With over 12 years of experience in high-end fashion styling, I specialize in creating elevated, head-to-toe looks for busy moms who want to feel effortlessly polished for any event. My approach blends luxury styling with real-life practicality, ensuring each client feels confident, comfortable, and completely put together. Known for my eye for vintage fashion and one-of-a-kind pieces, I curate distinctive looks that stand out while remaining timeless. Through my exclusive local connections, I source top-tier fashion finds that aren’t easily accessible, giving my clients a truly personalized experience. I also design custom jewelry, allowing me to complete each look with unique, thoughtfully crafted finishing touches.

Helloooo family.! My name is Diana, i am from Tanzania, that’s means I cook everything with coconut and I can tell the kids all the safari animal stories.

My background includes a pharmacy degree from India, and after moving to the United States, I found my true passion in providing care and guidance to families through my work as a doula.

Hi, my name is Bella and I am offering child care. I have been babysitting since I was 14 years old, and have experience watching kids and toddlers. I’ve recently gained experience caring for infants with the birth of my new nephew. I can drive to school/appointments, tutor, and help with art projects. I am a very crafty person and can teach your child how to crochet/ knit/ weave/ or sew. I also know conversational American Sign Language. I love nature and the outdoors, and love playing in the dirt with little ones as well. I am also happy to work with animals of all kinds.

Bella was wonderful, sweet and engaging with my 5 year old. Will definitely book her again!

Sonia $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi Everyone, I am an Alumni at Saint Mary’s College of California. Currently, I am studying for the DAT to pursue a career in Dentistry. I have 3 cats and one dog who are my fur babies. I have loved animals since I was really young and still continue to feel that way. I became an auntie in 2019 to my niece who is now 6 years old. I babysat her when she was newborn, an infant, a toddler up until now. Along with that, I have three other beautiful nieces and nephews who I have had even more experiences with in babysitting. When babysitting them, I change diapers, bathe them, outdoor/indoor activities, reading, feed them and doing their nighttime routine for bed. Overtime, I learned more about kids such as working with each of them differently depending on the differences in personalities. My favorite days are the ones of taking my niece to school because it brings me back to my childhood. Babysitting has made me realize that my happiness is when I am with kids. It taught me to be patient, prioritize them, communicate with them and cherish every moment. This is why I am looking for a part time job for babysitting or working with animals, doing two things that I love!

"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)."
