Hi parents! I am a kind, creative, and patient nanny. I have five years of experience, and currently work with a family Friday - Sunday. I have experience with kiddos 0-13 years old and love engaging them in active and creative play. I love the happy chaos of working with siblings and currently work as a live-in weekend nanny for a family with 2 kids, ages 10 and 12. I'm happy to help with light meal and snack prep, kid related tidying, and I have a clean driving record with a safe, insured car. I am warm and communicative, and love working with families that are the same!

Vanessa Los Angeles
$25 per hour for 1 child

I'm CPR and First Aid certified, with over 14 years of experience in early childhood education through Early Head Start and Preschool Head Start programs, where I supported infants, toddlers, and preschoolers with compassion and structure. As a nursing student at West Coast University, I bring a deep understanding of health, wellness, and patient-centered care into every caregiving role. I’ve provided hands-on care for my two godsons from infancy to age three, regularly babysit my nieces and nephews, and create safe, engaging environments tailored to each child’s needs. I’m also a proud dog mom to three, comfortable with pet care routines and the joy animals bring to families. Known for my nice-spirited and uplifting nature, I connect easily with people of all ages, adapting intuitively to changing dynamics. I love crafting creative activities, communicate with emotional intelligence, and maintain organized, welcoming spaces that support both children and families

Gabriela Los Ángeles
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello everybody! My name is Gabriela, but everyone calls me Gaby. I’m new in the app, that’s why I don’t have reviews yet. I have 4 years of experience caring for children between the ages of 1 and 7. I am a responsible, confident, and dedicated person with a strong passion for childcare. I truly enjoy spending quality time with kids, whether it’s doing creative activities, going for walks, or spending time at the park. I’m a native Spanish speaker and I can speak and understand English well which allows me to work with bilingual families or support children in learning a second language. I’m still practicing to improve my fluency. I’m comfortable communicating and always open to learning more every day. I can also prepare basic meals and help with daily routines as needed. I love watching children grow, learn, and explore the world. I always strive to create a safe, loving, and fun environment for them.

"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)."
