Hello! My name is Jay, I'm 26 & a parent to a 6 y/o looking for a new nannying position! I have been a lead pre-toddler teacher at two different centers for about 3 years total & im trying to get back into nannying again. I'm specifically looking for a family who is LGBTQ+ friendly and will not have issues with someone apart of that group. I will not be able to work for anyone who is not ok with that and can't provide a good and safe environment for me to work in. I love babysitting, pet sitting, and also enjoy doing house cleaning work while I'm on the job if needed! As a lead teacher I create weekly lesson plans for my 1-2 y/o kiddos with daily activities made to help their developmental growth by learning through play! If you're interested, I'd love to incorporate that into my job for your little one. I can take kids anywhere they need to be during the day via car as well. I am also CPR, First Aid, and MAT certified. I am looking for full-time hrs & roughly a 8am-5:30 p.m. schedule

Elena Cartersville
$15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Elena, an all-around easy person to get a long with. I’m a little weird and quirky enough for kids to like me, but hardworking and serious enough to get tasks accomplished. I live on a farm with enough animals to open a small petting zoo and lots of fresh veggies, flowers, and knowledge that I love to share with others. Living where I do, you tend to pick up strays of all sorts. Over the past 10 years I’ve helped raise several kids that ended up on my doorstep. Before that I was a caretaker for an older woman with Lupus. If you need an extra hand to help take the load off, whether with children, pets of all kinds, a beloved older family member, or just help around the house and yard, look no further. I’m here to help you.

"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."
