Hello! My name is Nathalie and I’m a recent college graduate from California State, Dominguez Hills (December 2025) with a Bachelor's of Science in Child Development: Early Development and Learning Concentration. I plan to study for my teaching credential Fall 2027. I have previously worked as a private nanny, afterschool program teacher, and a behavioral therapist. I'm determined to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for every child. I’m proficient in active supervision, adapting to new environments, engaging in play and leading activities to avoid screen-time use. I can help support with pickups, drop offs, homework and errands. I'm patient, nurturing, empathetic, thoughtful, responsible, and passionate about creating a safe space to ensure a positive experience for you and your child.

Amazing! Nathalie was a natural with my kiddo. She encouraged learning and emphasized his Spanish and ASL. They had a blast staying active outside. Will have her back for sure. ☺️ (plus on time and professional 😉)

Hi families! My name is Jenny. Currently 31 years old! I have 10+ years of experience being a nanny. (I can provide with references.) I currently live in Atwater village, very close to Glendale. I love to be active, take kids on walks, go to museums, libraries. I am very organized, clean, responsible and patient. I love play time, learning, and having fun with the littles. I also know how to cook basic healthy meals and can also run errands for families and do light house work such as tidying up the house, make kids beds, clean kids rooms, toys, clean kitchen after meals. etc, I can also do kids laundry if needed. I am reliable and always on time. I strive to make sure my employers and I have a great relationship. I'm a good communicator with a friendly attitude. I'm also very clean and promise to always respect and honor any rules! If interested please respond with job duties, expected hours and schedules, and what you expect as a nanny/ family helper! Thank you so much! *CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE*

Jenny started working with us when our daughter was only 4 months old. She’s been coming 3x’s a week for over a year and she’s been such a blessing. She’s timely, sweet, cooks amazing fresh meals, and our daughter absolutely LOVES her. They play, read, go out to the park, go for walks, etc. I get several texts daily with updates and pictures, which I love to see while I’m away at work. She speaks Spanish and English with her. I can leave for work with confidence that our daughter will be happy and cared for as if she were her own. We absolutely love Jenny and 100% recommend her to help with your family. We’ve been so fortunate to have her work with us the last 14 months and hope to have her in our lives for many years to come.

Hi- My name is Nai! I started my caregiver journey with watching my siblings and many many cousins. Over the last few years, I have primarily worked with toddlers-school age long term for two families(one including two sets of twins), with tons of short-term jobs in between. I love doing all kinds of activities with the kiddos; including painting, walks in nature and a little jam out session here and there :) In my free my time, I love to make music, reading and be out exploring nature! Willing to discuss and be flexible with rates as needed! Feel free to message me with any questions!!

Hello! I’m Ayanna, a compassionate and experienced nanny with over seven years of experience. I’m passionate about working with infants and toddlers, finding great joy in their development. My experience includes caring for children from newborns to toddlers, understanding their unique needs. I’m skilled in all aspects of infant and toddler care, including: - Infant care: Feeding, diapering, soothing techniques, and maintaining a consistent sleep schedule. I’m comfortable with sleep training and patient during challenging times. - Toddler development: Creating age-appropriate, screen-free activities that foster curiosity and learning. This includes sensory play, arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, and early language and motor skill development. I follow a child’s lead while providing a structured routine. - Safety & communication: Safety is my top priority. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and vigilant about creating a secure environment. I communicate openly and consistently with parents, providing updates on their child’s day and supporting their family’s values and goals. I’m reliable, trustworthy, and organized. I have my own reliable transportation and am available for date nights, full-time, and part-time. I look forward to connecting with you!

Ayanna responded immediately to my booking request and was polite and flexible. She showed up early for the job. I appreciate her professionalism so much! Looking forward to booking her again.

Booked by 42 families in Sun Valley, CA

Hi, my name is Adilyn. I'm originally from New York, but have been in California for over 20 years. I'm married with two young adults. I've been a stay at home mother all of my children's lives. I decided to do some babysitting because I enjoy being around kids and I could also continue doing my part as a mom/wife. I have been very fortunate to be able to be home with my kids throughout their life and if I can provide some ease to parents looking for a caretaker then I'm glad to do it.

Adilyn is just fantastic - we love her calm and positive energy, her commitment to caring for our little one, and her proactivity with early arrival and cleanup. We're so thankful to have found her for future date nights!

"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
