Hello my name is Samantha but you can call me Sam. I’m currently a college student. I have been babysitting since I was 15, i started with my nieces and nephews and then with the kids of my mothers friends. I currently also work with kids now, as I am a boys and girls club employee. So I am cpr certified. My responsibilities are to help with homework, lead craft projects and teaching dance. I can also run errands, drive from/to places, clean, and cook as well. I’m also good with both dogs and cats, so i don’t mind working in an environment with pets.

Tyeronae $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’ve been working with kids for over 10 years and am CPR and First-Aid certified, with my own reliable transportation. I’m patient, easygoing, and love keeping kids entertained whether it’s reading books, doing crafts, or just being silly together. When I’m not babysitting, I’m usually on the rails, hanging out at the library, or volunteering with kids’ academic programs during the summer. My schedule can vary since I have a fulltime job, but I always do my best to be flexible for the right family!

Kaitlin $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Kaitlin, a proud mom to a 1-year-old little boy. Being a parent has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to create a safe, loving environment where children can learn and grow. I'm experienced with diaper changes, feeding, naps, playtime, and keeping little ones engaged through age-appropriate activities. I understand how important it is for parents to trust the person caring for their child, and I strive to provide dependable, compassionate care. I have reliable transportation and would love the opportunity to support your family. I'm looking for a job that is long-term, rewarding, and gives me the opportunity to build a trusting relationship with a family. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my son, going to the park, taking walks, trying new places, and watching movies. I also enjoy creative activities and making fun memories with family and friends.

"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)."
