Booked by 3 families in Apex, NC

I am a 48yo married mother of an awesome 12yo son. I have been a registered nurse/case manager for almost 25 years- currently on disability. My goal is to earn a small amount of extra spending money doing something I love- caring for infants and young toddlers. I am trustworthy, dependable, accountable, with a clean driving record, non smoker, and non drinker. I love to nurture and play with infants and young children. I believe kids are happier and more secure with consistent boundaries, using firm but kind words. I would love to meet you and answer any questions you may have.

Tanya is very nice and professional. She comes on time and deliver the perfect service we expected. Thank you.

Hi! My name is Isha, and I'd love the opportunity to care for your little ones (and your furry family members, too!). I've always loved working with children because I genuinely enjoy helping them learn, grow, and have fun, just as I got to growing up! I have a year of experience as an Afterschool Activity Counselor at the YMCA, where I supervised groups of children, led games and activities, encouraged teamwork, and helped create a safe, positive environment every day. In addition, I've babysat for multiple families over the years and have experience caring for children of different ages. Growing up, I attended countless summer camps, and they inspired my love for creating exciting activities for kids! Whether it's arts and crafts, imaginative games, scavenger hunts, board games, baking, reading stories, or helping with homework, I love finding creative ways to keep children engaged while encouraging curiosity, confidence, and plenty of laughter. My goal is for every child to feel safe, included, and excited to spend time together. I'm also happy to assist with bedtime routines, tidying up after activities, and maintaining a structured routine that works for your family. I'm patient, dependable, and believe in balancing fun with responsibility. Along with childcare, I also offer cat care. I'm a proud cat parent myself, and my own cat is truly part of my family. I understand that pets aren't "just animals" but beloved family members who deserve the same love, patience, and attentive care. I'm experienced with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering lots of playtime and affection, and making sure cats feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. I'm also comfortable around shedding pets and happy to follow any specific care instructions to keep your furry friend happy and healthy! I'd love the chance to get to know your family and provide dependable, compassionate care you can feel confident about! Thank you for considering me and I look forward to meeting you! ◡̈

I had Isha help me with a camp I ran she was very creative and the kids liked doing things with her.

I have been babysitting since high school and have developed a strong, natural connection with children, allowing me to build lasting relationships with both the kids and families I support. I am a very creative person who loves planning fun, engaging activities, and I truly value creating meaningful memories that children will carry with them for a lifetime. Family is everything to me, and I bring that same sense of care and dedication into every home I work in. My experience has helped me become patient, reliable, and attentive to each child’s unique needs. I genuinely love caregiving because I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn and grow. I am also a big animal lover—I have two cats at home and a lab in my hometown—so I am very comfortable caring for pets as well. I take pride in being dependable, compassionate, and someone families can truly trust.

Katie has been an exceptional babysitter for our family, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She cared for our two children (ages 9 and 12) and consistently demonstrated maturity, reliability, and professionalism well beyond her years. Katie regularly picked the kids up from school, drove them safely to after-school activities, and kept everything running smoothly at home. She was punctual, responsible, and communicated clearly — which gave us complete peace of mind. What truly sets Katie apart is the energy and creativity she brings. She doesn’t just “supervise” — she engages. She came up with thoughtful arts and crafts projects, played board games, organized activities, and created a fun, structured environment. The kids genuinely looked forward to spending time with her, and that says everything. Beyond her competence, Katie brought warmth and positivity into our home. She built real rapport with our children while maintaining appropriate boundaries and expectations. We trusted her fully, and she consistently exceeded expectations. Any family would be fortunate to have Katie caring for their children.

"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."
