Dominique $25 per hour for 1 child

Very loyal and very protective. When it comes to people especially kids I’m very protective as if they’re one of my own. Im an Uncle and though I’m not the father of my nieces I’m feel like they’re my kids. I would do anything for them or my family. I feel above all we have to do our part as human beings to protect the upcoming youth. Not just because their kids but because their innocent and deserve that protection.

Booked by 1 family in Los Alamitos, CA

Hi! I'm Mia, a patient, attentive, caring, and dependable person with reliable transportation. I’m offering child care, pet care, senior services, and household services! I have experience babysitting younger children in my family as young as 10 months old. I truly enjoy keeping kids engaged, safe, and happy while also following their routine. I have lots of experience cooking for family as well and meal prepping. I also love animals! I have dog-sat plenty of times, and l'm a dog owner myself of 2 bichon poos, though I am open to any size of animal. I have experience of owning a cat as well. A little fun fact about me is I was a dancer for 4 years, so a lot of my leadership skills and responsibility comes from my experience being in dance. I am a very reliable person including when it comes to being able to run errands and provide transportation. You can count on me ! :)

“Mia was professional, courteous, dependable and respectful. She handled every task with patience and with a positive attitude. My child felt supported and comfortable around her.”

Felicia 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Felicia, I work as a preschool teacher in a Montessori classroom and spend my days with kids ages one to five. I'm CPR and First Aid certified and currently finishing a psychology degree. I have multiple years of experience in early childhood education and hospital bedside care with children ages 0-17. I'm comfortable with all ages, along with meals, naps, potty training, outdoor and art play. Happy to hear about your family and what you need!

“I highly recommend Felicia for any babysitting or childcare role. She has cared for our two boys (ages 10 months and 3 years) and has proven to be incredibly reliable, professional, and trustworthy. Juggling the needs of an infant and a toddler is no easy task, but Felicia does so with ease and patience. She is fantastic at keeping our 3-year-old safely entertained while seamlessly managing the routine and care for our 10-month-old. She is punctual, attentive, and wonderful with kids. I would gladly hire her again and recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for top-tier childcare.”

"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)."
