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

Hi families! My name is Maria, and I am a dedicated and passionate caregiver with over 10 years of professional experience supporting children of all ages, from infants to 17-year-olds. I pride myself on being deeply attentive, detail-oriented, and safety-conscious while creating a lively and nurturing environment. I love keeping kids engaged through interactive play, reading together, and preparing healthy, homemade meals. Beyond my extensive general childcare background, I also bring valuable personal and hands-on experience caring for individuals with special needs. Growing up with a sister on the autism spectrum has equipped me with a unique understanding, patience, and empathy for children with diverse developmental abilities. At the core of my caregiving philosophy is compassion. I believe in leading with an open heart and treating every child entrusted to my care as if they were my own. Whether your little ones need help with homework, an energetic play partner, or specialized care, I am here to provide a safe, joyful, and supportive space for them to thrive. I look forward to meeting your family!

Amariya $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Amariya, and I’m currently a dental assistant trying to figure out what I want to do next. I’m offering childcare, senior care, and household services. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15 years old. I’ve watched newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) and have taken on various responsibilities, such as driving to and from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. In addition to babysitting, I also work as a household assistant. I can cook, clean, and run errands. I’m also a great bridge partner! I’m allergic to cats, but I’m happy to work with families that have dogs.

Lilly $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m the oldest of seven, so caregiving has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a single-parent home, I naturally stepped in to help my mom with everything from homework and bedtime routines to meals and keeping the house running. Those early years taught me how to be patient, responsible, and calm under pressure, and they’re a huge reason why I’m so comfortable working with kids today. Outside of my own family, I’ve spent time caring for children in my community and during college. I worked at youth camps and served as a counselor, leading activities, helping kids build friendships, and supporting them through the ups and downs of being young. I also worked with the Boys and Girls Club, mentoring kids both academically and socially. Those experiences helped me develop my own style of caregiving — warm, creative, and centered around helping each child feel seen and capable. I recently graduated from college, and my education helped strengthen my communication and leadership skills. I love finding ways to connect with kids individually, whether that’s through reading together, exploring their interests, or creating simple learning moments in everyday tasks. As a caregiver, I’m dependable, gentle, and adaptable. I don’t come in just to supervise; I like to really learn each child’s personality, what comforts them, what excites them, and how to support their growth. I’m also great with busy households and don’t mind pitching in with things like meal prep, light cleaning, organizing, homework help, errands, or pet care. I’ve been doing those things my whole life. I have over 7 years of experience caring for children from infancy through age 15, and I’ve had the privilege of nannying for multiple families with diverse needs and personalities. I’m open to both live-in and full-time roles depending on the family’s needs. More than anything, I care about building trust, creating a calm and happy environment, and making life a little easier for the families I work with.

Irene $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi - my name is Irene and I hold two Bachelor’s degrees from UCLA and a Master’s from USC. I was born and raised in Athens, Greece and I am bilingual in English and Greek. I’ve spent years taking care of younger cousins and family friends’ kids, ranging from school-age through teens. I’m CPR certified and take safety seriously. Since I have a strong academic background, I’m especially comfortable helping with homework and tutoring, whether it’s a tricky math assignment or just staying on top of schoolwork. I’m also pet friendly and happy to work with families who have animals in the home.

"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)."
