Amandeep $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Amandeep, and I am a caring, dependable, patient, and trustworthy caregiver who truly enjoys working with children. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Criminology and Justice from California State University, Northridge (CSUN), where I was recognized for my academic achievements, including being on the Dean’s List and receiving academic honors and awards. Earning my degree while balancing work and other responsibilities taught me discipline, organization, patience, and strong time-management skills. I have hands-on experience caring for children from newborns through 10 years old. I am comfortable caring for infants and helping with feeding, preparing bottles and meals, bathing, diaper changes, dressing, playtime, bedtime routines, and keeping children safe and comfortable. I enjoy engaging children through age-appropriate activities, being attentive to their individual personalities and needs, and creating a warm and positive environment. I also have my CPR, First Aid, and ABA certifications, which have given me additional knowledge and skills for supporting children safely and appropriately. I also have experience supporting seniors and helping families with errands, appointments, organization, and household responsibilities. I am bilingual in English and Punjabi/Hindi, communicate well with parents, and understand how important trust is when caring for someone’s children. I am responsible, nurturing, energetic, and calm under pressure, and I would treat every child with the same care, patience, and respect I would want for my own family.

Melody $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Sherman Oaks, CA

Hello, My name is Melody, and I am a native Santa Monican, and I was born at UCLA Medical Center. I am the baby of five, and I looked after my beautiful, beloved Mom with pleasure and honor in her later years, and it was a privilege to do so. She was such a caring, loving and awesome Mom, and I have all of her great traits of honesty, integrity, loyalty, compassion, to name a few. I am also a loving, compassionate, empathetic, caring being who has discovered what my mission is in this lifetime, and I want to express this in all ways to live up to my potential. Her transition has awakened this realization in me. Spreading all of this joy, especially to our elder population, would give me much satisfaction while ensuring that all their needs are provided for and making their lives smoother and more enjoyable. Thank you in advance for allowing me to do so.

Juan $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Juan. I’m a bilingual English-Spanish musician and private guitar instructor offering child care, pet care, and household support. For several years in Mexico, I taught private guitar lessons in students’ homes, primarily working with children around ages 6–11. During longer visits, I often spent additional time with the children, helped keep an eye on them, kept them engaged, and maintained a calm and positive environment. I’m patient, creative, responsible, and enjoy connecting with kids through music, games, and conversation. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs and cats and have experience caring for my own pet. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, errands, light cleaning, simple meal preparation, and other basic household tasks. I’m dependable, respectful of each family’s routines, and committed to creating a safe, encouraging, and comfortable environment.

"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)."
