Anna $35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Silver Lake, CA

Hi! I'm Anna and I love children! I love children so much because they are the most brilliant, hilarious, honest, authentic human beings. It is an honor to be entrusted with supporting them as they learn how to navigate this complex world. I taught pre-school at Play Mountain Place ( a Play School in LA since 1949) for four years. After which, I worked as a Nanny for 15 years. I worked with one family with two daughters ( ages 2 and 5 at start date) for four years, followed by a family with one daughter ( age 1 at start date) for six years. I most recent worked with a family with 5 year old triplets, for 5 years ( I met them on this site!) I have 12 units of Early Childhood Education course work. I also have a Yoga Teacher Certification with a specialty in yoga with children and Pre-Natal Yoga. My childcare philosophy is relationship driven. I believe in forging a strong connection with mutual respect and using Non-Violent Communication to resolve any conflicts. I love child led activities. I believe in play and natural consequences as learning tools. I use limits and balancing individual needs with group/family needs rather than discipline. I am imaginative, yet practical. Free and fair. I would love to meet you and your family!

Booked by 1 family in Silver Lake, CA

Hello My name is Karine, and I have over 25 years of experience caring for children. I especially enjoy caring for infants and toddlers, from 3 months to 4 years old. I am a caring, patient, and dependable caregiver who understands how important it is for children to feel safe, loved, and supported. I enjoy helping children develop emotionally, socially, and cognitively through age-appropriate activities, including art, music, reading, and active play. My background also includes years of experience as a community nurse, which has strengthened my attention to children’s health, safety, and well-being. I hold a current CPR certification. I am seeking a full-time, long-term nanny position, Monday through Friday, where I can provide loving, reliable care and build a trusting relationship with both the children and their family. I would be happy to discuss your family’s needs and how I can support your child’s growth and development.

“She helped with home cleaning and organizing! She is lovely and ready and willing to help in whatever way you need. ”

$29 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Silver Lake, CA

Hello! My name is Emily, and I am a caring, dependable, and energetic childcare professional with over 3 years of experience working with children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. As a preschool teacher, I have developed strong skills in creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where children can learn, grow, and feel supported. I am passionate about helping children reach developmental milestones through play-based learning, creative activities, outdoor exploration, reading, and positive encouragement. My classroom experience has taught me patience, organization, communication, and the ability to manage routines while meeting each child’s individual needs. Families describe me as trustworthy, responsible, and easy to communicate with. I understand the importance of building strong relationships with both children and parents, and I strive to provide reliable care that gives families peace of mind. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with homework help, school pick-ups and drop-offs, meal preparation, light housekeeping related to the children, and pet care. I love creating fun, meaningful experiences that help children feel confident, happy, and cared for. I am currently seeking a position where I can become a positive, supportive part of a family’s daily life.

“Emily was reliable and let me know every step taken. Was on time and oh so so sweet. My son's therapist who was there as well told me Emily was a great sitter! I'm giving her 5 HUGE stars! Thank you so much for your help. :D”

Isabelle $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there everyone! I’m looking for a part time nanny job starting mid August or later! I have experience with infants to pre-teens and am searching for a great family to work with over this next year! I have my own car for transportation and I am happy to help with cooking and tidying up a bit as well. By the time I start working in the next few weeks I will have completed my OSHA-approved, American Red Cross and AHA-certification in CPR and first aid training for adults, children and infants. A little bit more about me: I'm a 23- year-old recent college grad from San Francisco State University, I was raised in San Diego and began nannying in high school. Through college I worked closely with 2 families who I developed a great bond with (happy to provide them as references!). I am bubbly, thoughtful, and driven. I have tons of experience with kids who are all ages and from all walks of life. I believe the best way to help kids with almost anything is by modeling positive behavior and emotional regulation. I like working with kids because they have a unique perspective on life, and are thoughtful and curious about everything around them. In my spare time I like to read, hike, bake, and go vintage shopping. Please feel free to reach out to me if you would like to chat about rates, availability, or any other questions you may have.

Sasha $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sasha, and I’m based in Silver Lake. I have years of experience working with children through babysitting, teaching, and summer camps, and I genuinely love spending time with kids and entering their world creatively and energetically. I started babysitting in high school and college, including caring for my neighbor’s daughter through late nights, school pickups/drop-offs, and soccer practices. I also regularly babysat two boys, ages 4 and 5, where we spent most of our time doing arts and crafts, building things, playing imaginative games, reading before bed, and staying active rather than relying on screen time. I also worked as an art teacher for children ages 4–14 and taught summer camps as well. During weekly classes, I often independently managed two groups of 10–12 kids at a time, balancing creativity, structure, and making sure every child felt included and engaged. A little more about me personally, I studied English Literature in college and completed all of the coursework for my Master’s degree before ultimately deciding to move to Los Angeles to pursue music full time. I’m now a musician and creative person at heart, and I think that background has made me especially patient, imaginative, and communicative with kids. I really value creativity, curiosity, and making children feel understood and encouraged. I’m also a native Spanish speaker, very active, and love cooking, art, music, reading, and spending time outdoors. I’d be happy to help with meal prep, homework, creative activities, bedtime routines, or simply creating a fun and calm environment for your child. I’m dependable, warm, playful, and genuinely enjoy building trust with both kids and parents.

"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)."
