Hello, I'm Damaris! I have over 10 years of experience caring for children from 4 months to 15 years old, and I love what I do. I am a kind, caring, patient, and responsible caregiver who enjoys creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment for children. With me, your children will enjoy a variety of activities: reading stories, playing, doing crafts, singing, dancing, exploring nature, and even learning Spanish if they wish. I also love animals, so pets are never a problem. I have an impeccable driving record and feel comfortable driving children to their activities. I will gladly provide excellent references upon request. My rate is flexible and depends on the job, hours, and responsibilities. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions; I'd be happy to chat with you!

Hi Parents! It’s lovely to meet you! You may notice a bit of a gap in my reviews because I’ve spent the past couple of years working long-term with a family, and throughout my childcare career I’ve also been fortunate to be hired by repeat families and through word of mouth. I’d be happy to provide a reference! I’m now available to connect with new families in LA for both full-time and part-time opportunities. I’m an experienced nanny and childcare provider originally from New York City. I grew up taking care of kids and being around kids all the time because of my very fertile family haha. I knew how to change a diaper since I was 10 years old! I have experience with children of all ages, from newborns through pre-teens, including infants, siblings, and overnight/vacation care. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each child’s personality, interests, and routine. I’m patient, attentive, understanding, and responsible, while also believing that childcare should be fun! I’m happy to get down on the floor and play, explore a museum, help with homework, or come up with something creative to do together. I received my B.S. in Advertising and Marketing Communications from FIT, minoring in English. In my spare time, I enjoy writing poetry, reading, watching films, playing volleyball, working out, being active, and spending time in nature. I’m a big proponent of laughter and imagination, and my working style balances fun with safety. I’m comfortable taking initiative and adapting when plans change. My goal is always to keep children safe, happy, engaged, and comfortable while giving parents peace of mind. Depending on the family’s needs, I can help with: - School and activity pickups - Homework and academic support - Snacks and meals, including cooking - Playtime, parks, museums, and outings - Bath time and bedtime routines - Diapering and infant care - Overnight and vacation care - Tidying and laundry related to the children. Happy to discuss further needs outside of this. I also have experience with assistant work and household management, and I’m happy to discuss your family’s specific needs and how I can help make things run smoothly. I’m Red Cross CPR certified and have First Aid training. Booking note: For bookings ending at or after 8 PM, transportation home will be required.

“Thanks again!”

Hi my name is Mariah and I am a dancer/performing artist originally from Philadelphia, PA. I've been teaching dance to children ages 2-18 for about 10 years and was often the go-to family babysitter before moving to LA. I started working through Urban Sitter about 8 years ago as a nanny,babysitter, and tutor and have experience with all ages (infants-teenagers). I absolutely love working with children and am grateful for every opportunity I get to do so. With every job it is always my goal to provide a creative, active, safe and fun environment. I'm a natural performer/entertainer and children are honestly my favorite audience 🤗 ... Aside from dancing I love playing sports, reading, outdoor adventuring and fashion.

Hi, I’m Mara. I’m 27 with over 10 years of paid childcare experience, working with children from newborn through teenage years. I’ve supported families in long-term, short-term, and overnight roles, and I’m confident handling everything from daily routines to more involved care needs. I also have experience working with children on the autism spectrum, ADHD, and other developmental needs, and I approach each child with patience, awareness, and adaptability. My personality is calm, grounded, and attentive. I naturally create a peaceful, structured environment where children feel safe, understood, and comfortable. I’m very intentional about how I show up present, observant, and responsive without being overwhelming. I have strong experience with infant and toddler care, school routines, transportation to activities, homework support, and meal prep. In many of my long-term roles, I’ve also supported the home during school hours or summer camp schedules, keeping things clean, organized, and running smoothly so families can come home to a well-maintained space. I’m comfortable with both childcare-related tasks and overall household upkeep. I value structure, communication, and mutual respect, and I do best with families who are looking for someone dependable, calm, and proactive. Someone they can trust to handle both childcare and household support without needing constant direction. I’m dependable, consistent, and respectful of each family’s routines and preferences. Families I’ve worked with value that they can trust me to step in seamlessly, stay calm in any situation, and handle responsibilities with care. I take what I do seriously and genuinely care about creating a positive, safe experience for both the child and the family.

“Amazing, quick to respond and my daughter loved her. Will hire 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."

"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)."
