Hi! Im Frances (or Frankie), and I’m a dependable and friendly babysitter who loves working with kids of all ages. I’m currently studying Early Childhood Development at ECC, and through that, I’m passionate about helping children grow, learn, and feel safe in a nurturing, supportive environment. Through my coursework, I’ve gained a strong understanding of child development, age-appropriate activities, and positive behavior guidance! I love creating attention supportive, creative experiences for kids, whether that’s arts and crafts, reading together (my favorite!!) outdoor play, or fun learning activities tailored to their age and interests. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive, and I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident and comfortable leaving their little ones in great hands! My goal is always to provide a safe, supportive, and fun environment where children feel heard, valued, and happy. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on creating a safe and positive environment. I follow routines carefully, communicate clearly with parents, and enjoy helping kids feel supported, happy and comfortable. I’d love to help support your family in any way I can!!

Frankie was fantastic! She is polite, punctual, and organized. She was also great with the kids and jumped right in to play with them and engage them. They had a blast with her.

I’m an experienced nanny, educator, and mother serving families throughout the South Bay and Los Angeles. I currently work as a TK Instructional Aide in Hermosa Beach while completing my Early Childhood Education coursework and pursuing my California teaching credential. I hold a B.A. in Developmental Psychology from UCSB and have worked with children for over 15 years in a variety of roles, including nannying, live-in au pair work, tutoring, classroom support, mother’s helper positions, and household assistance. My experience ranges from infants and toddlers to elementary-aged children, including children with learning differences special needs. I provide warm, reliable, and developmentally appropriate care focused on helping children feel safe, supported, and engaged. I enjoy incorporating outdoor play, reading, art, baking, and hands-on learning into daily routines. For younger children, I focus on responsive caregiving, routines, language development, and play-based learning. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to assist with light household tasks, home organization, errands, meal prep, pet care, and helping keep the home running smoothly. I have dependable transportation, am pet-friendly, and can provide excellent references. I’m currently seeking a consistent weekday position, ideally between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.

Laura babysat my four-year-old for the first time yesterday. She immediately gained his favor by having a few tricks in her bag, literally. She came prepared with many arts and crafts and little presents, which of course he loved. She took him to the park as well, which is one of his favorite pastimes. Highly recommend!

Hello, I graduated from California State University of Los Angeles with a bachelors in Criminal Justice. I am offering child care, animal care, and household services. I been a babysitter since I was 14 years old and recently had the opportunity to move on from childcare of two children that I been with for years! While that move was sad, I was glad I had the opportunity to watch them grow! My childcare services include, infant, toddlers, and kids. However, I worked more with infants and toddlers! My duties included cooking, cleaning, creation of crafts/games, driving to/from school, parks, and groceries stores. My hobbies are painting, working out, and cooking! I love animals and don’t mind working with them!

My son had a great time talking with and playing with Katie! She engaged him in all his special interests. She arrived on time and tidied all the toys up afterwards too 🙂

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
