Adai $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Adai. I love working with kids and am currently going to school to become a teacher because helping children learn and grow has always been my passion. I already have college credits toward my education and enjoy gaining more experience with children whenever I can. I have several years of experience working with kids through my church, where I’ve helped supervise activities, teach lessons, and create a safe, fun environment. I also helped care for my niece starting when she was 8 months old, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, diaper changes, playtime, naps, and bedtime routines. I’m patient, responsible, dependable, and caring, and I always make sure children feel safe, supported, and happy. I enjoy reading stories, doing crafts, playing games, and encouraging learning through fun activities. I would love the opportunity to care for your family and build a trusting relationship with you and your children’s!

Liliana $35 per hour for 1 child

As a dedicated and experienced Newborn and Childcare Specialist, I am passionate about providing exceptional care for newborns and young children, with a strong focus on their health, safety, and overall well-being. I hold an Associate Degree in Child Development, which gives me a solid foundation in early childhood growth and developmental milestones. In addition, I have experience working as a preschool teacher in a Spanish immersion program, where I supported early learning and language development in a nurturing and engaging environment. I am skilled in creating nurturing and stimulating environments that promote healthy development, while maintaining structured routines tailored to each child’s individual needs. With hands-on experience in feeding, and age-appropriate care, I support both children and their families with reliability, patience, and compassion.

Razan $25 per hour for 1 child

👋 Hi families, My name is Razan. I’m 28 years old, married and have a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice. I’m currently pursuing a graduate certificate in Human Behavior and Development which continues to strengthen my understanding of how people learn and grow at every stage of life. I’m looking for babysitting work to help pay off my tuition while doing something meaningful that I genuinely enjoy. I’m patient, reliable, and naturally nurturing with hands-on experience in child, senior, and pet care. Caring for people has always been a meaningful part of my life, and it’s something I take pride in doing well. On a personal note, I lost my mother at the age of 10, and that experience shaped the kind of caregiver I am today. I look forward to becoming a mother myself one day, because I truly enjoy giving children the warmth, attention, and support every child deserves. 🧚‍♀️Child Care Experience: I have been caring for children since I was young. I started with my two little sisters from the time they were infants until they were around 9 years old. I’ve also always been the person my family trusts whenever someone needs help with their children. I enjoy helping children feel calm, safe, and attended to. 🫂Senior Care Experience: My experience with senior care comes primarily from caring for my grandmother. I helped her with her doctor appointments, medication reminders, meal support, companionship, and household chores. I’m very patient, attentive, and respectful, and I enjoy senior care because it reminds me of the bond and love I share with her. 🐾Pet Care Experience: My husband and I have two dogs, so I’m very comfortable with pets of all sizes. I can help with walking, feeding, playtime, and pet-sitting. Animals tend to feel comfortable around me, and I love making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. 💕What Families Appreciate About Me: Families tell me they appreciate my understanding nature, flexibility, honesty, and kindness. I’m someone who adjusts easily to routines, communicates clearly, and stays calm in stressful or busy situations. I treat every family with respect and every person, child, senior, or pet with genuine care. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, reliable, and committed to helping, I would be happy to help. Feel free to reach out with any questions!

"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)."
