Hi! I'm Destiny! I've been babysitting and nannying for 11 years and have experience with overnights, full-time and part-time care, traveling, nanny pods, occasional babysitting, and watching over multiples (twins/ triplets) :) I have experience caring for all ages, from newborns to 15 years old, with the majority of my experience focused on newborns through 6-year-olds. This past year, I worked as a long-term Kindergarten substitute, and I'm currently working toward my teaching credential and Master's in Education. I enjoy working with children and getting to know their little personalities while building genuine, trusting connections. I'm patient, attentive, reliable, and responsible, while still being energetic and engaging. I love spending time outdoors, doing crafts, visiting museums, going on bike rides, and creating opportunities for kids to learn, have fun and just be kids. There’s no better feeling than hearing “you’re the best babysitter ever.” Looking forward to connecting with your family!

Destiny was excellent—great communicator and my kids loved her!

Booked by 10 families in Sun Valley, CA

Hi families, I’m Sandy, a professional bilingual nanny with over 7 years of experience caring for children from newborns to teenagers. I bring the perfect mix of warmth, structure, creativity, patience, and calm confidence into every home I work with. I have worked with families in New York, The Hamptons, Florida, Puerto Rico, Vermont, Colombia, and China, bringing a global, adaptable, and culturally aware approach to childcare. My approach is centered on safety, emotional connection, developmental growth, and joyful routines. I love creating days filled with reading, music, outdoor play, sensory activities, Spanish immersion, healthy meals, and age-appropriate learning moments that help children feel secure, capable, and excited to grow. I have experience with infant care, toddler routines, school-age children, travel support, busy family schedules, healthy meal prep, children’s laundry, organization, transportation, homework help, potty training, and creating a peaceful rhythm in active households. Families describe me as reliable, loyal, discreet, loving, active, organized, and highly professional. I take pride in being more than a nanny. I become a trusted partner to parents and a steady, positive presence in a child’s life. I am CPR and First Aid certified, fully bilingual in English and Spanish, and comfortable working with families who value high standards, clear communication, emotional intelligence, and exceptional care. If you are looking for someone who will care for your children with love, intention, maturity, and true professionalism, I would be honored to connect with your family.

Sandy is an absolutely exceptional nanny. She was recommended to me by a friend recently and from the beginning it was clear how talented she is. She immediately got down on my 3 year old’s level and kept her attention all day. She is so kind and engaging that my daughter was immediately smitten. Sandy’s attention was 100% on my daughter the whole time. My daughter often (multiple times per day) asks when Sandy is coming back. There aren’t enough ways to recommend Sandy. She is punctual, reliable, she cooks and speaks multiple languages. Most of all she seems to really enjoy taking care of children. Please do not hesitate to contact me, I would be happy to sing her praises over the phone!

Hi! I'm Lesley. I have experience caring for children of various ages and have had the opportunity to work with many wonderful families over the years, including several repeat families. I enjoy building positive relationships with both children and parents and creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids can feel comfortable and engaged. Over the past several years, I've built a professional career in business and operations, which has strengthened my organization, communication, problem-solving, and responsibility skills. I bring those same qualities to every family I work with and pride myself on being dependable, patient, and attentive. I especially enjoy spending quality time with children through games, crafts, outdoor activities, reading, and helping with homework or daily routines. My goal is always to make children feel supported while giving parents peace of mind when they're away. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, staying active, exploring Los Angeles, and spending time at home with my two cats. I'm also very comfortable around pets and am happy to help families with cats and dogs as needed. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your family, and I would love the opportunity to help. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to connecting with you!

Booked by 13 families in Sun Valley, CA

Hi everyone! I’m Caylah. I’m a special education teacher. I’ve been working with kids since I was fourteen, though I’ve been babysitting since I was ten. I’ve worked for my mothers dance camp as an administrative assistant and art activity instructor. Over the years I’ve had many jobs and volunteer experiences which have allowed me to work with all ages. I like to take the kids out if the weather agrees with me. In my free time I enjoy reading, traveling, painting, drawing, crocheting, pottery, roller skating, and trying new foods.

Caylah was super kind, connected with my daughter quickly and was very flexible and reasonable. We would love to hire her again!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
