Salome $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a responsible, caring, and experienced babysitter with a background in caring for children from newborns to 12 years old. I am originally from Colombia, and Spanish is my first language. I am also fluent in English, which allows me to communicate easily with bilingual families. I am CPR and AED certified, so I am prepared to respond calmly and effectively in emergency situations. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children while supporting their development at every stage. I also love dancing, painting, and cooking, and I enjoy incorporating creative and engaging activities into my time with children.

Brittany $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Brittany and I’m currently a photography/marketing/film freelance professional. My experience with children truly started around age 10 when I would babysit my nephew. I started babysitting neighborhood children around high school. I also dabbled in tutoring. As an adult, I’m frequently the activity coordinator for my (now 4 nephew’s and 2 baby cousin’s) birthday parties. This past year I had the opportunity to manage a swim school for ages 6months-12years! As the Marketing & General Store Manager - I oversaw our facility while conducting classes of up to 50 children. I was also responsible for running our swim birthday parties, with up to 100 guests. I am CPR, lifeguard, & swim instructor certified.

Christine $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Lemon Grove, CA

I am a caring, patient, and dependable nanny with a strong passion for working with babies and toddlers. I began caring for young children at the age of 15, primarily within my family, which gave me early hands-on experience and a strong sense of responsibility. Over the years, I have become confident in providing consistent, nurturing care during the most important early stages of development. I am comfortable with diaper changes, bottle feeding, nap schedules, tummy time, and age-appropriate play. I pay close attention to children’s cues and needs and focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where babies and toddlers feel secure. I understand the importance of routines and always follow parents’ preferences closely. I am patient during fussy moments, gentle during transitions, and attentive at all times. I enjoy reading, singing, floor play, and helping toddlers explore their world safely. My goal is to support each child’s growth while giving parents peace of mind, knowing their child is being cared for with patience, respect, and genuine love.

"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)."
