Hi! I’m Diana — a licensed pedagogue with a Bachelor’s degree in Science of Education from Spain and over 8 years of experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I have worked as both a caregiver and a teacher, supporting children not only with daily care but also with learning, routines, emotional development, and tutoring when needed. I have experience with newborns at nightime and daytime as needed. Also experienced in sleep training and potty training. In the U.S., I have 2 years of preschool teaching experience, 1 year teaching high school, and I currently teach a combined Kindergarten–1st grade classroom. I’m patient, nurturing, organized, and very attentive to children’s individual needs. I also have experience with household support and helping during events, and I’m comfortable working with families in different settings. I speak English, Spanish, Russian, and Ukrainian, and I love creating a safe, calm, and engaging environment where children feel cared for and confident.

Diana is an amazing caregiver! She is more than a nanny, but a teacher! She really knows how to handle with kids, she is strongly prepared to take care of them. Diana has a large background in education and child development, I could see it on practice by the way that she takes care of my kids. Both my 2 and 4 year old love her, they have a lot of fun together and she always find a way to teach them. She can speak multiple languages, which is really helpful for us since Spanish is my first language and I really want to pass that to my kids. During the kid’s naps she do some light cleaning on the house and she also envolves the kids with the cleaning job after they are done playing with their toys. I would like to say that I strongly recommend Diana, she is the one who I always contact when I need someone to assist my kids. She will do an amazing job with your little ones too!!

Hello! My name is Bela, and I am a new college graduate, home for the summer looking for occasional babysitting/nannying &/or pet sitting opportunities! Whether it be watching your kiddos while you’re out for a date night, or keeping them busy during the day crafting, spending time outdoors, making them meals, or picking them up/dropping them off at Summer camps and daytime activities I’m open for it all! As I heads up, I have some days this summer where I will be out of town as I am moving out of state in the beginning of September! I have many years of experience babysitting and pet sitting and can provide references and a background check upon request. And as an avid animal lover (with 5 pets of my own and graduated with an Animal Science degree), I have also worked as a Veterinary Assistant for many years, so I also have a background caring for pets if they have any additional care requirements. Additionally, I am fluent in Bulgarian, and beginner-intermediate in American Sign Language. I love engaging with children in arts and crafts projects to keep them entertained with educational and fun activities that promote creativity, and spending time outdoors! In addition, I am also capable of preparing meals if necessary. My goal is to create a fun, and positive atmosphere where kids can have fun and feel as engaged as possible! Above all I prioritize the safety and well being of the children and animals that I care for. I look forward to the potential opportunity to meet your family! References can be provided upon request! 😊

Isabela is incredible with young children. She is highly educated and ambitious with great intuition and EQ. I would highly highly recommend Isabela 🙏

I’m a CPR-certified babysitter with years of experience caring for children of all ages. I’ve also worked as a swim coach, leading over 120 kids per season ranging from ages 3 to 18 — which taught me patience, creativity, and how to make learning fun and safe. I truly love working with kids (and dogs too!). I have a dog of my own, a sweet little Italian greyhound named Loki who happens to be deaf, so I’m very comfortable providing attentive and compassionate care for both children and pets.

Lia is great!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
