My name is Angie, and I’m a 24-year-old with over 7 years of babysitting experience. I currently work at a private Christian school in the valley, where I’ve had the privilege of caring for and teaching children of all ages. I absolutely love being a helping hand to parents, especially when it comes to giving them a chance for a much-needed date night! I understand how important it is to have those moments to reconnect. I’m also recently married and excited to start working with new families. I look forward to providing safe, fun, and caring support for your little ones while you enjoy some time for yourself!

My family is so glad we found Angelica! She is dependable and punctual. Her energy is positive and fun, and she is patient, sweet and overall great with kids.

Hello! I’m a high-profile Nanny who recently relocated to Wid-City area. I hold an AA degree in Social and Behavioral Sciences, plus certificates in Early Childhood Education and an Associate Teacher’s Permit from UCLA Extension. Working with children has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I started babysitting at 15, and over the past 30+ years, I’ve cared for children of all ages—in homes, schools, and even for military families while parents were deployed. As a former licensed family childcare provider and Early Childhood Educator, I’ve managed groups of up to 20 children and am comfortable supporting kids with developmental disabilities and behavioral challenges. I bring a lot of energy and creativity to my work. Storytelling is one of my favorite ways to connect with children—I’m animated, expressive, and love sparking their imagination. I also enjoy teaching fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination through hands-on learning, creative play, and arts projects like jewelry making. My goal is always to make learning fun while building confidence and curiosity. I love pets, but am extremely allergic to cats, rabbits (EpiPen).

Hi! My name is Grace! I am a behavioral therapist. Working with children is my passion. My passion developed when I ironically was a child myself. It all started on November 12, 1998, the day I finally became a big sister. I was always the youngest of my four sisters and one brother. When I became a big sister, I loved it. I always wanted to help, play with, provide for, and keep my younger brother and younger sister safe. That became something that stuck with me and blossomed beyond my big sister duties. My love for working with children got deeper and more loving. I started babysitting for family and then neighbors. I worked for an after school program and eventually became a preschool teacher. My current job doesn't even feel like work. That's how much I love working with children. Also, I have a car and I'm more than willing to drive kids around! Not a problem at all!

"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
