Hello! My name is Daniela, I’ve worked with kids since I was 15 years old. I am a college student studying education.

Leilani $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Leilani. I am currently finishing school to become a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN), and in the meantime, I am working as a nanny. I have several years of experience caring for children, including my cousins and siblings. I genuinely love working with kids and find it to be a joyful and rewarding experience. I'm patient, responsible, and attentive, and I always strive to create a safe and fun environment for the children in my care. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, visiting them whenever | can. I also love painting, going to the park or the beach, and reading. These hobbies help me stay creative and active, which I like to bring into my work with children as well. I hope to connect with a family soon and would love the opportunity to support and care for your children.

Dominique $25 per hour for 1 child

Very loyal and very protective. When it comes to people especially kids I’m very protective as if they’re one of my own. Im an Uncle and though I’m not the father of my nieces I’m feel like they’re my kids. I would do anything for them or my family. I feel above all we have to do our part as human beings to protect the upcoming youth. Not just because their kids but because their innocent and deserve that protection.

Brenda 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in San Pedro, CA

Hi, I’m Brenda! I’ve spent the last 8 years working with kids in classroom settings, supporting both general education and special education students ages 5–16. I hold a Special Education teaching credential and have 4 years of experience as a special education teacher for 2nd, 3rd, and 9th grades. I have also worked as a nanny and tutor with children ages 1- 19years old. Working closely with children of different abilities has taught me patience, creativity, and how to meet kids where they are. I offer babysitting, tutoring, house sitting, cooking, pet sitting, and elderly care. I genuinely love spending time with children—whether that’s helping with homework, baking together, heading to the park or museum, or cheering them on at sports practice. I also enjoy swimming, running, and staying active, which helps me keep up with energetic kids. I’m reliable, caring, and hands-on, and I always aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and parents feel confident.

“Brenda was beyond expectations in helping with rides, household tasks and cooking. Dependable, kind and a easy to work with. Would definitely recommend!”

"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)."
