$24 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 5 families in Carefree, AZ

Hi there! My name is Ofonimeh! I also go by Tayo! I’m 26 and I’m a senior at ASU. I've been a sitter/nanny for 8 years. Most of my experience comes from being an occasional/date night sitter. Over the last two years I've transitioned into being a full-time nanny. I believe in making the effort to provide a safe and comfortable space for the child/children. Nannies are a big part of a child's development. I want to be as supportive and nurturing as I can. I love arts and crafts. Painting, coloring, and making bracelets are some of the things I've done. I'm also a fan of baking with the kids. It's educational and fun!

Drew $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Drew, and I’m 20 years old 😊 I have lots of babysitting experience and truly love spending time with kids, whether it’s playing, helping with routines, or just being a positive and caring presence. I’d be so happy to be a helping hand for parents who need a little extra support, especially in the evenings! I’m very nurturing, fun, and patient, and I always try to bring out the best in everyone around me. I’m also a dancer and currently a double major in college, so I’m very organized and responsible. I’m available on some weekdays and weekends, and I have my own car with a clean driving record, so transportation is never an issue, even though the gas prices are! I’d love to be someone you can count on, whether it’s for regular help or occasional date nights. If you’re ever in need of someone friendly and reliable nearby, I’d be more than happy to help 💛

I know how important it is to feel completely at ease with the person caring for your child, so I always show up with kindness, consistency, and genuine attentiveness.

My goal is to make your little ones feel secure, understood, and well taken care of while giving you complete peace of mind. I’m happy to help with: • Daily routines and supervision • Meal and snack preparation • Light housekeeping • Homework and learning activities • Bedtime routines • Creative play and age-appropriate activities I would love the opportunity to support your family and become someone you can depend on.

Very interactive and engaging. My little one loves her.

Casey $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Casey, and I’m 34 years old. I was born and raised in Seattle and have happily called Arizona home for the past 12 years. I’m married, and while I don’t have children of my own yet, I hope to one day. In the meantime, I absolutely love being an aunt to my amazing niece (10) and nephew (7). They are my life! I have previous experience working as a nanny and have also worked in Montessori preschool setting. I am energetic, compassionate, dependable, and believe that children learn best through hands-on experiences, creativity, and play. Whether it’s crafts, outdoor adventures, reading, helping with homework, or educational activities, I enjoy creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment where children can grow and thrive.🌱🌻 I have been with the same employer for over 10 years, which reflects my loyalty, reliability, and strong work ethic. I am ready to move on and am very excited to find a wonderful family to work with, ideally throughout the school year, so I can get back to doing what I truly enjoy most—caring for children and supporting families.❤️ I have completely open availability, reliable transportation, and I’m happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, school pick-ups and drop-offs, errands, and other household tasks to help make your family’s day run more smoothly. I also love animals, so pets are always a welcome bonus! I’m willing to travel 20+ miles to find the right fit. I’m excited to meet you and see if we’re a great match. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me—I look forward to connecting with your family! 😊

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."

Eric D., dad of two
