Maleigha $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m a caring and dependable nanny with a lot of real-life experience. I helped raise my younger brother, so I’m very comfortable with daily routines, keeping kids entertained, and creating a safe, loving environment. I also worked for a nanny agency in 2019, where I looked after kids of different ages and helped families with whatever they needed day-to-day. I grew up super athletic and stayed active as a young adult, so I love getting kids moving—playing outside, doing simple sports, or just finding fun ways to burn energy. Overall, I’m easygoing, reliable, and I genuinely enjoy being around kids and making them feel comfortable and cared for.

Hi families. My name is Zoe and I am a loving and patient caregiver with real experience as a mom.

Nishae $32 per hour for 1 child

For eight years, I have had the privilege of assisting families as a nanny for children from infancy through adolescence. I was previously with a family of 6 children, all under age 6, which included a set of twins on the autism spectrum. Every day was an adventure but it was the most rewarding experience so this just might be my calling. I am patient, creative, and innovative. I am just as comfortable with newborns as I am with teenagers. For newborns and infants, I am very experienced with implementing a sleeping and eating schedule, introducing solids, toilet training, and meeting milestones. For children, I enjoy introducing them to new sports and engaging activities such as baking and arts and crafts. I am able to assist with homework and tutoring using various methods, whether it be visual, auditory, or kinesthetic. I am a firm believer in positive communication and believe it is important to teach children how to communicate their emotions. I use emotion cards or simply have a conversation and after a rough day I most commonly introduce art or sound therapy. I am experienced caring for more than one child at a time and of all abilities. I am happy to help prepare snacks and cook meals, light housekeeping, and swimming supervision. I am First Aid, CPR, and AED trained. I believe in open communication and will always keep you informed about your child’s day, using your preferred method. Ultimately, I hope to create a fun and safe environment for children to thrive as well as being a great support system to parents.

"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)."
