Booked by 8 families in Northridge, CA

Hi parents! I am currently a college student at Glendale college studying for surgical technician. I enjoy being a babysitter and have babysat since I was 14 years old now. I have babysat church families, family friends & even my 3 younger siblings which are all boys! I have done it all starting from driving/picking up from school, practices, tutoring, etc. I can also house or pet sit. I am unfortunately allergic to cats but have a big love for dogs:)

“Leilani was fantastic with our toddler boys! She was punctual and jumped right in, engaging them right away. Our 3 year old son can be reserved, but she kept him so entertained he didn’t want to stop playing! She also did great balancing the needs of both toddlers so that our 1 year old would feel included. She was super pleasant to interact with and we are looking forward to having her again!”

Hi, I’m Rosa! I am an experienced, multi-certified caregiver offering dedicated support for children, pets, and seniors. I understand how important reliable care is. At the moment I am only available for part time or one day jobs. Child Care: I’ve been babysitting since I was 15, working with all ages from newborns to tweens. I’m happy to help with "new mommy" tasks, tummy time, school transport, and creative activities like arts and crafts. Pet & House Sitting: I’ve provided pet and home care since I was 18. Whether it’s long walks, park play, feeding, or bathing, your furry friends are in great hands. I also provide light housekeeping to keep your home running smoothly. Senior Care: Having cared for my own grandfather, I am comfortable assisting seniors with meal prep, driving to appointments, and running errands. I’m also a great Bingo partner!

“Rosa was great with my 90 y.o. Dad — he enjoyed her company and she was very on top of all his care needs and took great care of the house on top of all that. We will def be calling her again.”

I'd describe my personality as fun, positive and energetic I like working with kids because is pleasurable and fun. I'm looking for a job that I am respected, and the family-environment is easygoing. I started working with kids since my 15 years old. In my spare time, I like to be outdoors, hike, spend time with my dog and my cat. Painting, coloring, cooking.. One thing you should know about me is I'm a good heart and straightforward. Also drama free and I will take care of your children as my own. My skills include CPR, help development and breathing work/meditation lessons with kids.

"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)."
