Additionally, I have a background in working with children with special needs, offering compassionate support tailored to each child’s individual needs. A significant portion of my experience comes from working with families involved in Al-Anon, a support group for those impacted by someone else's alcohol use. This has given me a deeper understanding of the unique dynamics and challenges these families face, allowing me to provide empathetic and supportive care with a focus on their emotional and practical needs. In addition to my babysitting experience, I’ve volunteered with the Best Day Foundation, teaching children how to surf and helping them learn to boogie board. This experience has further developed my ability to care for kids with disabilities in a meaningful way while encouraging their new skills and confidence. I take pride in creating a nurturing, fun, and educational environment while giving parents peace of mind. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning activities, or providing the extra care some children need, I’m here to make sure your little ones are well cared for. I look forward to meeting your family and helping make your life a little easier!

Cassandra is simply amazing! She is so sweet and down to earth. Our kids really enjoy having her over. She plays games with them and really engages in good conversations with them. We will definitely be having her back.

"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

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)."
