Hello! I am 28 years old and born and raised in LA. I graduated from New York University as a psychology and American Sign Language student. I have an immense amount of special experience including being trained in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy and working with children on the Autism spectrum. I spent this past year working at a psychology consulting firm treating children with anxiety and behavior disorders. I was also a nanny and personal assistant for the same family in nyc for 9 years, I have worked with a variety of ages from 6 months to 12 years old. I love watching them learn and develop into unique individuals and contributing to that in any way is my true passion! I have worked with children since l was thirteen and plan to continue for many years.

The interview was good and Zoe was punctual and friendly with the kids!

Hello! My name is Andrea, I’m 25 years old and recently relocated to the Los Angeles area. I’m offering services in childcare, pet care, and household services. I’m a graduate from UCLA and have a background in social and community work. Most recently, my efforts have been related to Head Start services fostering child and family partnerships. I adore children and have been providing babysitting services since I was 14 years old. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, school aged children and teens. I’ve also worked with children on the autism spectrum. My responsibilities have included caregiving, tutoring, crafting, and mentoring. I can also cook and clean. I look forward to nurturing relationships with potential children and families! :)

Andrea is excellent. She was on time, very kind, very professional. I highly recommend her.

COVID-VACCINATED* Hello dear family, I would like to share some things about me, my experience and why I really like babysit, well, I work with children since when I was 16 years old, I used help a little girl with her homework, I also worked in one big school, I had the habillity to take care of a lot children at same time, age 2 at 12 years old, I also babysit for familes, I am so glad to had the experience to take care of twins babies, I am comfortable taking care children with age newborn to 14 years old, thats all the ages that I already took care, why I like babysitter? well, the good question would be, how I would not like? I know there are children with a strong personality haha, but all kids just want the same thing, that is have fun, thats why I never had problem with them, my priority it is the safety, but also for me it is important they have fun, they are children, children want explore, use the imagination, play, thats why I always have a great conection with them, because when I am with them, I turn a kid 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)."
