Katelynn $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Kate! I currently run my own business from home and I am looking to fill some extra time doing what I love most, which is caring for and nurturing children. I have spent over ten years working with kids of all ages, and it is something I am truly passionate about. I believe this next chapter in my life will be focused on supporting healthy development in children and helping families find calm and consistency during the sometimes chaotic stages of raising little ones. I am also getting ready to start a family of my own, so I look forward to learning and growing even more along the way. Most recently, I worked at SLOCA’s Wonders program as the assistant director, where I helped create a warm and playful environment that supported children emotionally, socially, and creatively. I bring a calm, grounded presence and a gentle, intuitive approach to caregiving that helps children feel safe, seen, and comfortable being themselves. I have a new 5-star safety rated vehicle and a clean driving record. I am Infant and Child CPR certified and have more than fifteen units of Early Childhood Education. I am also very comfortable caring for children with special needs or in situations that require flexibility and extra understanding. Cant wait to meet you and your family!!

Hannah $21 per hour for 1 child

I love being a caregiver to children, although this is the first time I am switching careers for it! I am able to play outside, get creative for playtime and problem solving, and I have boundless patience for homework help. I believe in treating children with kindness, even while disciplining them or declining their requests. I am happy to do additional tasks to help out the home, such as grocery shopping, housekeeping chores, and other errands! I hope to find a family that is a good fit for my skills :)

"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)."
