Danielle $50 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Danielle, a professional nanny with over 13 years of experience caring for children from 3 months through the early school years. I take a Montessori-inspired approach, which for me means following a child's curiosity, building steady routines, and getting outside as much as possible. I love the everyday things: sensory play, messy art, reading the same book fourteen times in a row. I'm CPR and Pediatric First Aid certified, TrustLine registered, and I hold a B.S. in Psychology. I'm looking for a long-term family where I can be a consistent, warm presence in your children's lives. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, studying languages, reading, and writing fiction.

Brenda $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Brenda. I am a career nanny with over 20 years of experience caring for children from newborns through school age. I have worked with twins, multiples, nanny shares, and families with up to four children. I also spent five years as a Pre-K teacher, which strengthened my knowledge of early childhood development and my ability to create a structured, nurturing environment where children thrive. I value building strong, trusting relationships with families and pride myself on being dependable, patient, and professional. I am currently seeking a full-time or part-time position and would be happy to share my résumé upon request. I look forward to connecting.

Hi! I'm Vanessa. I recently completed my Early Childhood Education program and have experience working with both preschool and school-age children. I love creating a fun, safe, and caring environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. Outside of work, I also help care for my three nephews, so being around children has always been a big part of my life. I genuinely enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and have fun!

"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)."
