Hello! My name is Julia. I am an experienced nanny and babysitter always looking to help families with their childcare needs from infants through teenagers. EDUCATION: Bachelor’s degree in Musical Theatre with a Concentration in Dance, 2018 GPA: 3.8 EXPERIENCE: I’ve supported families with everything from school pickups in my own car, homework help, and activity transportation to meal preparation, household organization, and creating engaging, age-appropriate activities. Known for my reliability, patience, and ability to connect with kids of all ages, I strive to create a safe, supportive, and fun environment where children can thrive. Alongside childcare, I work as a film producer, which has strengthened my organization, communication, problem-solving, and leadership skills—qualities I bring to every family I work with.

“Julia was an absolute star!! She had the energy of 10 people and my 4 year old and 7 month old absolutely adored her. I heard laughter in our house nonstop from the moment she arrived. A very special person!”

Booked by 9 families in Sherman Oaks, CA

Hi there! My name is Aeliscia and I’m an experienced, reliable, and caring nanny based in the valley, currently available for new opportunities. I’m CPR certified, have a clean driving record, and bring over 10 years of babysitting experience, including 5 years as a nanny/household assistant! As the oldest sibling to three younger brothers (ages 5, 8, and 13), I’ve been helping raise kids practically my whole life—and I absolutely love it! I enjoy nannying because I get to build meaningful connections with kids and create a fun, safe, and supportive environment where they can grow and thrive. In my free time, I love to spend time outdoors, be active, and bake desserts! I’m happy to answer any questions you may have. Looking forward to connecting with you!

“Totally on time! Amazing and kind and took my child to the park!! Was super professional and would love love to have her again! Just wanted to re review her because we absolutely adore her. She’s always shown up, and she’s shown up about ten times now so she’s always making the appointments- I know that she goes above and beyond and is one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. I absolutely love it and 1000% trust her when she’s with my child. If you don’t know if you should hire her- think again. She’s the one you want. ”

Booked by 12 families in Sherman Oaks, CA

Hi there! I have over 10 years of experience working with children ranging from infants to middle schoolers, and it’s truly been a joy every step of the way. I recently earned my MFA in Acting, and before that, I spent four years teaching drama classes to kids, helping them grow in confidence, creativity, and communication. Whether I’m caring for a baby or engaging an energetic middle-schooler, I approach every child with patience, warmth, and attentiveness. I’m also passionate about creating a calm, reliable presence in the home, so parents can feel supported and more available for their personal or professional lives. I believe open communication with families is key, and I always aim to be someone you can trust and count on. In my free time, I love cooking and learning new languages and I often find creative ways to bring those interests into the day with little ones.

"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)."
