Hello, I'm Cami! I’ve been working with kids since high school through babysitting and tutoring, and for the past three years I’ve also worked as a tennis coach for children. I love caregiving because I enjoy getting to know kids, supporting their interests, and creating a safe, fun environment for them. I am a bilingual Spanish speaker, intermediate in French and a beginner in Japanese and Korean. In my free time, I love doing puzzles, playing games, and spending time with my dog, Moe 🐶

$21 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Anisa. I’m 19 years old and have a strong love for caring for children. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15 and have experience with newborns, infants, toddlers, and older kids. Growing up having to take care of my siblings. I’m also a caregiver and currently in school studying to become a pharmacy technician. I’m a daughter of God — patient, nurturing, and responsible. I enjoy spending time with kids and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I can also help with light cleaning, meal prep, and cooking if needed. I’m currently in the process of getting my driver’s license, but able to commute. In my free time, I love going to the gym and staying active. I’m excited to help families who need someone trustworthy and kind to care for their little ones.

Anisa is our neighbor and we thought she would be great babysitter for me and my husband , she has been watching our baby since he was 1 and he is now 5 years old . We just had our baby girl last month and she has been catering and being the biggest help in the household. Greatest blessing to us and always helping she is like family to us!!

Booked by 2 families in Torrance, CA

Hi! My name is Alexis and I am 26 years old. I am a UCLA graduate. I am a very easy going, friendly and creative person. I love art and going on adventures! I'm also fluent in Spanish! I love children and have been babysitting children of all ages, (including newborns), all over the South Bay/LA area for the past 12 years. I was a full time nanny to a family of 3 under the age of 3 for 4 years until the family moved out of state. I can provide referrals if requested. I am also the oldest grandchild amongst a very large family so I've grown up with the babysitter role. My parents are teachers as well, so I am good with teaching and helping with homework. I am very comfortable with cooking, driving or taking the children out to play. I drive a 2017 Jeep Cherokee, I am insured by AAA and have full coverage. I can't wait to meet your family!

Aidde $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, my name is Aidde, and I am looking for my next full-time family! Unfortunately, my current nanny family is moving, and I hope to be able to care for your little one with as much love and care as I did for all my former little ones. I graduated from California State University with a bachelor’s in Science and tutored extensively, particularly helping little ones with math and reading. This is predominantly how I began my career as a nanny! I have worked in this industry for the past 7 years specifically with babies as little as four months and often with two or three more children in one household. Examples of areas I have worked include Pacific Palisades, Malibu, Manhattan Beach etc. I am comfortable transporting the children to school or extracurricular activities, along with any cooking or meal prepping that needs to be done. Traveling with the family is another example of the help I am able to provide, along with overnight stays, either local or while on vacation. I am very flexible with start times and end times; I often work long shifts, date nights, weekends, and holidays. Other services I am able to provide, include help with the laundry for the entire family, loading and unloading dishes from the dishwasher, organizing the fridge and pantry, grocery store trips, and more. I love animals and have often helped to care for them while the family is on vacation. I am CPR certified and possess all covid vaccines/booster shots. As a nanny, I love to incorporate my experience in education by helping them learn to read before they begin school, along with a second language. It is very important that children learn from a young age to set aside a small amount of time to study and learn; for example either learning how to blend sight words or learning the basics of biology. I can help make it fun and easy!

Christina $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! My name is Christina, and caring for children has been my passion for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a family daycare, I was surrounded by the joy and energy of little ones, which inspired me to dedicate my life to early childhood education. With over 15 years of hands-on experience working in our family daycare, I’ve nurtured children of all ages, creating a loving and safe environment where they can learn and grow. I earned my Teacher’s Associate Certificate from UCLA to further my knowledge and skills, and I am currently an infant teacher at a preschool. I truly believe that every child deserves patience, warmth, and encouragement to thrive. My goal is to support families by providing the highest level of care, ensuring that both children and parents feel safe, valued, and supported. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your little ones and be a part of their early learning journey!

"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)."
