Booked by 8 families in Universal City, CA

Hi👋🏻 A good nanny is not only someone who takes care of children, but also someone who provides them with love, security, and stimulation for their development. Three fundamental qualities that distinguish an exceptional nanny are empathy, patience, and creativity.🥰 As a plus, I work in a daycare from a few days a week , my vocation is really beautiful and I love my job🫶🏻 CPR First Aid Mandatory Report/ Finger Prints- Footprints / to work in daycare/ Experience with Children - Reference letter if necessary Vaccines/ Covid, Tuberculosis

Booked by 19 families in Universal City, CA

Hi! My name is Selene and I’m a University of Berkeley, California graduate with a B.A. in psychology. I started sitting when I was 13 and supported families in my neighborhood with their kids. In college, I worked for a church’s childcare group (ages 4 months-4 years) and tutored children in Spanish and math. I have loads of experience with school aged children (3-10). My child related job experience includes working in a domestic violence shelter for mothers and children of all different ages. We tutored, mentored, and provided childcare in the shelter using a non violent empowerment model. I also worked with elementary school children and teenagers working as an after school aid at non profit that provides services to children in the mission. I’ve had a few long term tutoring and sitting jobs and am currently looking to support a few families at a need basis! I like to co create activities with the children im caring for that are developmentally appropriate. For example, I love to use textured toys and sensory activities for infants to improve dexterity and color recognition and for children 4-8, I love to play games that help them move and use their imagination. (Dance party anyone?) I would describe my baby sitting style as engaged, imaginative and collaborative.

Hi! I’m Stephanie, I have a background in education and youth services. I’ve worked with children and teens in a variety of settings, including schools, programs, and homes, and I’ve also taught internationally in France, Spain, Greece, China, and Japan.

Hi families! My name is Jenny. Currently 31 years old! I have 10+ years of experience being a nanny. (I can provide with references.) I currently live in Atwater village, very close to Glendale. I love to be active, take kids on walks, go to museums, libraries. I am very organized, clean, responsible and patient. I love play time, learning, and having fun with the littles. I also know how to cook basic healthy meals and can also run errands for families and do light house work such as tidying up the house, make kids beds, clean kids rooms, toys, clean kitchen after meals. etc, I can also do kids laundry if needed. I am reliable and always on time. I strive to make sure my employers and I have a great relationship. I'm a good communicator with a friendly attitude. I'm also very clean and promise to always respect and honor any rules! If interested please respond with job duties, expected hours and schedules, and what you expect as a nanny/ family helper! Thank you so much! *CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE*

“Jenny started working with us when our daughter was only 4 months old. She’s been coming 3x’s a week for over a year and she’s been such a blessing. She’s timely, sweet, cooks amazing fresh meals, and our daughter absolutely LOVES her. They play, read, go out to the park, go for walks, etc. I get several texts daily with updates and pictures, which I love to see while I’m away at work. She speaks Spanish and English with her. I can leave for work with confidence that our daughter will be happy and cared for as if she were her own. We absolutely love Jenny and 100% recommend her to help with your family. We’ve been so fortunate to have her work with us the last 14 months and hope to have her in our lives for many years to come. ”

"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)."
