Booked by 4 families in South Gate, CA

Dear Families, My name is Stephanie, and I am confident that my experience in effectively managing time-sensitive tasks and working closely with children positions me as an excellent urban sitter. During my time at Intergen Health as a home health aide, I gained invaluable insights into meeting holistic needs by providing emotional and basic support. This role also allowed me to develop strong prioritization skills, ensuring that tasks were efficiently managed. Additionally, I had the opportunity to teach Basic American Sign Language and provide tutoring for children with special needs. I also served as a counselor and mentor at a youth camp, enabling me to build meaningful connections with the young participants. Furthermore, I worked as a dance instructor at the Young after School Program in Brooklyn, where I engaged students aged five through twelve in creative movement. In terms of qualifications, I hold certifications in Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children Awareness (RFA Renewal and SCI Specialized) from Los Angeles Trade Technical College, Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children Awareness (RFA Renewal and SCI Specialized)" from Los Angeles Trade Technical College, RFA (Resource Family Approval, completion of the initial 12-Hour Special Care Increment Training at Los Angeles Trade Technical College through the Foster and Kinship Care Education Program, CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation), and ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) from my previous work as a Behavioral Technician. These certifications emphasize both safety and behavioral support for children. As a mother myself to five wonderful children aged 9, 7, 4, 2 and 9 months old, I genuinely enjoy the joys and responsibilities of parenthood. Rest assured that I will treat your child with the same love and care as if they were my own. Having been a stay-at-home mom for seven years, I am well-versed in various aspects of child care such as changing diapers, cooking nutritious meals, maintaining cleanliness, engaging in playtime activities, and instilling a love for reading. Witnessing the happiness on children's faces as they eat or play brings immense joy to my heart. I am truly excited about becoming an asset to the families associated with UrbanSitter. Thank you kindly for taking the time to consider my application. Warmest regards, Stephanie D

“Hey Steph is awesome, she is a beautiful mommy and I am blessed to have met her. I recommend her!, we been friends and she works wonders raising her kids, and she cooks and is very organize, and photogenic. She has the biggest smile which show her beautiful personality.”

Booked by 2 families in South Gate, CA

Hello I’m glad you’re here! My name is Alexandra. I am 30 years old and a devoted mother and wife. I am fluent in English and Spanish. I began caring for children at the age of 18 and have 7 years of experience outside of my own children I care for. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers and also young children ages 3-6 years old. I am completing my CPR & first aid certification so this can be provided to help ease your mind that your family is safe. I previously worked as a behavioral technician. I have experience working with children with ASD. Here is where I grew my love for the field of psychology and early childhood development. I am a full time mom & student. I attend school in the evenings. I would love to help families get back to things they love doing whether that be self-care, date nights or simply getting things done. You can also be returning to work or working from home. It can be very challenging to manage it all, as a mother / parent I salute you for taking the leap and getting the help you need ! It truly takes a village and I’d be honored to help. I love dogs own two myself ( corgi & pittie ) However I’m great overall with pets no allergies that I’m aware of! Can help feed them if necessary. Some of my hobbies include: reading, writing, arts & crafts and photography! I’m also great at cleaning & organizing, would love to help your family, including light tidying around the house. My focus when working with littles and children is to build that trust and relationship with them so I can help them grow and learn. From fine motor skills, to cognitive development. We will play together, sing dance and learn along the way. All of this can be tailored to your personal needs as a family. I have experience with a wide variety of children and individuals. Potty training ? Diapering ? Nothing new ! I’m here to help. What may work for your family, may not work for others. Each care can be individualized. Not all children are the same, Have a routine ? Im great at adapting to your routine and schedule. I look forward to getting to know you and your family. Thank you for taking a moment to learn a little about me. I’ll see you all very soon !

“Alexandra was very professional, she came and took the time to ask about each of my kids so she knows how to talk to each. Met each of my kids needs and was flexible with schedule, She was able to accommodate. Was able to built trust with my kids within minutes and that felt reassuring to me that they were in great hands. I have worked with Alexandra a few times and will continue to hire her when needed.”

Hello! My name is Aylin. I'm a college student attending CSLB online and I’m majoring in child development. I currently work as a campus assistant for an elementary school. I'm really interested in babysitting for you. I'm a reliable, careful, friendly, and responsible person. I'm fully vaccinated. I'm CPR and First Aid certified. If needed I can cook and clean. A little bit about me is that I love working with kids due to me babysitting since I was 14 for neighbors, family members and my mom's day care center. I've babysat from new borns to nine year olds. This sparked my interest for becoming a teacher. I like being a babysitter because it gives the flexibility to work and still be in school.

"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)."
