Booked by 1 family in South Gate, CA

Hi! My name is Ruby, and I am a college student at CSUN! I have experience with large and small groups of children ages 2-15 years old. My most recent experience was working as a part time nanny with a family of two children aged 7 and 10. Our time consisted of after school care doing activities, preparing meals and getting the kids ready for bedtime. I also previously worked at the Girl Scouts of the Greater Los Angeles Area Day Camp as a Camp Counselor where I led groups of up to 20 kids to participate in activities! I am Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified and have experience with first aid and allergy care. More about me! I am a political science major but was previously an Art Major and am still very artistically inclined. I love arts and crafts of all kind and am skilled in painting, drawing, clay and collage making. Some interests of mine include cooking/baking, photography, and film watching! I am someone who has 100% focus on keeping your children safe at all times as well as happy and entertained! I love spending time doing activities and chatting with the kids I work with as well as making sure they are always comfortable and feeling their best! I look forward to working with you and your kiddos!

Diana $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Diana and I am a 20 year old college student. I have several years of experience babysitting. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14 years old and have worked with different families with children ranging from 1-12. I loved building strong, trusting relationships with both parents and children. I genuinely enjoy creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids — especially through board games, arts and crafts, and creative activities. I am great at cooking and household chores. I’d be more than willing to give a helping hand around your home! I also have experience with pet care and have a dog of my own who has taught me great patience!

Assata $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in South Gate, CA

Hi, I’m Assata! I’m a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with over five years of experience supporting children, families, and individuals across different stages of life. Growing up with two much younger brothers gave me early hands-on experience and a strong understanding of children’s emotional and developmental needs. In addition to direct caregiving, I’ve worked with youth through community-based and nonprofit programs, facilitating educational and enrichment activities for children ages 7–16. I’ve supported programming in school and recreational settings, including collaborations with LAUSD and Parks & Recreation, helping create structured, engaging, and supportive environments for young people. I value creating calm, nurturing spaces where children feel safe, seen, and encouraged. I’m CPR certified and comfortable assisting with light household tasks, errands, and daily routines, offering families a reliable and thoughtful extra set of hands.

"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)."
