Karen $15 per hour for 1 child

The reason why my rates are so low compared to other is because I know the struggle of needing childcare and having no support . I work with kids on the spectrum supporting children from 5-12 years old with behaviors. I have experience with ages ranging from newborn - 12 years old . I am a big listener when it comes to parents expectations of a nanny to their children . My goal is that you feel comfortable leaving your children with me knowing that they are being taken care of the way you would want them to be. The downside about me is that I’m allergic to dogs and cats :( Contact[removed]427

Amara 1 review
$27 per hour for 1 child

I am currently a graduate from IESEG University with my master's. I love kids and supporting moms and families. The babysitters and nannies I had growing up left a strong positive impression on me. I understand the value of being responsible, engaging, and a good role model. I am comfortable with after-school pickup, snacks, homework, and most of all, engaging in fun activities!

I highly recommend Amara!!! Amara worked as my daughter's after-school / part-time babysitter a little over a year ago when my daughter was in first grade...as well as occasionally babysitting her at various times since then. She was great!! She did an amazing job and is great with kids. She picked my daughter up five days a week from school, took her on the subway home (~20 minutes), took her to any activities, and helped with homework, etc. She was very responsible and mature and I felt very safe with her taking care of my daughter and taking her places, and she helped with her homework. My daughter loved her as well- Amara was fun and sweet to her and would "play" with her - fun imaginative things. Anyone would be lucky to have Amara as a sitter! We stopped her using Amara on a daily basis because she was studying abroad in Paris but, since she has been back, have used her a date night sitter.

Hi there, I'm Evie! Your trusted childcare provider with over twelve years of experience working with families from Ireland to New York city and beyond. With a background in newborn care and a passion for creative play I am dedicated to making each day with your child imaginative, joyful and fun! My journey in childcare has allowed me to connect with many wonderful families over the years. I have experience working as a full-time nanny, part time carer and night nurse for newborns. I’ve cared for children aged 0-13, specializing in infant care and toddlers. When not babysitting, you can catch me exploring LA parks or trying out new coffee shops. Reliable, organized and intuitive, I listen to your child's needs and respond in the best way possible for them. I am happy to assist with household upkeep as well, such as laundry, dishes, tidying up, etc. I am seeking part-time employment, (1-2 days a week) date night sitting/ occasional evening care, or temporary nanny/daycare coverage. I am open to more hours with the right fit! I am CPR and First Aid certified with a valid driver's license. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. Thank you!

Lovely experience having Evie watch our baby when we came to LA for a wedding. Calm and experienced, very good with all our specific requests.

Brynn $20 per hour for 1 child

Responsible and caring childcare provider with extensive experience working with children from elementary through middle school. I currently teach Bible lessons at my church, where I lead group activities, organize games, and provide snacks in a fun and supportive environment. I’ve also worked as a counselor for both middle schoolers and elementary students, helping guide and mentor them through engaging activities and positive encouragement. In addition, I babysit for family friends, ensuring their child is safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m dependable, friendly, and attentive, with the ability to cook, clean, and provide reliable transportation for pick-ups and drop-offs. I love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and nurturing setting.

"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)."
