Savannah $22 per hour for 1 child

I am currently working in an office with 14 others. It was a good job to get me through school but I am looking to leave this month and am looking for a wonderful job with a wonderful kid or a couple of kids. I’ve been caring for children since I was 12, alongside school and other jobs. As the oldest of three, I’ve always had a natural sense of responsibility and loved being around little ones. I started babysitting regularly when my younger sister was born, caring for her and another baby of the same age at the same time for several years. I also cared for a one-year-old for about four years on and off, along with babysitting for several other families. I’m patient, loving, calm, and dependable, while also being comfortable setting boundaries when needed. I’ve cared for energetic, adventurous, and strong-willed children and enjoy finding activities that keep them engaged without relying heavily on screen time. I especially enjoy cooking and baking with kids, going on walks, swimming, painting, drawing, and spending time outdoors. I’m also confident with bedtime routines and helping children settle into a consistent schedule, while understanding that some children need time to feel comfortable with a new caregiver. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy being a child’s buddy and creating a safe, happy environment where they can have fun, explore, and feel cared for.

"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

"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)."
