"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Hi! I’m Alanna — a dependable and caring nanny with several years of experience supporting children from newborn through early elementary ages. I’m currently a full-time nanny for a wonderful 2½-year-old in Upper Dublin, and I truly love what I do. 💛 I use the Juggle app for babysitting for it has a lot more jobs available. I do use this app as an extra avenue, but not as active:) I previously nannied for a family with five children (ages newborn–6), which helped me grow a strong skill set in multitasking, patience, and staying engaged with multiple little personalities at once. I focus on routines, safety, kindness, and turning everyday moments into learning opportunities. Since I finish work between 3-5PM Monday through Friday, I’m available most evenings and weekends for additional care or date nights. I’m new to Columbus and excited to meet more great families through UrbanSitter! A little about me: • CPR & First Aid certified • Reliable 3rd-row Honda Pilot with toddler seat + booster installed • Comfortable with pets (especially dogs!) • Competitive volleyball background — love keeping kids active and moving • Big reader and enjoy incorporating books/storytime into routines • Currently studying Business Management Technologies online • Exploring real estate on the side — very driven and goal-oriented I always do my best to bring positivity, structure, and genuine care into each home. I’m looking forward to helping your family and getting to know your kiddos!
“Good listener, asks smart questions and is very caring. My son had a great time and the whole night time routine was done to the letter.”

Montserrat $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi there! I’m Monse, and I truly enjoy spending time with children and helping them learn, play, and grow. I used to be an Au Pair and I took care of kids of different ages (from toddlers to school-age children) I also worked in a kids’ party room, where I organized games and activities, and have done occasional babysitting for several families. I’m a patient, caring, and responsible person who loves creating a fun and safe environment for kids. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing outdoors, or doing arts and crafts, I always do my best to make every moment positive and engaging. I’d love to bring my experience, energy, and warmth to your family! I’m a big animal lover and have experience caring for small and medium-sized dogs, but I’m always open to discussing other sizes too! I enjoy taking dogs for walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel loved, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away. Let’s connect!!
