Booked by 32 families in South Pasadena, CA

Hello! My name is Marandah, and I am a 29 year old woman currently seeking occasional and part time childcare work! In my free time, I absolutely love to cook and bake, spend time outdoors (I run, hike, surf, and swim when I can), play music (singing, guitar, and piano), and write/perform short stories. Childcare has been my first and most long-lasting job-- when I was 12, a family friend would pay me five dollars an hour to walk their infant around the house in a sling until she fell asleep. I have experience with children of all ages, from newborns to teens, and am also experienced working with children and young adults with physical & developmental disabilities. Additionally, I have taught summer camp, theater workshops for children, and given swim lessons. I am a high-energy person who has always found working with kids to be engaging, dynamic, inspiring, and hilarious, and I would love to work with your family!

Booked by 66 families in South Pasadena, CA

Hello 👋🏾 My name is Kirah! My passion for kids started at a young age. Being the oldest of 8 also played a role within childcare because my siblings were my first taste of “babysitting” then of course came cousins, a friend of a friend and so on. My favorite thing about babysitting is being able to bond with the child and the parent is now at ease knowing their child is comfortable and cared for. My favorite thing to do is “adventure walks” simple as exploring their neighborhood during a walk. Fresh air and sight seeing can be fun! I have been working in childcare for almost 5 years professionally and hope to one day open my own daycare. I live in the Los Angeles area, with my own transportation. I am vaccinated as well as CPR + First aid certified. Please let me know if you need any assistance. I look forward to hearing from you.

Kirah is a delight! Her positive, upbeat energy was refreshing. My son loved playing with her and we will be booking her again for sure.

"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)."
