Lydia $40 per hour for 1 child

I’ve always loved being around children, and I gained a lot of hands-on experience helping my mom with her daycare, which she ran for 15 years. Through that experience, I learned the importance of being patient, responsible, and attentive to each child’s needs. I enjoy playing with kids, keeping them entertained, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m a dependable and caring person who understands that every child has their own personality and needs. I also have a dog and a cat of my own, so I’m very comfortable around animals and happy to help care for pets, too. I genuinely enjoy helping others and would love to be someone families can trust and feel comfortable leaving their little ones with!

Mariel $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello!! My name is Mariel and I am pursuing a degree in Marketing. I am offering my services as a nanny. I have been a nanny for over 8 years and it has taught me so much in so many aspects. I have taken care of kids between the ages of 8 months old to 11 years old. I really enjoy spending time outdoors and doing different activities with kids. My responsibilities have been different with different families, depending on the age of the child, but my basics have been doing the kids’ laundry, cleaning the kids’ dishes, and putting them in the dishwasher. I have driven/walked to kids’ activities, and so much more. Something that I have heard from the families is that they perceive me as a bubbly person. If you want to know more about my experience and me, don’t hesitate to reach out!! Hope to connect with you soon. Ps: I can give good references.

"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)."
