Ariana $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Ariana, and I’m a college student with a genuine love for working with children and helping families. I’ve grown up in a large family with many younger cousins, so caring for and being around kids of different ages has always come naturally to me. I also volunteer at my former elementary school in my mom’s classroom and have experience helping in special education classes. Because of this, I’ve worked with children with many different personalities, abilities, communication styles, and individual needs. It has taught me to be extremely patient, attentive, understanding, and adaptable. I’m comfortable caring for multiple children at once and love actually interacting with them rather than just supervising. I’m happy to help with homework, arts and crafts, games, outdoor activities, reading, preparing meals and snacks, or finding activities based on what each child enjoys. I also have a strong swimming background and years of experience in water polo, so I’m very comfortable in and around the water. I’d be happy to help children become more comfortable swimming and practice basic swimming skills when appropriate and with parent permission. I’m also more than happy to make life a little easier for parents while I’m there! I can cook and prepare meals, do laundry, dishes, light cleaning, organizing, errands, grocery runs, and other everyday household tasks. I drive and have reliable transportation, so I’m comfortable helping with errands or transportation needs when arranged with the family. I’m also a dog owner myself, so I’m very comfortable around pets and understand that they’re part of the family too. I can help with feeding, walking, playing, and general pet care while I’m in the home. Most importantly, I’m responsible, dependable, patient, and someone who takes caring for another person’s child seriously. I understand that every family has its own routines, expectations, and parenting style, and I’m very respectful of following those. At the same time, I want kids to feel like I’m someone they can have fun with, talk to, and feel completely comfortable around. Whether a family needs childcare, homework help, pet care, errands, meal preparation, or an extra set of hands around the house, I’m flexible and genuinely happy to help wherever I can!

Lilian $25 per hour for 1 child

I have worked as a Caregiver/Med Technician for seniors/memory care for 5+ years and loved it. I also have done private care for multiple clients and Nannied for a year. I have 3 younger siblings that I’ve cared for my whole life, and I was a childcare attendant for a year and a half for infants-8 year olds. I lived in China for 2 years, and while I was there I spent my time working with children of all ages, teaching them english, lots of activities, and worked alongside children with autism and terminal illnesses. I grew up assisting in the nursery-5th grade at churches 1-3x per week. I’ve babysat kids from all ages, newborn to young teens. I love the gym, time outside, old movies, and Jesus! I would be more than happy to answer any questions you have and I look forward to hearing from you!

"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)."
