Hello, my name is Nancy, I have experience because other than being a mother of 4 I was a provider of IHSS which stands for In-Home Supportive Services. I have taken care of seniors that require patience and much care and my last job I was working with a girl with special needs for 2 years. Now I have a part time with a baby girl 4-months-old and a Baby Boy 8-months-old I love working with all ages because each age brings its own adventures. In my free time I like to exercise, cook, and read. I also want to be honest, My English is not perfect But that is not an impediment to being a reliant and loving babysitter. I am also certified in adult and pediatric First Aid, CPR, & AED.

Nancy has been the greatest gift to our family. She started with our son at 5-months-old and has loved him like her own. She cooks for him, makes sure he is fed, happy, and exploring the world. She sings to him in English and Spanish, even combs his hair as she gets him ready for the day. She is kind, communicative, reliable, thoughtful, fun, detailed oriented, and beyond helpful. She proactively helps around the house in a way that brings me deep peace. I always know when Nancy has been in a room because it is spotless and filled with little details love. She even offers to help with our 3-year-old daughter when she has a day off from preschool. Both of our kids ADORE her. Please contact me for any further reference information, but in short: Nancy will be the best thing that happened to your growing family—to your baby, and you.

Hello, I'm a college graduate from UCLA with a degree in marine biology. I am now completely abandoning that and pursuing a career in television production, as many in Los Angeles do. I went to high school at Notre Dame Academy all girls catholic school in West LA. I have been watching children for over 12 years and before that took care of my younger sister. I am CPR certified, love playing games, singing, and would be honored to sit for you. Thank you in advance! I take venmo, and my rates go up for travel over 10 miles, depending on the length of the commute, and for holidays. My cancellation policy is within 24 hours, after that inquiring a 50% fee of the original time requested.

Molly was great! She accepted my last minute booking and was patient and kind with my cranky toddler.

"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)."
