Parker $17 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Somis, CA

I grew up in Los Angeles with both of my parents and my older brother. I have volunteered at a senior living facility and previously worked as an assistant art teacher at an elementary school, where I worked with first and second grade students. I am very outgoing, bubbly, kind, and hard working. I am an excellent cook and can prepare a variety of meals. I also enjoy art and would be more than happy to paint with the children. I love doing crafts, teaching, board games, and finding fun and creative activities to keep the kiddos or elderly engaged. I have always loved working with children and the elderly. I also have four dogs of my own, so I am very comfortable and experienced with animals as well.

Booked by 1 family in Somis, CA

Hi my name is Jaquellin but I go by Jackie, I’m 23 years old. I love the outdoors, going on walks and hiking occasionally when I have time. I also really love art, anything that can get my creativity going, it could be arranging flowers, crafting, baking or even decorating for the seasons (especially Christmas!) I’m very nice and easy to get along with, can be quite funny and energetic but also have a lot of patience!

“This was the first time we used a babysitter for our 8month old daughter. I was afraid she would cry a lot being the first time someone else watches her. But my Fiance said baby looked happy. Jackie arrived on time and was communicative leading up to caring for her. Update! She ended up babysitting for our baby for 3 weeks! We have no complains and baby was able to nap with her perfectly idk how she did it but she always puts up a fight with us lol ”

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."
