Hello! I would love the opportunity to support your family. I am a 25-year-old graduate student at California State University, Los Angeles, and I currently work as a substitute teacher with LAUSD. Working with children is something I truly enjoy, and I have extensive experience caring for and supporting kids of different ages. I am CPR certified, non-smoking, and very dependable. I also have experience helping children with homework, reading support, arts and crafts, and engaging activities that are both fun and educational. In addition, I am very attentive to maintaining a clean and organized environment, so light housekeeping and cleaning up after the children would never be a problem. I am comfortable around pets and enjoy being in family-oriented environments. Growing up, my mother owned a daycare, which gave me years of hands-on experience caring for children and understanding the importance of patience, structure, and kindness. I would love to learn more about your family and see if I may be a great fit for your needs. Thank you for your time and consideration! :)

Booked by 1 family in Pasadena, CA

Hi! My name is Alexia but I go by Mars! I am 24 years old, and I am an actress and musician. I have been babysitting & nannying children since I was 12, and grew up in a big family so I’ve always been around kids. I have worked with children from newborns to 15 year olds. I have worked with a few great families long term in the past couple of years most recently a job that ended in july, and can provide recent references upon request :) I love taking care of children and am a very creative person so I love doing activities such as drawing, painting, cooking, reading, helping with homework etc. Making sure that they are safe and happy is my top priority. I am fully vaccinated and can provide proof. I am also willing to help with housework and cleaning if necessary. I have a reliable means of transportation as well so if they need rides, I am happy to do so. I am a very responsible and patient person and your child will always be my first priority no matter what. I am available to interview and get to know your family whenever just let me know, I look forward to meeting you and hopefully helping your family out! :)

Mars cared for my 1-year old son for 5 days a week summer 2023 while I worked remotely. She was always on time and communicated clearly throughout the day. Mars is great at following a lunch/nap/snack schedule — so important for children at this age (and mine in particular, really thrives on a schedule). Mars is cautious, caring, and kind. I felt like she always put my child’s interests first.

Booked by 1 family in Pasadena, CA

Hi , my name is Queenie and Fung is my official name. I graduated from East Los Angeles community college. I’m a house wife and a mother of 15 year old son. My family includes my husband, my son and 3 dogs. I enjoy being a babysitter because l love kids. I volunteer at my son’s school, Repetto Elementary School for 3 years, assisting kindergarten teachers with craft projects . Additionally, I have volunteer at the San Gabriel Humane Society Animal Shelter for 8 years, walking with the dogs, doing laundry and helping with events. I also serve as the secretary of the Honor Society at Sunshine Tennis School at Tample City, where my son has been a student for 6 years and my husband volunteers as a coach almost every Sunday morning. Furthermore, I had volunteered at my son’s Boy Scouts workshop at the T286 Troop in Monterey Park since he was 6 years old. Through these experiences, l have learned how to care for and communicate with both children and animals. I cook for my family every day and manage household chores. I am seeking a part time or full time job to continue supporting my family. I hope to hear from you ! l took a Babysitter training with the American Red Cross and also received a certificate on August 3, 2024. I have completed the American Heart Association Basic Life Support (CPR and AED) program and received their certification, along with a First Aid certification card on August 15 and 18, 2024. I attended the CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) basic lifesaving training class at the Monterey Park Fire Department in November 7-10. The CERT certificate will be sent out to participants in a couple of months. I have been caring for a young girl since 2024, starting when she was 9 months old (she is now 2 years and 8 months). Previously, from 2024 to 2025, I spent a year babysitting a 6-year-old girl and her 1-and-a-half-year-old brother.

Re: Applicant- Fung Yeung (Queenie) To Whom It May Concern: It is with great pleasure to write a letter of recommendation for Ms Queenie Yeung. I have been interacting with her since 2018 when she brought her son, Brody to our tennis program. Queenie has been an active volunteer in my tennis school since. This has given me this incredible opportunity to observe her exceptional character. Queenie came to us in 2018 as an open minded and thoughtful individual who was very interested in helping others. In fact, she is one of the most organized helpers who I can assign tasks to. She had acted as a team mom to help her tennis team in planning and logistics. She is also a problem solver and has possessed very positive attitude. I had also asked her to be in charge of our tennis honor society as a secretary in handling our routine operations and parent relations. She demonstrated to be an honest, sincere and responsible person. When we have meetings, she is always punctual and offering great advice to others. Another valuable quality of Queenie is her ability to encourage and positively influence those around her. She has been very patient and observant. She also possesses great communication skills and was able to handle challenges when arises. In summary, Mr. Fung Yeung (Queenie) is an exceptional person with excellent discipline and inquisitive mind. With her strong self-motivation to complete tasks, and positive attitude, she will definitely excel in her career goals. With all these great qualities mentioned above, I will give her my highest recommendation to your organization. Sincerely yours, Antony Lin, MD Founder and Program Director Sunshine Tennis Foundation, NPO located in SCAL Tax ID- 47-1091227

"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)."
