Marlen $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Marlen. I am 26 years old and based in Hawthorne, CA, with flexibility to travel within a 15-mile radius for work. For the past three years, I have had the privilege of working as a nanny for a wonderful family, and now that my time with them has come to an end, I am excited to connect with a new family and bring the same level of care, dedication, and reliability to my next role. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children while supporting families with their unique needs. I would love the opportunity to introduce myself further and answer any questions you may have. I look forward to the possibility of becoming a positive addition to your family.

Booked by 2 families in South Gate, CA

Hi! My name is Alexis and I am 26 years old. I am a UCLA graduate. I am a very easy going, friendly and creative person. I love art and going on adventures! I'm also fluent in Spanish! I love children and have been babysitting children of all ages, (including newborns), all over the South Bay/LA area for the past 12 years. I was a full time nanny to a family of 3 under the age of 3 for 4 years until the family moved out of state. I can provide referrals if requested. I am also the oldest grandchild amongst a very large family so I've grown up with the babysitter role. My parents are teachers as well, so I am good with teaching and helping with homework. I am very comfortable with cooking, driving or taking the children out to play. I drive a 2017 Jeep Cherokee, I am insured by AAA and have full coverage. I can't wait to meet your family!

Fueling children's curiosity and development is a true passion of mine. My four years of babysitting experience have solidified my desire to positively impact young lives. I'm patient, creative, and friendly, and I genuinely enjoy engaging children with outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities. I'm comfortable caring for one child at a time and enforcing household rules. I'm happy to provide verbal updates at pickup or communicate via text or phone, according to your preference. I have reliable transportation and am comfortable with pets. I am also happy to assist with carpooling, light housekeeping, and swimming supervision. I am CPR Trained. Speaking both English and Spanish, I'm eager to connect with your family. I look forward to bringing my energy and skills to your home and creating a nurturing environment for your child to thrive.

"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)."
