Machandel $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi I'm Machandel (pronounced Ma-han-del). I've worked in childcare with kids of all ages, (two yr old room, four yr old room and K-5) but spent the most time being the lead teacher for the school-aged kids classroom at a daycare center (after school and all day during the summers). I also hold a certificate for completing a 45-hour childcare development course called "Early care, Education and family support”, and have been CPR certified in the past. More recently, I’ve extensively studied nervous system regulation and somatic practices which has given me gentle tools to help children stay calm, secure and feel emotionally supported. Im a huge animal lover and have a cat at home, but I grew up with dogs so I’m very comfortable interacting and caring for them as well. I love being outdoors, going on walks, playing board games and being creative. I’m looking for a consistent role (around 25+ hours/week) with 1-2 kids. I’m happy to help with homework, fix simple meals, plan art projects, run errands, care for pets, and tidy up after the kids. Please feel free to reach out if you think I'd be a good fit for your family. :) **45 hour course certification & letter of recommendation from childcare center available upon request**

Asia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Asia! I'm a natural caregiver with a background in early childhood working in Preschool for a few school years and a deep love for supporting kids' growth through play, nature, creativity, and routine. Over the past year, I've returned to nannying and tutoring and currently help families with school pick-ups, extracurricular drop-offs, homework help, and daily rhythms at home. You can usually find me outside with the kids, doing arts and crafts, reading together, or creating simple learning activities. I'm CPR + First Aid certified, comfortable with pets, and happy to assist with light housework, laundry, and meal prep. I aim to be a calm, reliable presence that kids feel safe and excited to be around.

"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)."
