Zoe $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Zoe and I am so excited to continue my 15 years of caregiving here on urban sitter. I absolutely love kids and bringing my playful, kind, and determined energy & influence around them - and learning back from them in return! I also have a background in Special Needs care and counseling as far back as high school and it is one of the fondest highlights of my life. My other experience caring for seniors with many different ailments, including Alzheimer's, is something I hold very near and dear to my heart. Taking the time to relate to, connect with, and understand people of all different personalities and needs is one of the most rewarding things I do in life, and I plan to do it forever! Additionally, I have had four different dogs since childhood and have been caring for all animals, ranging from dogs and cats, to fish, bunnies, snakes, and more, as a profession for at least a decade. This has come in the form of overnight stays, feeding, walking, administering medications, and beyond. I am currently in school achieving my Doctorate degree in Acupuncture & Chinese Herbal Medicine, and am eager to open a practice of my own once I am board certified. This has become one of my greatest passions in life, and I love that I am developing and already practicing my skills and abilities to change peoples' lives and health for the better in so many extraordinary ways. I look forward to meeting you, and can't wait to learn more about your interests and needs!

Alexis $24 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! I’m looking for a part-time babysitting role and would love to find a local family to support. I’ve spent over 5 years caring for children of all ages including newborns, twins, and kiddos with autism. I truly enjoy creating a space where kids feel safe and understood. My background is a little different than your average sitter. I’ve spent the last decade in the medical and behavioral health fields, including time as an ER Unit Secretary and a Behavioral Health Care Coordinator. If there’s one thing those roles taught me, it’s how to keep a completely level head during chaos. Whether it’s a medical emergency or a high-energy afternoon with multiple kids. I’m used to thinking clearly under pressure and staying calm when things get busy. A few quick details about me: Flexible Schedule: I’m a full-time student, but because my program is 100% virtual, I can easily work my studies around your family’s needs. I don’t have rigid "in-class" times to worry about! Behavioral Expertise: I have experience supporting children with higher-level emotional and sensory needs, always with patience and respect for their unique personalities. Reliable & Steady: I’m looking for a consistent weekday routine where I can become a dependable part of your family’s "team." Rates are flexible depending on the number of children and the level of care needed. I’m happy to chat about what works best for you. If you’re looking for someone experienced, calm under pressure, and genuinely supportive, I’d love to connect!"

María $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m Laura , a 30-year-old nanny with 9+ years of childcare experience, from newborns to teenagers. Families describe me as loving, reliable, and calm under pressure. I specialize in infant and toddler care, with hands-on experience supporting milestones like crawling, walking, and transitioning to solids. I recently spent 1.6 years with a wonderful family, helping care for their daughter from 3 months old until she started daycare. I’ve also worked with twins, supported families practicing 0 screen time, and adapted to busy household schedules with professionalism and care. Fluent in Spanish (native) and advanced in English, I bring a warm, multicultural touch to childcare—whether through songs, stories, or playful learning.

Brisa $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello- my name is Brisa. I am 19 ! I currently finished my Medical Assistant program ! I have experience with baby sitting my nephews and my niece. My nephews are 7 years old and a 3 year old. My niece is 7 years old. I love taking care of them. Cooking for them and cleaning up. It’s the best thing I could ask for. I love taking care of them I want to experience this with other kids ! I enjoy coloring and reading books with kids. Playing with toys. Just enjoying the moment ! I have experience cleaning houses. When I was younger my mom took me to clean houses with her. I currently help her clean houses here and there. I help her with cleaning the bathroom, fold laundry, sometimes reorganizing bedrooms. I would prefer cleaning with the supplies one already has just because everyone has a different preference. Translated to Spanish Hola, me llamo Brisa.

Me encanta cuidarlos, cocinar para ellos y limpiar. Es lo mejor que me puede pasar. Disfruto mucho cuidándolos y me gustaría tener esta experiencia con otros niños. Tengo un gato que se llama Aphelfa. Me gusta colorear y leer libros con los niños, jugar con juguetes y simplemente disfrutar del momento. Tengo experiencia limpiando casas. Cuando era más joven, mi mamá me llevaba a limpiar casas con ella. Actualmente la ayudo de vez en cuando. La ayudo a limpiar el baño, a doblar la ropa y a veces a reorganizar las habitaciones. Prefiero usar los productos de limpieza que ya se tengan en casa, ya que cada persona tiene sus preferencias.

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
