Perri $40 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Perri. I have several years of experience caring for children of all ages, including a family of three with a special needs child. Additionally, I have volunteered at my church's kids ministry for over a year caring for children from babies, toddlers, and early tweens. I love making kids feel safe, supported, and truly entertained. My own childhood was full of fun, and I aim to bring that same joy into the lives of the kids I care for. Whether we’re doing bedtime routines, snacks, games, or homework, I always bring positive energy and genuine connection! Families value my professionalism, calm presence, and strong communication. I’m available on weekends and select weeknights, and I’m committed to creating a safe, joyful, and reliable environment for your children!

Ryan $32 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I'm a warm, dependable 30-year-old based in Los Angeles with years of experience caring for children of all ages - from infants and toddlers to tweens. Originally from NJ/NY, I've lived in LA for three years and love this community deeply. After seven years in the fashion industry as a merchandiser and buyer, I'm now a graduate student pursuing my Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), so nurturing kids' emotional well-being is truly my passion. I have a valid driver's license and car, so school pick-up and drop-off is no problem! I love keeping kids engaged with arts and crafts, fun activities, and homework help, and I'm happy to welcome your pets too. I bring a calm, attentive presence to every family I work with. Feel free to reach out! Thank you very much! Ryan

Norma $35 per hour for 1 child

My name is Norma, I am 39 years old and I have 15 plus years experience working with children. I have an Associate's Degree in Child Development and I have had the opportunity to work with children from ages as early as 6 weeks old all the way up to school age. I worked as a preschool teacher for five years. I was the lead teacher in my classroom. Along with two other teachers, I had 24 children in our classroom. I am bilingual in both English and Spanish. I enjoy working with children and engaging with them in any environment. I enjoy reading to children, story time is one of my favorite things to do. I try my best to bring the book to life and I have the children engage with me. More than anything though, I enjoy singing and dancing with the little ones. I am a nurturer and believe that is why I love and enjoy working with young children and have been able to always build strong bonds and relationships with the children and families I’ve worked with

Courtney 4 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child

I’m a dedicated caregiver and teaching artist with a background in theatre, education, and childcare. Not only do I have years of nanny and babysitting experience, I have managed classrooms, supporting homework, organizing arts and crafts, and leading city adventures to museums and parks. I’ve taught classes ranging from improv to journalism, led youth performances, and created safe, welcoming spaces for kids to explore their creativity. Families value my patience, creativity, and ability to balance fun with structure. With years of childcare, teaching, and management experience, I bring energy, reliability, humor and warmth to every family I support.

Courtney is a wonderful caregiver! She is attentive, responsive, kind and patient with my son. She has watched him from as young as 3 weeks old to his current age of 9 months. My son immediately fell in love with her and she makes him giggle and smile constantly. I trust Courtney with my son and would highly recommend her!

Machandel $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi I'm Machandel (pronounced Ma-han-del). I've worked in childcare with kids of all ages, (two yr old room, four yr old room and K-5) but spent the most time being the lead teacher for the school-aged kids classroom at a daycare center (after school and all day during the summers). I also hold a certificate for completing a 45-hour childcare development course called "Early care, Education and family support”, and have been CPR certified in the past. More recently, I’ve extensively studied nervous system regulation and somatic practices which has given me gentle tools to help children stay calm, secure and feel emotionally supported. Im a huge animal lover and have a cat at home, but I grew up with dogs so I’m very comfortable interacting and caring for them as well. I love being outdoors, going on walks, playing board games and being creative. I’m looking for a consistent role (around 25 hours/week) with 1-2 kids. I’m happy to help with homework, fix simple meals, plan art projects, run errands, care for pets, and tidy up after the kids. Please feel free to reach out if you think I'd be a good fit for your family. :) **45 hour course certification & letter of recommendation from childcare center 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."

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)."
