Katie $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Katie, I am an undergraduate student at UC Davis originally from Los Angeles. I offer childcare and pet care services! I have worked in childcare for over four years now, primarily at summer and school break camps with children ages 3-14 in a variety of settings making me a highly adaptable caregiver. In addition, I have babysitting experience with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. My responsibilities have included, driving to and from activities, cooking/cleaning/organizing, crafts, tutoring, bedtime/daily routines, creating engaging activities and overall maintaining a positive environment for the children in my care. As a college athlete and former youth coach, I have extensive experience with sports and outdoor activities, I enjoy keeping children active through fun and engaging activities. I also have experience supporting households with pet care, including both cats and dogs (comfortable with large & small) . I am CPR and First-aid certified .

Nicole $24 per hour for 1 child

Born and raised in Tampa, Florida with roots from Cuba, I bring a warm and family oriented spirit to every home. I interned as an audio engineer in Manhattan New York for 2 years. I have four nieces and nephews ranging from 1 to 18 years old, so caring for children feels second nature. I’ve babysat in Calabasas, work at a children’s store near Beverly Hills. I’ve been in Los Angeles for 5 years and hold current CPR and First Aid certifications. I’m patient, playful, and love teaching, learning, and creating fun activities. Outgoing and encouraging, I bring both a girly touch and a tomboy energy that helps me connect with every kind of child and I love animals!

isabel $35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in South Pasadena, CA

Hi! I’m Isabel, a professional nanny with 8 years of experience caring for children ages 5 to 15 in Los Angeles. I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy watching kids grow — helping them with homework, cheering them on at activities, and being a reliable, caring presence in their daily lives. I have extensive experience with school pickups, activity coordination, homework support, and preparing light meals. I’m patient, organized, and attentive to each child’s individual needs and personality. One thing families especially appreciate is that I’m fully bilingual in English and Spanish — great for bilingual households or parents who want their kids exposed to a second language naturally. I come from Seville, Spain, where I studied at Universidad Pablo de Olavide, and I bring warmth, structure, and a little European flair to every family I work with. References from families I’ve worked with are available upon request!

"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)."
