Booked by 1 family in San Pedro, CA

Hello- my name is Adriana. I absolutely adore children and love prioritizing educational and fun adventures! I have a background in babysitting and have a 15 year old daughter myself. I’m bilingual, love all things outdoorsy (so I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty), and I’m great with animals.

Adriana is fantastic. She did a phenomenal job watching my 4 year old Daughter. She was timely, professional, and very communicative. Highly recommend. Would hire again!

Marigo $22 per hour for 1 child

I’m a dependable, nurturing mom of two (an 18-year-old daughter and a 14-year-old son) with years of hands-on experience caring for children at different stages. I currently work full time, in Gardena, CA, but I’m excited to offer afternoon and evening care during the week after 2:30 PM. I also have a 5-year-old Malshi that I absolutely love and adore, so I’m very comfortable around pets and happy in homes with animals. I’ve volunteered for over 11 years with both the Ronald McDonald House and monthly outreach in Skid Row, which has shaped my patience, compassion, and ability to connect with people from all walks of life. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every child with the same care and respect I give my own. CPR/FIRST AID/AED Instructor • Certified in Infant & Adult CPR • First Aid Certified •

Li $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a Chinese–English bilingual storyteller at the Palos Verdes Peninsula Library with over eight years of experience working closely with young children and their families. I have taught at Palos Verdes Nursery School, South Bay Montessori School, Nihao Chinese School, and Bilingual Brains Early Learning Academy. I specialize in designing and leading highly successful “Parents & Me” programs, helping infants and toddlers feel safe, connected, and confident in their earliest social experiences. I genuinely love children and find deep joy in caring for them. I have extensive hands-on experience babysitting infants, toddlers, and school-age children, including twins. My responsibilities have included school drop-off and pick-up, arts and crafts, tutoring, and introducing children to Mandarin in a playful, nurturing way. In addition, I have experience caring for my own grandparents and am comfortable providing senior care, including cooking, driving to appointments, and offering thoughtful daily support. I am patient, attentive, and naturally nurturing, and I take pride in creating a warm, safe, and loving environment for people of all ages.

"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)."
