Hi, I’m Sharyce! I’m a certified CNA and a licensed cosmetologist with a deep passion for caring for others. I’m a proud wife and mother to three wonderful children, and we share our home with our dog, Xeno, and a tortoise named Squirtle. I’ve been surrounded by children my entire life and have been caring for them since I was 12 years old. Whether it’s children, pets, or the elderly, caregiving is truly my calling. I’ve been working as a CNA for nearly two years now and absolutely love what I do. I’m a naturally creative, patient, and loving person, and I always bring those qualities into the care I provide.

Booked by 2 families in Northridge, CA

Hi, I'm a dedicated childcare professional, preschool teacher, and proud mom who genuinely loves helping children learn, grow, and feel safe and supported. Families describe me as kind, dependable, communicative, and easy to work with. I believe strong relationships with both children and parents are built on trust, transparency, and open communication, and those are values I bring to every family I work with. I have a background in psychology and hold two Associate degrees in Child Development with concentrations in Early Childhood Education and Special Education. My experience includes working as a preschool teacher, babysitter, nanny, and mother, giving me a well-rounded understanding of children's developmental, emotional, and educational needs. I'm an outdoorsy, creative, and affectionate caregiver who loves singing, dancing, reading stories, making art, and turning everyday moments into fun learning opportunities. I enjoy following children's interests while creating routines that help them feel secure, confident, and engaged. Childcare has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My mother worked as a nanny in different parts of the world, and I was fortunate to grow up alongside the families she cared for. Watching her taught me the importance of patience, flexibility, and building meaningful connections with children and parents alike. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have a clear background check and fingerprint clearance, and am committed to providing the highest level of care. Whether you need occasional support or a long-term caregiver, I would love the opportunity to be a trusted, nurturing presence in your child's life. I look forward to connecting with your family!

Kimberly was an incredible babysitter for our son Van! From the moment we connected, she was kind, caring, and professional. She kept us updated throughout the evening with thoughtful texts and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares and is passionate about what she does. Van was comfortable and happy with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Kimberly is everything we were hoping for in a sitter—and more. We will absolutely be using her again (and again)!

Hello! I’m Samari, an 18-year-old dual-enrolled student with experience in childcare, household tasks, and pet care. Prices is not set and is negotiated by the hr :) I enjoy working with children and aim to pursue a career in this field. Since age 13, I’ve been caring for children from 3 months old to older, handling tasks like school pickup, tutoring, playing, and caring for their daily needs and early development, whether with or without parents present (like during work or errands). I also provide household help, including cooking, cleaning, and running errands (I have a driver’s license). If you have pets, I’d Also be happy to help care for them. I understand that parents often have strict schedules for their children, and I am committed to following them diligently. My current and past experience: ————————————————————- • Since early summer, I’ve been working at a childcare play center. • I attend COC for my Child Development and Education degree and the Hart District school for my diploma. • I have babysat multiple toddlers simultaneously on several occasions.

Samari was very professional and i look forward to working with her again. My son did not want her to leave! He has an amazing time during her care.

Gulnara 5 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Maya! I’m a caring, dependable, and experienced caregiver with nearly a decade of experience working with children, seniors, and families. I also have experience with pet care, house sitting, and running errands. I recently relocated from Chicago to Los Angeles to be closer to my only daughter and am excited to begin this new chapter. I’m originally from the Republic of Georgia and also speak fluent Russian. I have a BA in Economics and Finance, but caring for people has always been something that feels especially meaningful to me. There is nothing more rewarding than knowing I’ve made someone’s day a little easier—and caring for children is particularly joyful for me. As a mother myself, I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable and confident with the person caring for your little ones. Trust, safety, patience, and reliability are things I take very seriously. Over the years, my responsibilities have included school and activity transportation, helping with daily routines, preparing meals, light housekeeping, and running errands. I’m happy to help with the little things that keep a household running smoothly. I genuinely enjoy cooking, keeping things tidy, and being someone a family can depend on. I have no allergies and am comfortable with pets. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted and reliable part of your family’s support system. ❤️

Gulnara has been my daughter’s full time nanny for the past 10 months, she started when my daughter was 2 mo. I’m very happy with our choice. Gulnara (aka Maya) is very attentive to my daughter, she provides great care. She also speaks different languages which is a big advantage when you have a child. My daughter adores Gulnara. I would highly recommend her.

"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)."
