Ashley 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Ashley and I’m so happy you’ve found your way to my profile. Caring for children has been such an important part of my life for the past seven years and it’s so much more than a job to me. It’s truly something I love and feel deeply called to do. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with children of all ages from tiny newborns fresh into the world, to curious toddlers exploring everything around them, all the way up to independent 5th graders discovering who they are. Every stage of childhood is unique and I feel honored to be part of those precious milestones. In addition to my childcare experience, I’m also a full-spectrum doula currently focusing on postpartum care supporting families as they adjust, heal and find their rhythm during those early months with their new baby. Outside of work, I enjoy hobbies that spark creativity and balance: gardening, cooking, reading, sewing, skating and crocheting. If you’re looking for someone who brings not just experience but also heart, I would love the chance to connect with you. Whether your family needs someone to nurture a newborn baby, engage a curious toddler or simply provide an extra layer of support, I’d be honored to help. Childcare is about so much more than watching children—it’s about building relationships, supporting growth and creating a sense of love and stability that children carry with them.

“I cannot recommend Ashley highly enough as a childcare provider. I’ve known her my whole life and she has always been naturally gifted at caring for children. She is reliable, professional, and brings a warmth and calm that makes kids feel comfortable and parents feel at ease. What makes Ashley special is her genuine love for what she does. To her, childcare is not just a job but truly a calling. Families can always count on her to be dependable, patient, and caring. I know any child in her care will feel supported, nurtured, and safe. If you are looking for someone with both professional teaching experience and a genuine heart for children, Ashley is someone you can fully trust.”

I’m a first-year Environmental Studies major studying at UCR but originally from LA. I have years of childcare experience, caring for children from infants to age 10 since I was ten. I’m American Red Cross Basic Water Rescue certified and have worked with kids across LA County through Girl Scouts and as a YMCA camp counselor. I’m patient, responsible, and energetic. I love planning outdoor activities like picnics, water play, and creative adventures, as well as encouraging a love for reading. I'm also experienced with dogs as I have three little ones of my own.

Hello, wonderful families! My name is Karlene, and I’m a 36-year-old career nanny with 17 years of childcare experience and 11 years of housekeeping expertise. I would love the opportunity to apply for your position! Throughout my career, I’ve cared for children ranging in age from 1 month to 16 years, including preemies, twins, multiple siblings, and nanny shares. I specialize in key developmental milestones such as sleep training, baby-led weaning, and potty training. Childcare has always been my passion, and my journey began when I helped care for my nephew many years ago. Since then, my love for nurturing and supporting children has only grown stronger. In addition to childcare, I bring extensive experience in household management. I have successfully managed homes with up to three stories and over 10 rooms, ensuring everything runs smoothly with little to no supervision. My housekeeping skills include meal preparation for a variety of dietary needs, including vegetarian, kosher, and nut-free meals. I’m also happy to assist with meal prep as needed. I take pride in being active and engaging with children. I love organizing arts and crafts, helping with homework, and supporting after-school activities such as soccer, swimming, baseball, and football. I’m also skilled in handling school pick-ups and drop-offs, preparing lunches, snacks, and dinners, and ensuring children have a fun and structured day. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking, baking, hiking, swimming, camping, and staying active with sports. I am CPR/AED certified, giving families peace of mind when it comes to safety. I’m currently seeking a full-time or part-time, long-term position with the right family. If you think we’d be a good match or have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I look forward to the opportunity to connect with you and your family! Thank you so much for your time and consideration. Warm regards, Karlene

“Karlene is punctual, observant, and very gentle with our little one. thank you for helping out! ”

"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)."
