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

Here’s a little about me: I’m energetic, compassionate, creative, and love working with and caring for children. I’m originally from San Francisco, went to undergrad at Tulane in New Orleans, and am currently in my second year getting my masters in clinical psychology at Pepperdine (West LA campus). During the week, you can find me working as an ABA behavior technician working with kids on the autism spectrum, at my practicum site working as a school therapist at a TK-8, in class, or finding any opportunity to do something creative and/or be outside! I have over 8 years of working with kids (generally ranging from 3 months to 14 years old) in school, summer camp, and babysitting settings.

Kids liked her a lot! Said she was funny 😆 Showed up on time, did a good job

Booked by 1 family in Tarzana, CA

Hello, My name is Melody, and I am a native Santa Monican, and I was born at UCLA Medical Center. I am the baby of five, and I looked after my beautiful, beloved Mom with pleasure and honor in her later years, and it was a privilege to do so. She was such a caring, loving and awesome Mom, and I have all of her great traits of honesty, integrity, loyalty, compassion, to name a few. I am also a loving, compassionate, empathetic, caring being who has discovered what my mission is in this lifetime, and I want to express this in all ways to live up to my potential. Her transition has awakened this realization in me. Spreading all of this joy, especially to our elder population, would give me much satisfaction while ensuring that all their needs are provided for and making their lives smoother and more enjoyable. Thank you in advance for allowing me to do so.

I am an experienced nanny located in West LA looking for either a part-time morning position or a full-time position. I also babysit on weekends and evenings and have occasional openings during the week. I have over 10 years of childcare experience. I love working with kids and have the most experience with ages 0-6. I am especially passionate about infant care. In addition to ensuring the safety of the children I care for, I enjoy doing age appropriate activities with them such as games, reading, parks, zoo, art etc. I have built very strong relationships with the families I have helped in the past and look forward to creating more!

"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)."
