Karla $34 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Karla, and I have over 15 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns and infants to toddlers and school-aged children. I’ve worked with families long-term, cared for multiple children at once, and have experience with school drop-offs and pickups, date nights, overnight care, and full-day childcare. I truly love working with children and believe every day is an opportunity to help them learn, grow, and have fun. I enjoy arts and crafts, outdoor activities, reading, games, and encouraging creativity while providing a safe, loving, and structured environment. I strive to build meaningful relationships with the children I care for and treat every family with kindness, patience, and respect. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to prepare healthy meals, cook dinner, help with homework, assist with bedtime routines, keep play areas organized, wash dishes, and clean up after activities so parents can come home to a tidy house. I am CPR certified and have a medical background as a former Pediatric Medical Assistant. I also completed EMT training, which has given me valuable experience in child safety, emergency response, and compassionate care. Beyond childcare, I also provide senior companionship, household assistance and animal care. I’m happy to help with meal preparation, light housekeeping, errands, transportation to appointments, medication reminders, and providing dependable, caring companionship. I currently work with a nonprofit organization helping individuals and families, which has strengthened my communication skills, patience, and commitment to serving others. I take pride in being dependable, trustworthy, organized, and caring. My goal is always to provide families with peace of mind while creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment for their loved ones. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming someone you can trust and rely on. Thank you for considering me!

Kuralay $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I am Kuralay and I’m 26! I’ve been around kids my all life but I began working professionally 8 years ago as a part-time babysitter, then early child educator, then au pair and now a nanny/babysitter. Throughout these 8 years, I’ve been responsible for many different things, such as active playing, indoor-outdoor activities, meal preparations, cooking, cleaning, laundry, bath time, bed time, teaching languages (English, Kazakh, Russian, Spanish), tutoring (math, sciences), art lessons (drawing, sewing, papercrafts, embroidery, clay art, many more), swimming lessons, international traveling assistance and many more. I am skilled in many things and can cater to the family’s specific needs. Children, whom I got the honor of getting to know, often grew up to be diverse, having interests in reading, drawing, photography, sewing and being creative in general. I view every child as a unique individual and feel always honored to be a part of their life when they are gaining their first impressions of this big beautiful life. My main “talent” is my sincere and attentive care for each and every child I take care of (I still keep in touch with a lot of kids I have previously cared). I love encouraging a child’s natural curiosity. And I believe that everything in a child’s development is connected - when a child feels emotionally secure, it supports physical growth and cognitive development, and each area strengthens the others in return. Because of this, I try to create an environment where children feel safe, curious, and inspired to grow. When it comes to professionalism, I am responsible, reliable, organized and punctual. Managing multiple other commitments, I know to respect others’ time. Respect, honesty, and kindness is what I carry and expect in return.

"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."

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)."
