Emma $21 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Emma, and I'm finishing my first year at NOVA. I offer childcare mainly, as well as pet care and errand assistance when needed. I spent a year as a full-time teacher’s aide in a 2–3 year old classroom, and I've been babysitting/tutoring elementary and middle school children since I was 16. I’m especially looking to earn more experience with infants (3 months–2 years). I love babies and have cared for infants in the past, but I’m hoping to build more consistent, hands-on experience. I enjoy keeping kids engaged—whether it’s short outdoor play, art, dancing, or building activities. I’ve worked with tantrum-prone toddlers and know how to stay calm, patient, and professional. I aim to create a fun, safe space where kids feel seen and supported. Looking forward to connecting with your family!
Ashley $25 per hour for 1 child
I’m an educator who currently works at a PreK–12 school and have experience working with children and teens of different ages and personalities. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and love making sure kids are safe while still having fun! Depending on what your kiddos enjoy, I’m always down for arts and crafts, baking, board games, movie nights, trips to the park, library outings, or coming up with a fun activity at home. I’m also happy to help with homework, meals, bedtime routines, and transportation. I have my own reliable car and am comfortable with school pickups/drop-offs and getting kids to activities. I’m also happy to help around the house with laundry, dishes, tidying up, and light cleaning. I’m flexible and happy to work with whatever routines make things easiest for your family.

I am a wonderful, caring, and experienced nanny who is available Sept 5th . I have been a nanny for over 18 years, bilingual French and English . I have experience with newborns through teens. I have experience taking care of 4 kids at the same time I have worked for a wonderful family for three years, and they were 3 and 6 years old . In my previous experience, I was with another wonderful family for 7 years. I believe in teaching manners , respect, and having fun with kids. Communication and respect are keys amongst the nanny and parents. I am a big fan of the outdoors, reading, music, and legos even though I am horrible at it lol.... In my free time (weekends), I love to road and gravel bike , hike, and take lots of road trips. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions and the position you have to offer. Chores: everything related to the kids Transportation: I have my own reliable car and clean driving record - if use of my car for kids Transportation mileage and gas reimbursement. Vaccination: Covid-19, boosted, flu shot CPR certified .
“Nadjma knew how to handle my strong-willed children and was very easy to work with. Would recommend!”

"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."
