Montebello
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Los Angeles, CA

Hello, my name is Mallory and I am a UCLA graduate with extensive experience working with children and families. I previously served as a Site Coordinator for the UCLA After School Program, where I provided academic enrichment, coordinated workshops, and supported daily programming for elementary students in transitional kindergarten through fifth grade. I have also worked as a nanny for several families, caring for children from one to seven years old, managing school pick-ups and drop-offs, preparing meals, traveling with families, and providing light household and pet care. My childcare journey began even earlier as a swim instructor, where I taught babies as young as four months through adolescence. These roles taught me patience, adaptability, and the importance of creating safe, structured, and nurturing environments where children can grow and thrive. Families describe me as warm, reliable, and proactive. Beyond childcare, I bring strong organizational skills, supporting with errands, household management, and ensuring family routines run smoothly. For me, caregiving is more than supervision, it is about being a steady, positive presence in children’s lives and giving parents the peace of mind that their family is cared for with consistency and love.

James adored you. You did great with James and were very professional and reliable. He really responded to you while you babysat him. Definitely booking you again!

Hello! My name is Amariya, and I’m currently a dental assistant trying to figure out what I want to do next. I’m offering childcare, senior care, and household services. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15 years old. I’ve watched newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) and have taken on various responsibilities, such as driving to and from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. In addition to babysitting, I also work as a household assistant. I can cook, clean, and run errands. I’m also a great bridge partner! I’m allergic to cats, but I’m happy to work with families that have dogs.

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
