Jason $15 per hour for 1 child

Hello, i am a father of 3 and an EMT-B. I have worked with children with disabilities for many years. My daughter and son but have medical conditions and also have worked with one family whos child has cerebral palsy part time till mom past away. Then i assisted a young lady part time who had down syndrome to teach life skills and prepare her for independent living. I love babies and loved my time teaching my 3 as they grew. I did work part time a couple years as a substitute teacher and in the classroom setting loved my time with k through 3rd and high-school. Younger kids were sponges for learning if made interesting and older kids were fine to do their work if i let them listen to earbuds. Anyway thats me. I may not seem like a traditional caregiver, but guys can be caring and fun too.

Booked by 1 family in Franklin, KY

Hi! My name is Amy and I live in Nashville. I have been a nanny and childcare provider for over ten years. I love working with children and watching them grow and excel.

We were so fortunate to have Amy care for our two-year-old. She is patient, attentive, and incredibly nurturing, and she quickly built a trusting, loving bond with our child. She has a wonderful understanding of toddlers and consistently engaged our child with age-appropriate play, reading, and daily routines that felt both structured and fun. Her communication was clear and reliable, and we always felt confident that our child was safe, happy, and genuinely cared for. Any family would be lucky to have her, and we recommend her wholeheartedly

I have a passion for kids, education, and persons with disabilities alike. I also have a year's experience working for a senior care company in Bowling Green, KY and love working with senior adults.

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
