Hi! As a babysitter / nanny of 15+ years, I enjoy spending my free time working with children. I am multilingual and have 6+ years experience volunteering as a certified EMT/crew chief/ambulance driver. I am trained for potential medical emergencies and versed in CPR for infants, children, and adults. Throughout middle and high school, I worked at Kumon Math and Reading Center and helped kids, as young as toddlers and as old as teens, improve their reading, writing, and math skills and build their self-confidence in school. I have cared for children as young as a few weeks old to thirteen years old and as such, am well versed across sleep training, swaddling, homework, and more! Kids never fail to amaze me and whether it is their brutal honesty or their insightful comments, caring for them allows me to indulge in what I am best: a kid at heart. Professionally, I work in music helping produce artists in the studio. I look forward to meeting your family! Booking Policy: 3 hour minimum for jobs

Jasmin was amazing with the baby, Enzo really loves her. Would love to continue working with her.

‼️ Looking for FULL TIME end of September - Newborn-5yrs old Baby I nannie'd from 4mo-21mo is going into full-time school 😘👧🏽 Available Date Nights M-Th/Sat/Sun *My journey in childcare began early, as I started looking after toddlers in Sunday School during my teen years. Fast forward, I've raised my own children, who are now 23 and 21 years old, alongside caring for my niece and nephew from infancy until they were ready for kindergarten. I have families I steadily babysit for & have also been a full time nanny. I'm easy to get along with & am prepared to handle any child emergency situation with focused calm. Having been a freelance artist for 22 years I bring A LOT of creativity into babies/children's lives! I have a clean Trustline background/driving record and am open to light cooking and picking up after the kiddos. I also totally LOVE animals as they are also a part of the family! I do babysitting all over LA have have family in OC so it's an easy 2-for-1 being in that area! My references will be MORE than happy to speak with you and hope to hear from you soon! 📱FaceTime/Zoom calls welcomed!

Evelyn is the best!! She has such great energy, is always positive, and mostly we love that she can handle our very wild and trouble-causing 4 and 6 year olds! Evelyn sends us pictures and videos through the day - we see everyone having fun and this helps build such great trust, especially with a new babysitter. She was new to us and we had her babysit twice in one week! She showed up on-time, she was prepared with cool art projects, took the kids on long walks to the playground, packed snacks, made meals, and put the kids to bed! She is super autonomous, we just give her the basics and Evelyn knows what to do. Also our kids love her!! We highly, highly recommend Evelyn!

"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)."
