Hi, there! My name is Alyssa, and I am native to the Bay Area, having moved to LA in 2024. I love to read, learn about different cultures, cook, and spend time outdoors, usually by taking long walks around the neighborhood with my dog or just sitting outside and soaking in the sun. Having grown up in a big family I’ve always been surrounded by kids and loved it. Their happy-go-lucky nature and inquisitive spirit make it a joy for me! In terms of childcare experience: I've spent three summers working as a camp counselor for Steve and Kate's Camp in San Francisco. The attendance of campers varied on a daily basis but the Sunset location's average was around 130 kids. The ages ranged from 5 to 13. Every day was busy, and I never knew what to expect, but it was always a lot of fun. For three separate summers, I worked as a teaching assistant at my old high school, St. Ignatius College Prep, mainly working with middle school-aged kids. I’ve been using the app Urbansitters since about 2018 and I’ve gotten to know many lovely families as a result. I love getting to know all sorts of different kids. Even though they may be young, they all have their own unique personalities, which makes my job of hanging out with them all the more fun. If you have any questions please contact me. Hope to hear from you! :)

Hi! I’m Mia. I’m new to the urbansitter app, I’m a high school graduate, and I am looking to build up my childcare experience to become a full-time nanny in the future. I genuinely enjoy being around kids, teaching, and nurturing their growth. I have hands-on experience working with children of all ages, from toddlers all the way up to early teens. I pride myself on being incredibly patient, attentive, and responsible. In my free time, I am a very outgoing person who loves hiking and traveling. I am completely flexible and available for all hours, including last-minute backup care and weekend shifts. I look forward to meeting your family!

Mia was so helpful and attentive to my son’s need. She followed the itinerary I provided, and did everything I asked. She is so sweet and understanding, my son LOVES HER! Already booking her again for the coming week. She is great with kids!!

Peace! My name is Jaime, and I am a dedicated nanny/babysitter. I have over 5 years of experience working with families as a nanny, doula, postpartum work and more. I have gained the reputation that I am responsible, energetic, a great listener, open-minded, & have a free spirit approach. Growing up in a fairly large household has led me to babysit most of my teenage and adult life. Additionally, I am well experienced with children from infants to toddlers and up! I’m CPR certified, have a license, am a certified full-spectrum doula, as well as a certified Reiki Practioner and am a Holistic Nutritionist currently studying for the board exam. As a doula, I care for pregnant moms on their spiritual journey into motherhood, as well as helping postpartum, and as a Reiki healer, I give energy healing to mothers! I’m currently open to help a family FULL TIME with postpartum help and or support with newborns/ infants.

"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)."
