Kristen $40 per hour for 1 child

With 18 years of experience caring for children of all ages, I truly love what I do. Building meaningful bonds with kids and meeting them exactly where they are is one of my greatest strengths. Organization is my superpower, and I use it to create calm, structured environments where children feel safe, supported, and able to thrive. I'm compassionate, patient, reliable, and creative, always thinking of engaging ways to help children reach their milestones while having fun. I also love supporting families as a whole and helping out wherever I can to make daily life run more smoothly. I'm excited to meet the next family I'll be working with, whether it be as a nanny or as a family assistant. If chosen as a family assistant, my rate is different, and I'm happy to chat about it when we meet. Please note that I am allergic to cats and most dogs.

Rajya Lakshmi $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi Families, I recently graduated from dental hygiene school and currently work at a dental office, but caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I’ve been looking after kids for over 10 years! My very first job in high school was at a daycare, and I’ve also helped raise my little cousins since they were babies. On top of that, my mom runs a daycare, so I often lend a hand there whenever she needs me. I truly enjoy being around kids and helping them grow, and I’m so excited to meet your little one!

"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)."
