I have 11 years of solid experience caring for children ages 0-17. I have learned the importance of providing children structure through my years of nannying and caretaking. In addition, I have hands-on experience nannying multiple infants and toddlers at a time. I am 100% comfortable providing adequate structure, age appropriate interaction and activities, safe play, healthy eating and resting. I have worked with students who have IEP's during the day, as well as taught at an elementary school in multiple after school programs, and provided therapy for children with autism. I have taught classes such as dance, painting, drawing, STEM/STEAM, and an academic excellence class. I have taught these classes for children in pre-school up to fifth grade. I recently was a preschool teacher at a Montessori school and have a daughter as well. She is a 6 year old.

Hi I’m Lisa! I haven’t had a lot of child care experience, but I am responsible, nurturing, and intuitive with kids. I’m a crafty person and would love to engage kids with art and crafts if it permits! I also love animals. I enjoy hikes so I can easily take care of dogs. I have two cats of my own so I am also great with cats. Cleaning, laundry, cooking, and other household tasks are not a problem. Please feel free to ask me any questions.

Hey there!! My name is Kaia and I’m currently a rising senior at the University of Alabama. I’m home for the summer and I’m offering help with childcare! I’ve always loved working with kids and have several years of experience babysitting/nannying children of various ages. I can drive to/from summer school, tutoring, and even just having fun during the summer! I’m very flexible this summer and have my own child friendly car to commute to and from wherever needed! I’m responsible, upbeat, and committed to providing a safe and engaging environment.

Hello! I am a 47-year-old career Nanny with 15+years of experience and a single Mom to a wonderful 16-year-old. My current contract ends the beginning of October so I am open to a new position starting mid October. I nanny for two babies(now toddlers) full time. They are part of a nanny share set up and I am hoping to find that same position again. Being a Nanny genuinely brings me so much joy and fulfillment and I strive to make you babies feel safe and loved under my care. I'm lucky to say that I love my job and don't dread going to work. As a mom, I understand the importance of providing gentle, safe and nurturing care to others children. I care for them like I would my own. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hey Families! I'm Lu, I started working with kids since I was 18 years old. Since 2019 I've been working full time with three boys. A little bit about me: - I started working with kids because I volunteered for a non-profit in my home country. - I'm a loving person with kids. My goal is they feel comfortable, safe and happy with me. - The last six years working with kids different ages have brought me the experience to help kids to manage their emotions. - I like to read. - I'm passionate about Design. - I love coffee. - I love dogs. Thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope we can meet soon. *I’m new looking for a job here but I can share with you my recommendations*

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
