Gabriela 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hey Guys!! My name is Gabi, I’m a 19 year old looking for a full time job as a nanny! I have had experience with kids from ages 6 months- 5 since I was 15. My mom is a daycare owner and I was her assistant for about 3 years . I love working with kids and am excited to hopefully find a family I can work for! I can cook, clean, help with homework if needed, and if you guys have pets, I love animals and would love to help as well. I have also graduated high school! I have cpr documents/papers if needed. Thank you :)!

ā€œā­ā­ā­ā­ā­ We couldn’t recommend Gabi more! She has been babysitting both of our daughters for the past three years, and we trust her completely. Our girls are now 2 and 4, and she has built such a special bond with them. She always keeps them entertained with fun activities while providing the most loving, patient, and safe care. The biggest testament to how amazing she is? Our daughters are constantly asking, ā€œWhen is Gabi coming over to play?ā€ They absolutely adore her, and as parents, there’s nothing better than knowing your children are so happy and excited to spend time with their babysitter. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, caring, engaging, and truly loves the kids she watches, Gabi is the absolute best. We are so grateful to have found her!ā€

Nathalia 2 reviews
$26 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Nathalia! I've been caring for kids since I was young — babysitting toddlers through school-age children for family and family friends for as long as I can remember. I also spent about a year and a half as a preschool aide working with children ages 2–4, supporting early learning in a structured classroom setting. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, which gives me a helpful lens for understanding how kids think, communicate, and grow. Beyond childcare, I'm also comfortable with well-trained pets and happy to help with furry family members too! What I love most about caregiving is building genuine connections — kids have such curious, energetic minds, and I find so much joy in being a trusted, nurturing presence for them.

ā€œWe’ve used Nathalia several times, for years, and for both my kids and she’s exceptional! Nathalia is reliable, professional, and truly loved by my kids. She’s patient, creative, and consistently follows our dietary needs and preferred activities with care. Always on time, always kind, always dependable. A genuinely outstanding person. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter that you can feel comfortable leaving your kids with, knowing they will be perfectly cared for.ā€

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
