Cierra 1 review
$27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Cierra, and I am currently a Lead Teacher at a preschool where I work primarily with 2-year-olds. I am offering child care services and have several years of experience working with children ages 2-5 in preschool classroom settings. I love working with children and especially enjoy arts and crafts, sensory play, music and movement activities, and themed activities that keep kids engaged and having fun while learning. I am very comfortable managing daily routines for multiple children at once, including meals, naps, potty training, transitions, outdoor play, and bedtime routines. Families often describe me as warm, personable, dependable, and attentive. I genuinely enjoy building connections with children and creating an environment where they feel safe, supported, and excited to play and learn. That connection often extends outside the classroom, as I have continued babysitting for former preschool families and love maintaining those relationships as children grow. While my most recent experience has been with toddlers and preschool-aged children, I also have experience with school-aged children through camps and after-school care. I am comfortable supervising multiple children at once and adapting activities to different personalities, interests, and energy levels.

“I cannot recommend Cierra highly enough. She is truly exceptional and goes above and beyond for the kids in her care. She was my son's pre-school teacher and helped him through a hard transition into a new school. Under her care, he truly blossomed, and I was incredibly impressed at how effortlessly she creates both structure and a joyful learning environment. Moreover, she is an excellent communicator. It’s rare to find someone who combines professionalism, warmth, and natural instinct with kids so seamlessly. I highly recommend Cierra. She brings years of experience with children, and any family would be incredibly lucky to work with her.”

Nell $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Silver Lake, CA

Hiya! I’m Nell, a recent graduate of Carnegie Mellon University’s School of Drama. I have several years of experience working with children and love creating a fun, supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and engaged. I’ve babysat a 4–6 year old, helping with meals, playtime, reading, and bedtime routines. For the past three summers, I’ve also worked as a summer school and camp assistant teacher for elementary school students. During those summers, I worked with a cooking education program called Radical Cooks in California, where we taught kids how to cook French recipes. I mostly assisted the instructor but also led my own classes about once a week, teaching groups of 12–20 kids. With my background in theater, I love keeping kids engaged through storytelling, games, crafts, and imaginative play. I’m happy to help with meals, bedtime routines, and fun activities, and I’m available for evenings, date nights, and occasional weekend babysitting.

"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)."
