Briana $18 per hour for 1 child

I've been babysitting for 10 years. At a young age, I started babysitting. I help raise my niece's and nephew's. I'm very good with kids. I make a great connection with them. I can help them with homework, learn new things for their growth and playtime. I took care of a 97 year old lady with dementia for about two years in her home. I feed her, help her change clothes, and kept her house clean. Lastly, I currently have a cat that I have had since he was a newborn. he's very well groomed and very healthy. I also help my friend with her dogs. I take them on walks, they eat twice a day and I play with all the animals.

Hi there! 👋 I’m a hardworking, kind, and outgoing babysitter who loves creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for kids. With over 5 years of experience, I’ve had the joy of working with children of all ages and personalities. I also have hands-on experience supporting children with special needs, including autism and developmental delays, and I always approach every child with patience, understanding, and care. I believe every child deserves to feel supported, encouraged, and confident. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or keeping little ones entertained while following routines, I’m dependable, responsible, and always bring a sense of humor along with me

Haley $30 per hour for 1 child

I am a compassionate young woman with over 10 years of diverse experience in childcare. As a teenager, I was the nanny to 3 neighboring families for 5 years. I grew very close with all of the kids and still keep in touch with them today. I view children as complex emotional beings and take the encouragement of their confidence and belief in themselves very seriously. I feel a natural ability to remain attuned to their needs, moods, and strengths and enjoying bringing creativity and joy into their lives through caregiving. Beyond traditional nanny experience, I have extensive experience teaching creative movement and dance techniques to children. I am also interested in assisting children in their educational development through homework help or in-home education, particularly in the humanities. I am tidy, organized, a good cook, and a punctual employee. I would love to meet you & provide references if you feel I would be a good fit for your family. Thank 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."

"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)."
