Booked by 1 family in Tarzana, CA

Hello! My name is Cameron. I moved out here from Boston a few years ago and am excited to meet your family! Previously, I studied music therapy at Berklee College of Music before coming here to pursue music. I am offering child care, senior care, and pet care. During my music therapy studies, I focused on helping children with communication and social skills, and seniors with cognitive ability and memory care. I’m passionate about helping people of all ages express themselves and learn. I’ve been babysitting for various families in my hometown since my early teens, and love spending time with children. My responsibilities included driving kids to and from school, performing household duties, tutoring (any subject but math 😅), crafts, and music lessons. I have also taken care of my grandparents and great grandparents and feel very comfortable around seniors. Before she passed, I loved playing jazz songs for my great grandma and listening to stories from her past. I also have a dog and multiple cats, and would be happy to help you with any pet related needs. Please reach out if you feel that I would be a good fit for your family. I’m wishing you luck on your hunt for a caregiver!

Booked by 1 family in Tarzana, CA

Hi! I’m a recent UC Berkeley graduate currently continuing my education through a post-graduate certificate program, and I’m looking for a consistent nannying position that works well with my class schedule. I grew up in Marin and will be relocating to Los Angeles at the beginning of November. I have several years of experience working with children and families and would love to find a family I can build a consistent, long-term relationship with while completing my certificates.

“We feel so blessed to have found Ava to help care for our son. She is kind, smart, responsible, and very reliable. Our son instantly warmed up to Ava, and that is not what always happens. He felt comfortable with her, and so did we almost immediately. She is very easy going and creates an overall calm atmosphere in our home. She finds creative ways to play with our son, she takes him to the park and let's him explore while always being there to guide him, she reads to him, she plays water games outside with him when it's warm, she builds little forts and play stations for him while he naps for him to wake up to, and she even walks our chihuahua for us while our son naps. She is never on her phone while caring for our son, ever. And she's just a nice person. We wish we had met Ava earlier, but we are so happy to have met her now. We couldn't ask for a better and more professional caregiver, and anyone would be lucky to get to work with her.”

Sayuri 3 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Tarzana, CA

Hi! My name is Sayuri and I’m currently a first-year college student. I’m offering childcare, babysitting, and tutoring services. I genuinely love working with kids and have experience babysitting for several families, as well as caring for my younger siblings and cousins. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from little ones to teenagers, with most of my regular babysitting experience being with children ages 1–5. I’m comfortable adapting to different ages, personalities, and needs, and I’m happy to work with families with children of any age.I love doing arts and crafts, reading with kids, playing imaginative games, and finding fun ways to keep them entertained. I also offer tutoring and enjoy helping children learn in a way that feels encouraging and enjoyable rather than stressful.I’m responsible, patient, reliable, and very attentive. I understand that every child and family has their own routines and needs, so I’m happy to adapt and follow whatever works best for your family. I know how important trust is when it comes to having someone care for your children, and I always want parents to feel confident and at ease while their little ones are with me. I’d love the opportunity to become a sitter your family can rely on whenever you need an extra pair of hands! :)

"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."

"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)."
