Oshelyn $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Oshelyn(Oshie), and I’m a reliable, caring, and experienced babysitter with over 8 years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve spent much of my life helping care for children of all ages, from infants to older kids, which has given me a strong understanding of their different needs, routines, and personalities. I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and engaged. In addition to supervising and playing with children, I’m confident in handling a wide range of responsibilities. I can prepare meals and snacks, assist with homework, manage bedtime routines, administer medication when needed, and keep the home tidy. I also have experience caring for pets, so I’m happy to help with feeding or light pet care if needed. I take pride in being attentive, patient, and dependable, making sure both children and parents feel at ease. I’m passionate about providing trustworthy care and building positive relationships with families. My goal is always to support your household by ensuring your children are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience and dedication to your family.

"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)."
