Booked by 2 families in Los Angeles, CA

Hi there! I’m a 25-year-old Psychology major, fluent in both English and Spanish, and I’ve been working as a nanny/child care provider for over 3 years. Caring for kids has always been a passion of mine, and it all started when I began looking after my younger sister as a teen! I’m currently seeking side gigs, occasional, or part-time babysitting opportunities where I can bring fun, positivity, and my child development knowledge into the mix. As a child psychology major, I love using what I’ve learned to support emotional and cognitive growth through activities that are both fun and educational. I’m always punctual, reliable, and never call off. Plus, I have my own car, so I’m able to be on time and take kids on outings if that’s something you’d like. And of course, I’m CPR certified for peace of mind. I love creating a fun environment for kids, whether we’re playing indoors or outdoors. I’m all about making sure they have a blast while staying safe!

Hi there! I’m Zoe and I’m a nanny based out of Los Angeles! I’ve been nannying on and off for 15 years and I absolutely love it. I have always been so passionate about children and being around them gives me the most joy. I have worked with kids from newborns to 12 years old. I also have three nephews that I have helped raise ages 2, 5 and 7 who are my whole world! I would love to help you and your family and make sure your little one is in the best hands possible!

Kai $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I'm Kai, and I've been a caregiver for the past 21 years. I have non-medical/various medical experience with all ages, as I come from a background of nurses. I am an aspiring nurse and want to specialize in Neonatal care. I love children, animals, seniors, and people in general. I smile a lot, I'm playful, and believe it takes a loving person to help others near or far. I take care of hospice patients all over LA through a nursing agency and I love it. I'm open to a plethora of assignments and have worked with children of various conditions in the past, and my goal is to take the weight off your shoulders, and be here for you. I love cooking, cleaning, organizing, packing/unpacking if you're moving, decorating, doing arts and crafts, conversing, and so much more. I am a mother myself to a loving 10 year old girl who means the world to me. I don't do much driving like I used to because I have very sensitive eyes, but it doesn't interfere with my daily tasks, as I do not allow it to. Thank you for stopping by, and remember that we all deserve to be who we are with good intentions and equality. I also have a clean background which it'll forever remain that way. 💖✨️🤗

Hello, I'm Damaris! I have over 10 years of experience caring for children from 4 months to 15 years old, and I love what I do. I am a kind, caring, patient, and responsible caregiver who enjoys creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment for children. With me, your children will enjoy a variety of activities: reading stories, playing, doing crafts, singing, dancing, exploring nature, and even learning Spanish if they wish. I also love animals, so pets are never a problem. I have an impeccable driving record and feel comfortable driving children to their activities. I will gladly provide excellent references upon request. My rate is flexible and depends on the job, hours, and responsibilities.

Booked by 76 families in Los Angeles, CA

Hi! I'm Destiny! I've been babysitting and nannying for 11 years and have experience with overnights, full-time and part-time care, traveling, nanny pods, occasional babysitting, and watching over multiples (twins/ triplets) :) I have experience caring for all ages, from newborns to 15 years old, with the majority of my experience focused on newborns through 6-year-olds. This past year, I worked as a long-term Kindergarten substitute, and I'm currently working toward my teaching credential and Master's in Education. I enjoy working with children and getting to know their little personalities while building genuine, trusting connections. I'm patient, attentive, reliable, and responsible, while still being energetic and engaging. I love spending time outdoors, doing crafts, visiting museums, going on bike rides, and creating opportunities for kids to learn, have fun and just be kids. There’s no better feeling than hearing “you’re the best babysitter ever.” Looking forward to connecting with your family!

Destiny immediately and naturally connected with all 3 of my kids ages 8-3, boys and girls. She jumped right in helping out with everything they needed while also being super fun with them. Our 8 yr old girl was sad when she was leaving and asked when she’d be back! Highly recommend

"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)."
