Background: I have taught in preschool settings all around the LA area for about 9 years now with primarily the 2-5 age range. My background is in child development which I’ve studied in college. I got into the field when I interned at a local family resource center where I organized lesson plans and play groups for infants and toddlers. I consider myself a lifelong learner and study the Reggio Emilia approach and RIE philosophy with a passion as it tends to inspire my provocations. I am currently a part time teacher at a child development center in Ventura, California - that focuses on nature-based learning, also known as the outdoor classroom approach. I also have some previous full/part time nannying experience (with infants/toddlers). About Me: I enjoy going to coffee shops, hitting the gym, lap swimming, walking my dog, baking and traveling to tropical places! I speak fluent English and Spanish Fine Print: •4 hour minimum per booking •Short Notice Cancellation Fee: 50% of booking total if cancelled within 24hrs of start time. •If anyone in your household has been sick within 72 hours of booking, please cancel said booking. I do not consent to working with sick children. I work with multiple families, including infants, and I want to ensure the health and well-being of everyone involved. I will also be transparent about my own health status. •All hours booked are considered “guaranteed hours” in terms of pay, even if I am relieved early or for any other reason. •Cash, Zelle and Venmo preferred! 😊

WHAT A RARE FIND!!!! We hired Andrea for our stay at the Ojai Valley Inn - which she was totally familar with / comfortable with the property - to watch our 10 month old. It was the first time I've left my daughter with someone other than her nanny, so I was a little nervous, but Andrea's calm and loving presence, matched with her clear expertise, immediately put me at ease. I serve on my son's preschool board, and would honestly put Andrea up for a job there in a heartbeat.

Hi! My name is Olivia. I'm a grad school student. Have been working teaching kids and nannying for the past 2 years and did some babysitting growing up. I love being around kids. Very adventurous, love playing games, and enjoy teaching. I have a family I work with regularly and am looking to take on some occasional babysitting or some more regular hours. Looking forward to meeting you and your kiddos!

Olivia is amazing! She’s so reliable, on time, and is so great with my baby. She’s attentive, professional, and all smiles while babysitting. Would definitely recommend Olivia and I’m planning on booking her again!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
