Jessica $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Jay! I have taught almost everything from break dancing to Montessori schools to paper mache, and would love to bring what I learned from all of these experiences to your kid! Previously, I have taught ASL & english, handbuilding and wheel-thrown ceramics, social justice lessons suited to all ages, watercolor, craft arts (because who doesn't love a good friendship bracelet‽), breakdancing & hip hop, STEM-based lessons, and I've developed nature-based curriculum while I worked with Deaf kids and other kids with disabilities. And during all of these roles, I tried to be whoever my students needed me, meeting them where they were, so I was also a therapist, a caregiver, an artist, a friend, a listener, a janitor, a manager, and thousands of other roles. Even though my background is mainly child & student-focused, this has only made me a fast adapter for whatever your needs may be! So if that includes walking your dog, feeding your cat, or doing a grocery run, I'm here for it all, and however you need it to get done!

Hi! My name is Camila, and I offer child care and household support services. I love working with children and have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids in a daycare setting.

"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)."
