Angie 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m Angely, and I’ve been a babysitter for 8 years. I’m passionate, creative, and committed to making meaningful connections with children. I love music, I sing and play the piano, I believe I have unique things to offer each child I care for. As a native Spanish speaker, I bring an additional cultural and language experience to share, and I enjoy teaching piano and encouraging creativity in every child.

Angie was wonderful with my son. She's engaging, genuinely sweet with him, and I trusted her right away. She even cleaned up before she left, which I didn't ask her to do. She's now on my short list of people I call first when I need a sitter.

I prioritize arts and active play, with minimal to no television (except when necessary to soothe children). I teach kids yoga, and I like to teach them about nutritious food which improves their mood. I have 38 years experience caring for kids and I'm a mom myself. I'm an Ivy league graduate who specializes in child development and conflict resolution.

Michele was great! She was very nice and great with my kids! Will definitely be using her again.

Hello! My name is Cameron. I moved out here from Boston a few years ago and am excited to meet your family! Previously, I studied music therapy at Berklee College of Music before coming here to pursue music. I am offering child care, senior care, and pet care. During my music therapy studies, I focused on helping children with communication and social skills, and seniors with cognitive ability and memory care. I’m passionate about helping people of all ages express themselves and learn. I’ve been babysitting for various families in my hometown since my early teens, and love spending time with children. My responsibilities included driving kids to and from school, performing household duties, tutoring (any subject but math 😅), crafts, and music lessons. I have also taken care of my grandparents and great grandparents and feel very comfortable around seniors. Before she passed, I loved playing jazz songs for my great grandma and listening to stories from her past. I also have a dog and multiple cats, and would be happy to help you with any pet related needs. Please reach out if you feel that I would be a good fit for your family. I’m wishing you luck on your hunt for a caregiver!

My 5 year old son had a great time playing with Cameron! Lots of fun imaginative play.

"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

"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)."
