Hi, I’m Sharyce! I’m a certified CNA and a licensed cosmetologist with a deep passion for caring for others. I’m a proud wife and mother to three wonderful children, and we share our home with our dog, Xeno, and a tortoise named Squirtle. I’ve been surrounded by children my entire life and have been caring for them since I was 12 years old. Whether it’s children, pets, or the elderly, caregiving is truly my calling. I’ve been working as a CNA for nearly two years now and absolutely love what I do. I’m a naturally creative, patient, and loving person, and I always bring those qualities into the care I provide. Helping others brings me joy, and I’m committed to making a positive impact in every life I touch.

Shes been a wonderful addition to our family!

Hello! I’m Samari, an 18-year-old dual-enrolled student with experience in childcare, household tasks, and pet care. Prices is not set and is negotiated by the hr :) I enjoy working with children and aim to pursue a career in this field. Since age 13, I’ve been caring for children from 3 months old to older, handling tasks like school pickup, tutoring, playing, and caring for their daily needs and early development, whether with or without parents present (like during work or errands). I also provide household help, including cooking, cleaning, and running errands (I have a driver’s license). If you have pets, I’d Also be happy to help care for them. I understand that parents often have strict schedules for their children, and I am committed to following them diligently. My current and past experience: ————————————————————- • Since early summer, I’ve been working at a childcare play center. • I attend COC for my Child Development and Education degree and the Hart District school for my diploma. • I have babysat multiple toddlers simultaneously on several occasions.

Samari was very professional and i look forward to working with her again. My son did not want her to leave! He has an amazing time during her care.

Hi, my name is Sony and I love children. I moved out to LA from NY for acting. I’m offering child care, dog care, senior care, running errands and household services. I’ve worked with kids of all ages from 1 yrs old and older. Currently babysit for a few families. I’ve helped raise all of my little cousins and nieces (twins) from birth until they were teenagers. I would feed them, play with them, drop off/pick up from school, and put them to sleep. I started doing this when I was 10 yrs old. At 13 yrs old I started babysitting the neighbors kids that were 1 and 3 yrs old. I also worked at a daycare in NY taking care of 1 to 2.5 year olds. I was a nanny for a family in Los Angeles that had 2 kids that were 4 and 7. I made them dinner, gave them baths, cleaned up after them and put them to sleep. Children naturally love me. I’m very personable, empathetic, compassionate and fun. I am comfortable with senior care and dog care. I’ve taken care of my grandparents and friends of family that were seniors. I’ve house and dog sat for friends and family as well. I can also work as a household assistant. I’m open to doing other tasks as well since I have personal assistant experience.

We love Sony! She was with our family consistently for 1.5 years, until our girls started school full time. She is timely, communicative, creative, and trustworthy. There is no one my girls like to ply with more.

"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)."
