Mayra Los Angeles
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Los Angeles, CA

Dear Parents, my name is Mayra. I’ve been a nanny since I was 18, which means I have over 7 years of experience doing something I truly love! Being around children brings me so much joy, and I love creating a fun, safe, and happy environment for them. During my undergrad, I nannied for two families and cared for multiple kids at once. My days included school pick-ups and drop-offs, driving to activities, meal prep, tidying up after the kids, and keeping things running smoothly. I’m great at juggling busy schedules while still making sure kids feel supported, cared for, and entertained. I’d describe myself as bubbly, patient, and playful, but also responsible and dependable. I love getting down on the floor to play, doing crafts, reading stories, and keeping kids engaged, all while following routines and making sure everyone is safe and happy. I take pride in being someone they feel comfortable and excited to be around! A little about me: I’m organized, communicative, and always show up with a positive attitude. I truly enjoy building connections with families and becoming someone they can count on. I’d love to meet your family and help make your days a little easier!

"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
