Caitlynn $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Caitlynn and I work at an after school program right now with preschoolers and kindergartners! I love going to work and doing creative activities like arts and crafts, reading stories, and fun outdoor play. I have a great bond with them and would love to build more relationships. I have been watching infants since I was 15 and still do it on the side as well. I believe in building a trusting relationship with both kids and parents.

Angela $20 per hour for 1 child

Caring for others has always been more than a job to me—it’s a passion and a calling. From a very young age, I naturally stepped into caregiving roles by helping raise and care for younger children in my family. Those experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of creating a safe, loving environment where others can thrive. With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for children, seniors, pets, and supporting busy households, I’ve developed a well-rounded skill set that allows me to confidently adapt to each family’s unique needs. I am CPR certified and a Certified Personal Trainer, with experience caring for older adults, individuals with varying care needs, and children of different ages. Whether it’s preparing healthy meals, helping with homework, engaging children in fun and educational activities, maintaining a clean and organized home, providing companionship, or assisting with daily routines, I approach every responsibility with patience, kindness, and genuine care. As a proud dog owner myself, I understand that pets are cherished members of the family too. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and other pets, whether that means walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic care, or simply giving them the love and attention they deserve. Families often describe me as dependable, nurturing, trustworthy, calm under pressure, and easy to communicate with. I believe every child deserves to feel encouraged, every senior deserves dignity and compassion, every pet deserves love, and every family deserves peace of mind. My goal is to become someone you can truly rely on—someone who will care for your loved ones and your home with the same level of respect, attention, and dedication that I would give my own family. I would be honored to be a positive, dependable presence in your home and help make your everyday life a little easier.

Sherika 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

I have a Degree in Primary Education, an NCTVET HEART Certification in Early Childhood Education, and I am CPR and First Aid certified. With over a decade of experience as a teacher and as a professional nanny, I have cared for children of different ages and developmental stages, supporting their learning, routines, and growth in a safe and nurturing environment. Caregiving is my passion because I love building meaningful connections and creating spaces where children feel loved, encouraged, and confident. Outside of caregiving, I enjoy reading, crafting, and spending quality time with family, which I often incorporate into fun and engaging activities with the children I care for.

Sherika was extremely patient and caring with my boys. She is reliable (never cancels) and responsible. I finally found someone who is trustworthy. I think she will be our regular go to sitter anytime!

Esther $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Esther. I love being a sitter because I enjoy spending time with kids and helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and caring environment. I have a bubbly, positive personality and am kind, patient, reliable, and easy to get along with. I have experience working with children as a Behavior Technician, where I provide one on one support to children with behavioral and developmental needs. I help with learning, behavior, emotional regulation, communication, and daily routines. In addition to my professional experience, I’ve also babysat for several families, caring for children of different ages in their homes. I enjoy building positive relationships with both children and parents and making sure every family feels comfortable and supported. I’m patient, organized, creative, and a good communicator. I enjoy reading stories, playing games, doing arts and crafts, helping with homework, playing outdoors, and finding fun ways to keep kids engaged. My goal is to make sure every child feels safe, happy, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in good hands. I look forward to meeting your family!

Rita 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Rita, and I have over 15 years of experience working in child care, including extensive experience caring for toddlers and infants. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and develop confidence. Throughout my career, I have supported children's social, emotional, and developmental needs through age-appropriate activities, positive guidance, and strong communication with families. I am patient, reliable, and dedicated to helping each child reach their full potential while ensuring their well-being and happiness every day.

I highly recommend Rita as a babysitter and childcare provider. She helped care for my children for over 15 years, from infancy through their toddler years and beyond. During that time, she was consistently reliable, caring, patient, and attentive to their needs. She created a safe, nurturing, and positive environment for my children and treated them with kindness and respect. I always felt confident leaving my children in her care because she was dependable, responsible, and genuinely cared about their well-being and development. Her experience with infants, toddlers, and young children is exceptional, and she has a natural ability to connect with children of all ages. I am grateful for the care and support she provided to my family over the years, and I would not hesitate to recommend her to any family seeking a trustworthy and experienced babysitter.

"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)."
