Rory $25 per hour for 1 child

I bring over 20 years of experience supporting seniors, and it remains one of the most meaningful parts of my life. I’ve cared for adults ages 65 to 95, including those managing chronic conditions and individuals with MS during flare periods. My support has included meal preparation, companionship, organizing the home, medication reminders, maintaining schedules, transportation, and doctor visits. I’m also experienced in coordinating outside care when a family needs additional support. I’ve provided occasional overnights as well. Families describe me as calm, reliable, and someone who brings dignity and steadiness to the home. In addition to senior care, I have two decades of experience supporting adults with disabilities. My approach is patient, respectful, and focused on helping people stay as independent as possible while providing safety, structure, and encouragement. I also care for pets. I’ve supported dog and cat owners when they are out of town or unavailable for a full day—sometimes for up to three days. This includes feeding, walks, litter care, and companionship. I also have long-term experience caring for children. My earliest childcare was with infants in the late ’90s, followed by four years volunteering with toddlers in Sunday school and three and a half years of every-other-weekend care for young children. I have additional experience with kids ages 9–12, helping with routines, homework, and creative activities. Families appreciate that I am warm, organized, easy to work with, and a grounding presence across all ages and needs.

Chamiyah $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m currently a freshman in college. I have been working for care.com for the past 6 months and I heard a lot of good reviews about urban sitter so I want to give it a try. I’m the second oldest and I have helped take care of all my younger siblings while my parents were at work as well. I know how to cook, make baby bottles, change diapers, burp, and entertain children. I have great patience. I’ve always wanted to be in the medical field. specifically for a neonatologist or pediatrician. My youngest sister has autism and I’ve taken classes with my mother to find out different ways to help and benefit her in anyway possible. I can say I have experience with autism children as well.

Hi! My name is Kathy, and I’m a college student offering childcare, senior care, pet care, and household assistance. I’ve been caring for children since I was 14, including my three younger siblings and family friends’ children. Through my pediatric clinical experience, I’ve also gained hands-on experience caring for children with special needs. Additionally, I have experience caring for seniors, including my grandmother, as well as dogs and cats. I can help with activities, tutoring, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and daily caregiving needs. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive, and I genuinely enjoy helping others feel safe and cared for. I’d love the opportunity to support your family. Please feel free to reach out!

Aurora Gabrielle $40 per hour for 1 child

I am an artist, ceramicist, art therapist, teacher and therapeutic arts facilitator. I create spaces for people to slow down, make things with their hands, reconnect with their bodies, and remember their relationship to the natural world. I have worked in a diversity of settings with children for over 10 years. First as a nanny, then a teacher, and now as a therapist. I care deeply about nurturing children's social and emotional development and well being. I am particularly good at encouraging kids to feel safe and confident to creatively express themselves.

"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)."
