Grace 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Grace, a Certified Medical Assistant currently continuing my education in a surgical program. I have several years of childcare experience, including caring for children with special needs professionally. I am CPR and BLS certified, dependable, patient, and committed to providing a safe, fun, and supportive environment where children can learn, play, and thrive.

“We had a wonderful experience with her! She was able to help us on short notice, was very communicative throughout the process, and was incredibly friendly and kind. She spent time playing with the kids, reading books to them, and keeping them engaged. My children felt comfortable with her right away, and I felt at ease knowing they were in great hands. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring babysitter!”

Samara $20 per hour for 1 child

Hii, I’m Samara I have over 4 years of experience caring for children from newborns to 12 years old, always with dedication, responsibility, and warmth. During this time, I developed important skills such as creating safe routines, encouraging creativity through playful and educational activities, and supporting children’s emotional growth. In addition to my experience as a nanny/babysitter, I also worked as a Portuguese teacher for 8-year-old girls in a non-profit organization. This experience strengthened my patience, communication, and creativity while teaching, and it deepened my passion for working with children—helping them learn, develop, and thrive in a positive and nurturing environment. I also have knowledge of the Montessori approach, which allows me to foster independence, respect, and curiosity in children.

Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or sticking to routines, I bring a positive and reliable energy to every family I work with. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones!

"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)."
