Goli was great with our son! She asked a lot of thoughtful questions about his needs. Our son loved his time with her and we will definitely have her take care of him again!

Hello! My name is Meg, I live in Silverlake and am a dedicated caregiver and creative! I have 10+ years of babysitting experience. I have worked for babysitting services in the past like SitterCity and Weesit and had an incredibly positive experience - even being billed as 'the baby whisperer,' to parents. I am very focused of safety but love to have fun. I use my skills as a performer to play, entertain and bring out an imaginative spirit. I am enthusiastic but calm and incredibly reliable. I am one of five siblings and over 35 cousins - I have been a camp counselor, teacher of drama, music and improv and have directed children in plays. I'm not the kind of babysitter that just puts on a movie - I'm completely engaged.

Meghan did a great job! On time and the kids loved her. Hope to hire her again soon!

"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
