Natalie $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Natalie and I just moved back to Los Angeles after living in Hawaii for 3.5 years. I absolutely love working with kids and helping people in any way I can. I’ve been babysitting since I was 16, was a camp counselor for ages 8–13, and nannied a 1-year-old for four months. I love bringing creativity and nature into everything I do whether that’s baking, painting, exploring outside, or coming up with fun activities. I’m reliable, kind, and easygoing, and I always bring high, positive energy wherever I go.

Shahrzad $25 per hour for 1 child

a child's growth and development is my true passion, and I have dedicated the past 10 years to making a positive impact on the lives of the families I support. My approach is patient, calm, and approachable, ensuring that children feel secure and encouraged. I am highly comfortable enforcing household rules to maintain consistency for your little ones. Because I love staying active, I enjoy engaging children in outdoor sports and physical games. I hold current CPR Training to ensure safety at all times. I am happy to assist with cooking, meal preparation, and travel. I prioritize your preferences for communication, whether through verbal updates at pickup or regular texts. I am comfortable caring for up to two children across all age groups. I look forward to becoming a trusted partner in your family's daily life. Currently working at a school during the week, caring for and supporting children in a school setting. I have extensive experience working with children of different ages and am comfortable providing safe, nurturing, and engaging care. I am currently looking for a childcare/nanny position specifically on Saturdays. I am dependable, experienced, and able to provide transportation, prepare meals, organize activities, and support children’s daily needs. I am an animal lover and comfortable around all types of pets. I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and am happy to help with pets as part of my childcare responsibilities.

Jessi $30 per hour for 1 child

I've been a nanny for 10 years now and I truly enjoy the profession and love to watch the children I take care of grow and learn and to be a positive influence in their lives. I've worked with kids of many different ages ranging from newborns to 12 years old. I also have close to 2 years of teaching experience. I'm happy to work long shifts and do overnights and have experience doing so! I'm open to various different schedules, so feel free to reach out if you feel I could be a good fit for your position. I look forward to meeting you!

Nathalia $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My love and care for engaging with children and helping them grow inspired me to pursue a BA in Child & Adolescent Development at CSUN. I've learned a lot about the social and emotional sciences of children and healthy ways of disciplining. I'm very fascinated with shaping a child to be a vocal, positive, ambitious and kind person. After all, they are the future! I have successfully cared for toddlers and school aged for the past 5 years through a school environment and private nannying/and babysitting. I've been responsible for school drop-offs and pick-ups, tutoring sessions, playtime activities. I find myself loving 1-on-1 childcare environments and am looking for my next opportunity to help a child thrive on their own individual journey. I'm hoping to bring my nurturing and positive attitude to an active, engaging home.

Parents who have entrusted me to care for their children, pets, homes have said that I have a natural ability to anticipate needs, stay calm under pressure, and create a safe, positive environment. I'm responsible, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with children. As an actor and creative person, I love engaging kids through imaginative play, reading, arts and crafts, games, and outdoor activities. I'm also happy to help with homework, meal preparation, school pickups, bedtime routines, and light household tasks. My goal is to make children feel supported, safe, and encouraged while giving parents confidence that everything is being handled with care and attention. I am literally the go-to for random unanticipated scenarios. Forgot your bridesmaids dress in you car at the flyaway and need someone to go to your house, grab the key, find the car in the flyaway parking lot, grab the dress, drive to LAX, and hand it over to you? I’m your girl. Yes, that’s a true story and she made her flight! I was the hero of that wedding and I didn’t even know the bride or groom. I’m able to quickly assess what a situation needs to ensure a calm and safe environment for children. I’ve handled bed times for double date nights when the couples would be expected home late. One of their daughters (6) was having trouble sleeping. I checked in on her every 15 minutes after she went to bed and she’d be awake, but she told me she lies awake for a long time before actually being able to sleep. So I asked her to close her eyes and travel in her mind to a beach. She can hear her parents laughing in the background, her sister playing in the sand, she herself is lying down on the beach. The sound of the ocean is blurring all other conversation, the wind is singing through the air, birds can be heard faintly… I saw her pupils picturing everything through her closed eyelids when I first started the exercises, but the movement eventually slowed down to a stop and she was fast asleep. That’s probably the best off the cuff success story I have. Anyway, I hope to hear from you! Thank you for your consideration!

"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)."
