Booked by 2 families in Lynwood, CA

Hello, my name is Marleen. Although I’m only 19 years old I am very experienced with taking care of children with care and lots of patience. I just got on this app which is why I have few reviews but I’ve been babysitting for about two years now. I am an older sister of three siblings 14, 12, and 9 years old. I have been surrounded with kids/ babies my whole life. At just the age of nine I was in charge of taking care of my siblings. I would and still take care of them on a daily basis. I know that at times things could get chaotic but I am the best fit for that task. I have also babysit for my fellow friends and family members. I could also pet sit if that’s needed. If you need help with chores around the house I’m willing to help too but with a raise. If there is any specific things needed to do I will be gladly to do them. I am very familiar with soccer, track, xc, and basketball as I played all these sports in high school. I love to stay active!

Jannet 3 reviews
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m a reliable and nurturing caregiver with over 10 years of experience caring for children, seniors, and pets. I’m patient, organized, and truly enjoy helping others feel comfortable and cared for. Families describe me as dependable, warm, and detail-oriented—I always go above and beyond to make sure everyone’s needs are met. Whether it’s keeping your pets happy, supporting an active household, or assisting an elderly loved one, I treat every client like family.

Jannet has been absolutely wonderful with our family. She is dependable, caring, and truly attentive to my child’s needs. From the first time she babysat for us, she made everything feel effortless—she communicated clearly, arrived on time, and immediately built a great connection with my child. She follows instructions perfectly, keeps the home organized, and always checks in with updates so we feel at ease while we’re away. Jannet is calm, patient, and incredibly responsible. I trust her completely, and I’m grateful to have found someone so reliable. I highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and professional sitter.

Booked by 1 family in Lynwood, CA

Hi, I’m Dominique! 👋 I’m a 23-year-old UCLA graduate with a genuine love for working with kids. Whether it’s keeping up with energetic toddlers or helping older kids with homework after school, I bring patience, warmth, and a lot of enthusiasm to every sit. I have experience with children ages 1–10 and especially enjoy the toddler and elementary years. There’s nothing better than watching kids learn and grow. As a college grad, I’m also happy to help with reading, basic math, or any homework your little one brings home. Parents can count on me to be attentive, communicative, and always put safety first. I treat every child in my care the way I’d want my own family to be treated; with kindness, structure, and plenty of fun. I’d love to meet your family! 😊 (I do drive as well)

Milan 2 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Milan, and I offer child care, non-medical senior care, house sitting, errand running and household services. I graduated from Howard University with my bachelor's degree and recently earned my master's degree from University of Southern California. Over the past few years, I've worked in residential life, summer programs, and student support, where I helped supervise students, plan activities, provide mentorship, and create safe, welcoming environments. Those experiences strengthened my patience, communication, and ability to stay calm and organized. For child care, I'm happy to help with homework, reading, arts and crafts, games, bedtime routines, meal prep, transportation, and light housekeeping. I enjoy keeping kids engaged while making sure they feel safe, supported, and have fun. I also provide non-medical senior care and companionship. Whether it's running errands, grocery shopping, meal preparation (I love cooking and baking!) transportation to appointments, light household tasks, or simply providing company, I'm happy to help make everyday life a little easier. In addition, I'm available for house sitting and can bring in mail, water plants, take out trash bins, and help keep your home secure while you're away. I'm dependable, organized, and easy to communicate with. I know how important it is to trust the person coming into your home, and I strive to treat every family with kindness, respect, and professionalism. Please note: I have an allergy to animal fur, so I'm unfortunately unable to work in homes with cats, dogs, or other furry pets.

Milan has been my babysitter for my four children for the past couple of years, and I have nothing but the utmost respect and admiration for the care and dedication she has shown my family. She has consistently gone above and beyond in every aspect of her role, and I truly cannot recommend her highly enough. One of the things that has impressed me most is her ability to connect with each of my children on an individual level. She helped my son, who was struggling in math, by patiently working with him and encouraging him to stay motivated. Thanks in part to her support, he improved from earning D’s to becoming a B student. Seeing that kind of progress speaks volumes about her patience, commitment, and genuine investment in the children she cares for. Milan is incredibly reliable and dependable. I have always been able to count on her to pick up and drop off my children safely, make sure they arrive at karate and dance classes on time, and keep our family’s schedule running smoothly. Knowing my children are in responsible hands has given me tremendous peace of mind. She is also highly professional. She follows instructions carefully, asks thoughtful questions whenever clarification is needed, and communicates exceptionally well. She keeps me informed, is respectful of our family’s routines and expectations, and consistently demonstrates maturity and sound judgment. Beyond meeting responsibilities, Milan creates a positive, engaging environment for my children. She plans fun, educational activities that keep them entertained while helping them learn and grow. She is kind, patient, and nurturing, while also knowing when to be firm and maintain appropriate boundaries. My children absolutely adore her and genuinely look forward to spending time with her. Milan has been an invaluable part of our family’s support system. Her experience, reliability, professionalism, and genuine love for children make her an outstanding caregiver. I recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for someone they can trust completely with their children.

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 5 families in Lynwood, CA

Hi there! My name is Kenia, I’m 27 years old, and I hold a bachelor’s degree in Child Development. I genuinely love working with children. Their curiosity, sense of humor, and the unexpected moments they bring make every day enjoyable and meaningful. I’ve worked at Beach Babies (a school and daycare) and at Art Zone, caring for children ranging from newborns to 10 years old. Both roles allowed me to build strong, trusting relationships with the kids and their families, and I truly loved every moment of it. I bring a calm, patient, and playful approach to caregiving. I’m also reliable, understanding, and adaptable to each child’s unique personality and needs. With close to a decade of experience, I feel confident in caring for children of any age and creating a safe, nurturing environment. I’d be honored to bring my experience and energy to your family and hope to connect with you soon! Warmly, Kenia

"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)."
