Hi, my name is Kathy and I am currently a nursery supervisor at my church. I am offering childcare services. I love being a babysitter and I have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids, since I was 17 years old. My responsibilities have included helping with schoolwork, feeding, changing diapers, crafts, nap time, singing, and etc. I am also bilingual, I speak both Spanish and English fluently. Due to my work I am background checked and I have a First Aid, Child CPR, EpiPen, Basic Life Support and AED certification. I am allergic to cats but I’m okay working with families that have dogs.

Maci $20 per hour for 1 child

I’ve been babysitting for almost 4 years now. I started off with years of vacation bible school, then childcare at church every Sunday. I am very active personally so I like to do the same with the kids; art, reading, learning to cook, nature walks, etc. I have done senior care at a mental health facility as well, pet sitting, house sitting. I have very open availability as I’m attending college online. Can’t wait to meet you!

Hello,  I have worked as a helping hand for busy parents in prioritizing their kid's needs by showing them compassion and patience. Through my guidance, I can show them to be gentle and to help encourage them to become the best they can be. I also speak English, and Spanish and am currently learning a new language, Italian. In the course of being a nanny, I have taught children to speak Spanish.    I have five years of babysitting experience, but I have more than that. Growing up with siblings, I was my mother’s helper, and I could manage caring for multiple children at once. I ensure they’re engaged in exciting, safe, and educational activities.    My experiences and personal skills make me an ideal candidate for your family. I hope to hear from you soon.    Best Regards, Katie

Jackson $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jackson, and I’ve spent the last 4–5 years working with children ages 1–18 in a wide range of settings. I’m currently a Behavioral Technician at an elementary school, where I provide daily support in SPED classrooms. I specialize in working with autistic children and have experience both as a 1:1 in-home support provider and in full classroom environments. I’ve cared for toddlers, school-age kids, teens, and students with diverse needs. My responsibilities have included but are not limited to diaper changes, homework help, behavior management and intervention, implementing individualized behavior plans, and overall providing any help that a child or parent might need. I’m also comfortable with general household support such as cleaning, meal prep, and keeping routines structured and consistent. In addition to childcare, I have two years of experience in elder care, including assisting with daily tasks, transportation, companionship, and helping to maintain a safe, supportive environment. A little about me personally: I’m born and raised in Los Angeles, and I’m studying music production while working in education. I’m patient, creative, organized, and I genuinely love building trust with the families I work with. Whether you need someone reliable for after-school care, structured behavioral support, or a calm presence at home, I’m happy to help!

"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."

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)."
