Olamide $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Olamide, currently a 3rd year at San Diego state. I’ve been babysitting since I was a child myself, it’s something I enjoyed and always volunteered myself for. As I got older, I made sort of a career out of it, charging for my services. I’ve worked with all ages ranging from new infants to elementary school kids. Whether it’s to help a new mom with baby chores/duties after giving birth, or watching the kids while they’re out, or light housecleaning, meal prep, etc, I do it all, and well at that! I have been told by all my clients that they’re always so grateful for my help and that’s something I’m extremely proud of! I would love to be of help in any way I can! Feel free to reach out!

"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)."
