Emily $15 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Emily, I'm 19 years old and I'm from México. I am currently in my third semester of college where I am studying psychology. I like reading, cycling, listening to music, and spending time with my family. I consider myself an introverted and very responsible person. I also consider that my qualities are being a loving, nurturing, patient and reliable person. Since I became an aunt I discovered how much I like children, I really enjoy spending time with them. I have the most experience with babies from 0 to 1 years old because I have been taking care of my nephew since then, I know how to feed them, put them to sleep, change diapers and play with them. I don't have much experience with older children, but I have many cousins ​​whom I have taken care of. I really like playing with them because I like how they explore and their way of seeing the world. I am very creative so I know how to distract children while enhancing their learning. Also, my first language is Spanish so I can be a Spanish tutor. When it comes to pet care, I have more experience with dogs because I've never had any other type of pet. I could take them for walks and feed them. I'm also good at cleaning, I'm very organized, I can help washing dishes, sweeping and vacuuming. I am looking for a loving family to support and would be very grateful if you would give me the opportunity to be part of the growth of your loved ones. Thank you for your consideration!

Natalie $20 per hour for 1 child

I have had a passion for taking care of children since my family adopted my four nieces and nephews (ages 2-12) when I was a freshman in high school. During my four years in high school, I spent a few hours per week being responsible for their care without parental oversight. I have also taken care of them for 2-week periods while my parents were out of town six times since high school. As such, I know how to take care of multiple children at once while also managing household tasks. I recently worked at Behavioral Health 360 in the role of behavior interventionist, providing one-on-one ABA therapy for children with autism. This role taught me how to handle various kinds of problem behaviors in a calm, effective and science-backed manner. I also learned how to have endless patience and empathy for any child. Additionally, my sister recently had a baby, and I have been nannying for her for the past year. I feel comfortable with children of any age. I am also happy to take care of pets in addition to children; I have had cats and dogs since I was a child and have frequently pet sat for family friends. I also have a pet snake named Penelope, so I am comfortable with reptiles. Finally, I am a Davis native but have a bachelor's degree from UC Santa Barbara after double majoring in Sociology and Philosophy. I am an intermediate level Spanish speaker and have experience helping kids with homework.

"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."

"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)."
