Athaliah $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Athaliah, a mother to a baby girl born May 28, 2026. I’m currently looking for work to support myself and my daughter and provide a stable future. Since I’m my daughter’s only caregiver, I wanted to ask if you would be comfortable with me bringing her with me while I work. It would mean a lot to me and would allow me to earn an income while caring for her. I’m a caring, patient, and dependable caregiver with experience taking care of babies, toddlers, and young children through helping family, friends and work over the years. I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children where they can feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. I also previously worked as a behavior technician supporting children with autism and Down syndrome, which helped me develop strong communication skills, patience, understanding, and the ability to adapt to each child’s unique needs and personality. I’m open to helping with childcare, tutoring/teaching, light housekeeping, house sitting, organizing, meal prep, and cooking as needed. I’m responsible, attentive, gentle, and always try to make families feel at ease knowing their children are in good hands. I value kindness, cleanliness, safety, and creating positive connections with both parents and children.

Colette $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! Caring for kids has always been something I truly love, and I bring both energy and responsibility into every family I work with. I’ve had experience with children of different ages, from toddlers to pre-teens, and I enjoy being part of their day-to-day growth — whether that means helping with homework, driving to activities, or setting up fun games and crafts at home. I also have specialized experience caring for kids with unique needs. From 2[removed], I was a caretaker for a girl with Autism, where I focused on creating calm, structured routines while also celebrating her creativity and independence. From 2024 - 2025, I was a caregiver for a young girl with Down Syndrome, and I love supporting her milestones, encouraging her confidence, and finding activities that make her feel engaged and happy. When I’m with kids, I make sure they feel safe, heard, and cared for — but also that they have fun and can be themselves. I’m reliable and organized, so parents can trust that schedules, meals, and routines are handled smoothly, but I also bring warmth and positivity into the home. I believe kids thrive when they know they’re understood and supported, and that’s always at the heart of how I care for them. Along with childcare, I also have experience in senior care, dog sitting, and house sitting. I understand how important it is for families to have someone they can depend on, whether that means providing companionship and support for an older loved one, taking care of pets with love and attention, or keeping a household safe and running smoothly while you’re away.

Navie $28 per hour for 1 child

I graduated in 2024 with a degree in Liberal Studies, with a strong focus on education and child development. I currently work as an English Literacy Interventionist, where I support students in building reading and writing skills through personalized, engaging instruction. I bring over 6 years of babysitting experience, along with 1.5 years working in a daycare setting caring for both infants and toddlers. In the daycare, I was responsible for supervising up to four infants or six toddlers at a time, ensuring a safe, structured, and nurturing environment. My experience extends beyond traditional classrooms, as I’ve worked in a variety of nontraditional teaching and caregiving settings. This has helped me become adaptable, patient, and attentive to each child’s unique needs. I prioritize creating a safe, educational, and fun environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and confident relying on me as a trusted adult. I also have experience caring for both dogs and cats during babysitting jobs and genuinely enjoy being around pets.

"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)."
