Leslie $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am searching for a family to babysit for starting in late November long-term. I have volunteered at foster camps with kids.I’m a Los Angeles native and Mexican American with over 4 years of babysitting experience on and off during school. I’ve worked with kids of all ages, spending hours caring for them as a certified lifeguard, teaching swim lessons, and even helping coach swim teams. Parents can count on me to bring responsibility, intuition, and reliability to every moment. Right now, I have an open schedule and am very flexible with hours. I’m hoping to work with a family long term, building trust and consistency over time. I have my driver’s license, CPR Certification, and First aid certification. I am open to traveling, I would love to work 5-6 days a week from 9am-5:30. However, I am willing to be flexible. I have a strict rate of $25 the hour because of my experience. Passionate about traveling and being part of the entertainment industry<3

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

Hi, my name is Tatiana and I have a passion for caring for children and supporting families. I've been an aunt from a very young age and have had the joy of helping care for my two nephews (11 and 6 y/o) and niece (1.5 y/o) for many years. I truly treat them as if they were my own, and that experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to create a safe, loving environment for children. I’m new to this app so I don’t have many reviews, but I would appreciate your trust in me! Professionally, I have experience working in a childcare center where I supported children with special needs, as well as in elementary schools with students from Pre-K through 5th grade. My degree in Child Development has strengthened my understanding of children's growth, learning, and emotional needs. Family is very important to me, and I love building meaningful connections with the children and families I work with. I'm dependable, compassionate, patient, and creative. I enjoy engaging children through crafts, outdoor play, educational activities, reading, and imaginative play while always prioritizing their safety and wellbeing. In addition to childcare, I have experience pet sitting and genuinely love animals. Whether I'm caring for children or pets, I always strive to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where everyone feels comfortable, cared for, and supported.

Would absolutely recommend Tatiana! She was flexible, communicative and professional. She exceeded expectations and my son loved her!

Bennett $25 per hour for 1 child

I'm a married, 35 year-old journalist in a transition phase. Previously, I worked for 10 years as a lifeguard and swim instructor, so I have plenty of experience working with children (infants up to young teens). I'm mild-mannered, calm and patient. I have a sweet little dog named Jacuzzi and we often dog-sit for others, so I'm very comfortable around dogs and all kinds of pets. I'm also a bit of a clean freak and organizer, so I don't mind doing stuff around the house or in the yard, etc.

"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)."
