Vuong $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone! 😊 I’m currently looking for a part-time babysitting job in the evenings or on weekends. I’m a preschool teacher, so I have lots of experience caring for young children and understand how important it is for kids to feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I’m also a mom of two, so caring for children is something I truly enjoy and have plenty of experience with. I’m responsible, patient, caring, and dependable. I’d love to help a family with date nights, evening childcare, weekend care, or occasional babysitting. If you or someone you know is looking for a trustworthy babysitter, please feel free to message me. I’d love to connect! ā¤ļø See you soon! Vuong

Carol $30 per hour for 1 child

My name is Carol, and I am a compassionate, dependable, and hardworking caregiver with over 6 years of experience. I worked for 5 years as a Nursing Assistant in Colombia, caring for seniors by assisting with personal care, mobility, companionship, meal preparation, and daily activities. During the past year, I also cared for two children, a 6-month-old baby and a 5-year-old, providing a safe, loving, and engaging environment. I also have professional experience cleaning homes and am happy to help with housekeeping, laundry, dishes, organizing, and meal preparation to keep your home clean and comfortable. In my free time, I worked as a dog walker, so I am comfortable caring for pets, taking them on walks, feeding them, and giving them plenty of attention. Families describe me as patient, trustworthy, organized, and caring. I always treat every child, senior, and pet with kindness, respect, and genuine compassion.

Hercy 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello. My name is Hercy and I am an experienced nanny looking for my next family. I am also open to occasional babysitting jobs as well. I have worked with children of all ages, from infants to elementary school age. I have been a nanny for just one child and also done nanny shares with up to 3 babies at a time. I have experience caring for children with special needs and health issues, such as asthma. I truly love the children I take care of. I take the role of nanny very seriously. I am CPR trained and responsible. I can help to establish routines, potty train, and nap train. I prepare healthy food for babies and toddler, if needed, and also clean up any messes the children make. I love to play, sing, and take children on adventures. I have an open mind and am always willing to learn more. I hope I can hear from you soon.

ā€œHercy is a wonderful nanny and has been a blessing to my family. She took care of my son from age 1.5 to age 3. She also cared for my daughter during this time, who is currently 8 years old. Hercy has treated my children like her own and truly loves them. She offered nurturing and stimulating care, with lots of educational outings and opportunities to socialize. She created a routine for my son, cooked nutritious food for both of my children, helped keep the house tidy, and even fed and walked my dog when needed. I especially like that she gave my kids her full attention, with lots of games, songs, and books in both English and Spanish, and did not spend time on her phone when she was with them. Hercy also went out of her way to celebrate holidays, bring over new toys, and even planned birthday parties for my son. I didn't expect any of this, it is just the type of loving care that she provides. If you are looking for a caregiver who truly loves children, is very experienced, and has an impressive work ethic, I encourage you to contact Hercy.ā€

"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."

"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)."
