$23 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in San Fernando, CA

Hi, I'm Sydney!! I am 23 years old and would love the opportunity to work for your family. I’m a recent University of California, Santa Barbara graduate with a Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education and Communications. I grew up in a family with two younger siblings, so from the day they were born, I’ve been used to caring for kids and have always enjoyed it. In addition to my family experience, I’ve also been babysitting for families in my neighborhood for as long as I can remember. Whether it was after-school care, weekends, or date nights, I’ve had the opportunity to work with kids of all ages and love creating a safe and fun environment for them. In addition to my nanny experience, I also worked as a camp counselor at Tocaloma Summer Camp, where I was responsible for a group of 13 energetic five-year-olds. This role gave me the opportunity to balance fun and structure while ensuring the safety and happiness of each child. It was such a valuable experience that allowed me to build patience, creativity, and strong leadership skills, as well as a deep appreciation for fostering growth and independence in young children. Most recently, I was part-time as a nanny for a 2-year-old and 5-year-old, where I was responsible for light cleaning, meal prep, transportation to and from cheer camp, and planning engaging daytime activities. I have a driver’s license, my own car, and am CPR and First Aid Certified. Looking forward to the chance to get to know your family!

We will definitely be hiring Sydney as often as possible. My 5 year old son absolutely adored her. He immediately asked when he gonna see her again when she left. She was amazing. Thank you!!!

Victoria $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m originally from Pasadena and now living in North Hollywood. I’ve spent the last few years as a third-grade teacher in Burbank, and I’m currently taking some time away from the classroom to focus on personal projects and plan my wedding with my partner of 8 wonderful years! I hold degrees in Science and Art, along with a Master’s in Education—so I’m well-prepared to help with homework and offer tutoring in a variety of subjects. I genuinely love supporting kids as they grow, learn, and gain confidence. As an artist, I’ve worked with all kinds of materials—from clay and collage to painting and stained glass. I’m always excited to bring creativity into my time with kids, whether that means getting messy with an art project or exploring the outdoors. I’m also a UC-certified Master Gardener and have taught gardening classes in Altadena—I'd love to share that hands-on knowledge with your little ones, too! At home, I’m a proud cat, lizard, and fish mom, so I’m more than comfortable with pets. I’m also passionate about cooking (mostly plant-based!) and am happy to help with meal prep, light cooking, and tidying up around the house—just say the word. Above all, I love being silly and still carry a deep love for childlike fun, imagination, and games. I believe in creating a warm, joyful space where kids feel safe, seen, and encouraged to be themselves. Looking forward to connecting and supporting your family with care, creativity, and lots of heart!

"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)."
