Nafina Los Angeles
$25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Nafina. I am a 23 year old tutor and teacher’s assistant looking for extra work beyond my current position. With 4 years of experience in the field of education with both elementary-age and university students, I hope to expand my skill set to babysitting! My experience in both education as well as other jobs including food service, retail, and program administration has equipped me as an adaptable, thoughtful, caring, and hardworking childcare provider. I deeply enjoy working with children in the classroom, where I tutor various subjects including mathematics, phonics, writing composition, and reading comprehension. This classroom experience has also given me the skills to support children’s overall development in addition to ensuring that they have an enjoyable, productive learning experience. Getting to know each of my students individually and ensuring that they each feel heard, understood, and supported is incredibly important for me. As for me personally, some of my personal hobbies include reading, drawing, journaling, and working out. I enjoy integrating creative activities into my lessons with my students and would love to bring that into my babysitting as well!

About Me Hi! My name is Maria and I have over 5 years of experience working as a nanny. I truly enjoy caring for children and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they can learn, grow, and feel supported. I have experience caring for children of different ages and can assist with daily routines, meal preparation, homework, transportation, bedtime, and engaging activities. I always strive to meet each child’s unique needs with patience and kindness. In addition to childcare, I also provide household assistance, including light housekeeping, organizing, laundry, meal preparation, and running errands. I am also comfortable caring for pets and making sure they receive the attention and care they need. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors. I love going to parks, relaxing at the beach, and participating in outdoor activities. I believe staying active and spending time in nature brings positive energy and creativity to every day. I am reliable, punctual, responsible, and attentive to each family’s individual needs. My goal is to provide dependable care and create a positive, trustworthy relationship with both children and parents. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family!

"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)."
