Hazel $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am a young artist that would love to help a family looking for part-time childcare. I am qualified due to years of babysitting local kids within my small hometown on the coast of California, as well as my two completed CTE (Career Technical Education) courses in Psychology and Psychological Development of Children. Completing these courses took 4 years total and I spent my senior year being Teachers Assistant and Art Teacher for students aged 6-11. I am quite young so I am able to connect with kids very easily and I genuinely enjoy their company. In terms of safety I am very reliable. I'm very and physically aware due to my High School years as an all-state wrestler. I continue to practice martial arts regularly, so if necessary I know how to protect anyone who needs help. I can keep up with kids energy levels and physical fitness. I am great with school assistance in all subjects and can navigate electronics with ease. As a caretaker, my goal is to find creative ways to help kids explore knowledge and the world around us.

Maura $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Maura, and I’m a 27 year old childcare professional with over 12 years of experience. As the oldest of five, I naturally stepped into a caretaker role early on, beginning to babysit at 15. From there, my passion for working with children grew! I spent my high school years helping neighbors and family friends, continued to nanny throughout college, and supported students with homework and after school routines. After graduating in 2020, I ran a learning pod for four young children, where I helped guide their virtual schooling and created a structured, supportive environment that felt as close to a classroom as possible. I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages, from infants through school-age, and I have experience balancing the needs of multiple children at once. I’m also happy to help with household tasks and am very comfortable with pets. I’ve cared for families with dogs and cats and love including them in the daily routine. I aim to bring warmth, patience, structure, and fun into every home I partner with. I’d love to get to know your family and support your children as they grow!

"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)."
