Luisa $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Luisa but you can call me Marie, and I’m a caring, patient, and dependable mom who loves working with children. I’m currently offering childcare and babysitting services for families in the Los Angeles area. I have hands-on experience caring for my own young child and understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust. I’m comfortable caring for babies and toddlers, including feeding, diaper changes, playtime, nap routines, and keeping children safe and comfortable. I enjoy spending time with children through age-appropriate play, reading, arts and crafts, walks, and other fun activities. As a mom, I understand that every child has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and willing to follow the parents’ instructions and routines. I would love the opportunity to help your family and provide your child with safe, loving, and dependable care. ❤️

Hi! I’m Bethany, and I’ve worked with children from infants to school‑age through nannying, after‑school programs, and child development centers. I love creating a calm, fun, and safe space where kids feel comfortable and supported. I’ve helped with playtime, meals, naps, diapering, routines, school pick‑ups, activities, and keeping things organized at home. I’m patient, hands‑on, and great at staying consistent with family expectations. I’m also comfortable with pets, especially dogs, and can help with feeding, walks, and simple care. I’m someone families can count on, and I take pride in keeping a home running smoothly while making sure everyone feels cared for.

Chelsea $40 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Chelsea. I am a Los Angeles-based nanny with over 11 years of experience caring for infants and toddlers. After four years, the little one I've cared for is off to Pre-K! I am TrustLine registered, CPR certified, and First Aid certified. I take a RIE approach to childcare that is gentle, respectful, empathetic, and playful. I grew up with an interest in both art and sports, so I'm just as happy sitting down to draw, build, play games, or read together as I am spending the day outside. I enjoy creating thoughtful, screen-conscious days filled with play, conversation, laughter, creativity, and opportunities to build confidence. Whether we're visiting a park, library, museum, or simply enjoying a walk together, I love helping children discover and engage with the world around them. My goal is to provide children with consistent, loving care while giving parents peace of mind. I believe in setting clear, consistent boundaries, encouraging effort, and maintaining a positive and relaxed mindset. I am light-hearted, open-minded, and dependable. I care about being aligned with the families I work with, and I’m open to taking direction. If this sounds like a good fit for your family, I'd love to hear from you. Thank you!

William $21 per hour for 1 child

Hello! Thanks for coming across my profile! In the afternoons, I’m currently a Behavioral Interventionist with ACES ABA, and have always loved kids! I don’t have any direct babysitting experience currently, but have always loved spending time with the young members of my family and playing/taking care of them during family visits. I also have previous experience caring for a special needs adult, and have calmly de escalated and re directed tantrums, and have used this knowledge during my BI job as well. My personality traits are definitely patience, fun, firm, and accommodating to whatever my client has needed in the past. The client always comes first.

"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."

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)."
