Hi! I’m Iisha. I’ve lived in Utah for most of my life, and I’m now raising my family here with my husband and our two school-aged children. I have a deep love for kids and truly enjoy spending quality time with them. I’m passionate about creating fun, engaging, and nurturing experiences for children. Some of my favorite activities include reading, arts and crafts, cooking, outdoor play, and outings to places like the library, zoo, or aquarium. I'm also very comfortable with daily routines like diaper changes, naps, feedings, and light household tasks. I’m happy to help with pets (both cats and dogs) and light errands as needed. Safety is a top priority for me—I am CPR certified and always focused on creating a safe, caring environment. I would love to support a family looking for a nurturing, reliable nanny to care for and connect with their little one(s) during the week!
“Highly recommend! Always shows up early but most importantly the kids love her. Great with keeping the kids engaged. Takes them on walks, makes meals, & cleans up! We never have to worry about the kids when Iisha is taking care of them!”
- I've raised two children and also babysat for friends and family. I like to cook and do crafts with older kids. I have some mobility issues so cannot get up/down from the floor easily. - I've provided companionship and caregiver assistance for elderly patients in home hospice. - I regularly pet/house sit for dogs and cats. I'm a member of TrustedHousesitters where I have multiple 5 star reviews. - I'm willing to do shopping, errands, meal prep, etc. as well as light cleaning such as loading/unloading the dishwasher, folding laundry and cleaning up after meals.
I was born and raised in Utah! I go to the university of Utah and I go to school Monday Wednesday and Friday just from 2-4. I used to nannie a little boy from 4 months till he was a year and a half. But I have little cousins that I used to baby sit all the time! I love babies and toddlers. I will have fun with the kids and do activities with them. I am reliable, I have a pretty open availability besides when I have school, I am patient, and my top priority is making sure the kids are safe and well taken care of:). I have lots of experience in taking care of pets! I was a dog/cat sitter for a lot of people for a couple years and i loved it! I also have a dog of my own that I take care of. I really enjoy cleaning as well. And would be happy to help with any chores or running errands that need to be done.
I was a nanny for a family of 3 beautiful baby girls. Olivia (3-6), Gabby (1-3), and Izzy (4 months-2) so I have plenty of experience with children. I also babysat for another family that has 3 children - two girls, one boy, same ages as the previous family. The third family I provide date night services for has two wonderful children - 9 year old boy and 5 year old baby girl. The fourth family I occasionally babysat for have 3 beautiful children - 5 year old girl, 2 year old baby boy, and 1 year old baby boy. Growing up I always wanted to watch my younger siblings and cousins and surround myself with babies. I have a giant heart so when I babysit I end up loving the children like they are my own and care about them tremendously. I would love the opportunity to meet your babies!
Hi my name is Hercy! I have experience taking care of kids between 6 months old to 10 years old. I took care of 3 beautiful girls for almost 3 years. Also I used to take care of a baby boy for 6 months, he was 5 months old then. I can take them to different activities. Also I love dogs so if you have one I will feel comfortable and happy as well around them. I speak Spanish so I can teach them some words if you want me to do it!
“Our boys loved hanging out with Hercy! They talked about all the fun things they did, from playing with toys to building things to going sledding. Hercy was also flexible when we were running late. Would definitely recommend Hercy!”
