Alejandra $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Alejandra, I’m originally from Colombia and my native language is Spanish. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Philosophy and Spanish Education, and I worked as a middle and high school teacher before moving to the U.S. I’m currently in my second year here, where I’ve gained extensive experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-age children. I consider myself a patient, responsible, and highly organized person. I truly enjoy spending time with kids—teaching them, supporting their routines, and sharing the joy in everyday moments. I love creating meaningful learning experiences, whether it’s through play, reading, or exploring outdoors. I would love to support your family with dependable and nurturing care. Let me know if you have any questions!

Tiffany $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Tiffany, and I’m 22 years old. I’ve been a professional nanny for over 5 years and have had the opportunity to work with more than 50 wonderful families. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from newborns to elementary-aged kids, in both full-time and part-time roles, nanny shares, date nights, and occasional care. Before becoming a nanny, I coached gymnastics for young children, which is where I realized how much I genuinely love working with kids. That experience taught me patience, creativity, and how to make learning and play fun while helping children build confidence. As a nanny, I’m comfortable with all aspects of childcare. I’ve cared for infants through every stage, prepared bottles and meals, changed diapers, followed nap schedules, helped with potty training, planned age-appropriate activities, and encouraged learning through play. I love spending time outdoors, going on walks, visiting parks, reading books, doing arts and crafts, sensory play, building forts, baking, playing games, and creating fun activities that keep children engaged while supporting their development. I’m also experienced with school-aged children and regularly handle school drop-offs and pick-ups, driving to activities, helping with homework, preparing snacks and meals, and keeping kids on a consistent routine. I have reliable transportation, a clean driving record, and I’m CPR certified, so parents can feel confident their children are in safe hands. I pride myself on being dependable, organized, patient, and easy to communicate with. I believe every child deserves a safe, loving, and engaging environment where they can learn, grow, and have fun. Building long-term relationships with families is one of my favorite parts of being a nanny, and I always strive to be someone both parents and children can trust. Outside of work, I love traveling, spending time with friends and family, and being outdoors. I truly enjoy what I do and feel so grateful to have a career that allows me to make a positive impact in children’s lives every day.

Michell $28 per hour for 1 child

Professional Nanny Profile I am a nanny with over 3 years of experience in the United States, providing dedicated care to two children (currently 8 and 4 years old), having accompanied the youngest since she was 18 months old. My professional background covers both early childhood and school-age development, allowing me to effectively adapt to the unique needs of each stage. I hold a First Aid certification and also bring prior experience from my family’s childcare business in Colombia, where I gained a strong foundation in early education and child development. As a patient, caring, and creative individual, I particularly enjoy organizing outdoor activities and fostering a love for reading. Additionally, I am skilled in preparing balanced meals, including those tailored to special dietary needs such as vegan options. I am proud to have an outstanding reference from the family I currently work with, with whom I have built a long-term relationship based on trust and commitment. This experience reflects not only the quality of care I provide but also my dedication to becoming a supportive presence in children’s lives.

"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."
