Hi! My name is Alejandra and I am 32 years old. I am completing my Child Development school journey at Pasadena City College and an Elementary School Librarian in the Rosemead School District. I am fluent in both Spanish and English and would love to incorporate both if that is something of interest. Taught English in an amazing Elementary in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico. I enjoy being around kids, and feel that creating a connection with them comes at ease. Mother to a lovely boy and I am now experiencing childcare from a parent’s side, appreciating all that a parent does and bettering all the skills that are needed towards a child and their care. I love working with children and I would love to enrich and be a part of your child's life!

Hello LA families🩷 My name is Marta and I am 29 years old, originally from Madrid/Spain. I recently relocated from Denver, Colorado ( lived there for 11 years ) and looking to connect with wonderful families here in Los Angeles. I come with quite the background in the field with 16 years of experience working with children of all ages. I specialize in newborns and infants-toddlers but also love working for school aged kiddos and older kids as well. I worked for many families in Denver. I speak English-Spanish and some French. I have a reliable car Experience with kids with special needs-autism Experience with oxygen and feeding tubes Super comfortable with baby led weaning CPR and first aid Infant sleep trained ASL Up to date to all vaccines Background check Legal to work in the USA I am a super active and structured nanny. Love taking the kids outside everyday and on adventures to the library-park-music class/story time, prepare fun activities to help develop and achieve milestones. I enjoy doing arts and crafts ( went to Architecture and Engineering school ), singing, dancing, reading with children and the list goes on. I am a super easy going, hands on, reliable- sweet nanny. I also provide overnight care as well for many families. I am looking to connect with families for babysitting-overnights and weekends. I am working full time 7-3 pm for now but that could change so open to talking about potential full time positions as well. But for now, I would love to become part of your family supporting with evening care-weekend care.

We absolutely loved having Marta as our sitter. She started watching our son when he was 1-2 years old and he loved spending time with her. We always loved how Marta truly engaged with our son. Marta is professional, communicative, and excellent at following routines. Highly recommend her for any family.

"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)."
