Marieke $30 per hour for 1 child

With 16 years of experience as a nanny, I've spent most of that time caring for children between 5 months and 5 years old, and I genuinely love this work. I'm patient, creative, and easygoing, and I quickly build warm, trusting relationships with both kids and parents. I believe communication is key, so I'm happy to keep you updated regularly in whatever style works best for your family. I'm comfortable enforcing house rules consistently, and I love spending time outdoors and incorporating educational activities into our day. I can also help with cooking, carpooling, and swimming supervision, and I'm CPR certified for added peace of mind. Above all, my goal is to be a reliable, supportive caregiver your family can count on.

$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in San Fernando, CA

Hi my name is Aniko. I am from Hungary where I first started out working at the American Embassy as a nanny and baby sitter contributing to many families lives. I have lived in Los Angeles for over 20 years and worked with many high profile families in the film , music and fashion industry. As for me I am the silly friend kids need to have lots of fun and laughter with yet I am also the assertive teacher to discipline them for the creation of healthy boundaries. One of my favourite part of being with kids is reading stories to them in such ways that evokes and stimulates their creative imagination. I also like to take them for those nice walks in the park greeting and recognizing animals and plants. Through these experiences they are able to learn the cycles of nature and understand the inevitable laws of life. I am also good at keeping them engaged with age and developmentally appropriate activities. Keeping their area organized and tidy besides preparing healthy snacks and meals if applicable. I have excellent references from parents and hand written letters from children as well. I have college educational background from Hungary and decades of experience besides the willingness to contribute positively to the children's as well as the parents' lives so we can all feel good working together as a team.

“Aniko is great! We found her at the very last minute after being flaked on by another sitter. She was on time. She took her time with our son to be comfortable with her and was very attentive to him. She also made sure he did allot of activities and even taught him to clean up his toys after. We'll be calling her again! ”

Kaitlyn 1 review
$26 per hour for 1 child

I have 4 years of experience working with children, starting out leading reading programs at a local library, which naturally grew into private nannying for families. That background helped me deeply understand household dynamics, respect family boundaries, and manage personalized routines seamlessly. Alongside my hands-on experience, I have completed coursework in Early Childhood Education, giving me a solid understanding of child development, milestone progression, and positive behavior management. I am CPR/AED certified and Live Scan background-checked, ensuring safety and peace of mind for every family I work with. In my current role as an elementary after-school lead teacher, I design and run creative art, hands-on STEM, culinary projects, and outdoor sports. Managing up to 40 kids at a time has made me exceptionally confident in maintaining structure, keeping routines on track, and enforcing household rules. I am also always happy to assist with homework help, healthy snack and meal prep, and light pickup after activities. While I am warm, approachable, and fun, I am always mature, consistent, and focused on keeping children safe, accountable, and engaged. I am also a huge animal lover , completely pet-friendly!

“We are so lucky to have found Kaitlyn on UrbanSitter. She has been absolutely wonderful with our two children, Sloane and Hudson. Both of them can naturally be quite shy, but Kaitlyn is incredibly welcoming and caring with such a warm heart. She knew exactly how to connect with them, which has really helped them come out of their shells and build their everyday confidence. They absolutely adore her and always look forward to seeing her. We highly recommend Kaitlyn to any family looking for a genuinely nurturing nanny!”

"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)."
