Catherine $18 per hour for 1 child

I'm originally native to Fort Lauderdale, FL, where I lived with my single mother. She's been a teacher for 18 years now, having taught and looked after children as young as newborns and as old as middle school. This naturally transitioned into caring for these children outside of school hours - and when she acquired a second job, she passed these babysitting and tutoring opportunities on to me, whom the parents had come to know and trust. All throughout my teens I've cared for and tutored a revolving door of children of all ages. As soon as I entered high-school, I began to work for summer and winter camps as a co-counselor, loving the trips and the events and how every day felt like an adventure. I then graduated high-school and moved to New Haven, CT to pursue my scientific passions at Yale University, where I majored in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology. It was at Yale that I discovered a deep love of medicine, and more than that, of helping people and seeing the change one person can make in the life of another. On my summers off, though, I continued to assume the role of a mentor and counselor during Yale Summer Session, becoming a resource for students both younger and older than myself. I've worked and volunteered in many positions relating to science, healthcare, and wellness, all with the goal of one day entering the field of medicine. I've helped treat and educate patients of all ages, old and young, working to make healthcare and medical services available to all. Having recently graduated, I'm now working towards becoming certified as a CNA and EMT, so that I might explore the extremely diverse roles in healthcare, and gain a better understanding of what kind of role I'd like to eventually pursue. In my training for both, I've done many clinical rotations in both nursing homes and ambulances, getting a hands-on feel for both day-to-day care and emergency situations - skills that have translated well into caring for others.

$35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 11 families in East Haven, CT

I’m a patient person. I enjoy being surrounded by kids. I have 6 years experience in the field. I believe children are the most beautiful gift someone can ever receive. I like to educate my littles pumpkins, what’s better than taking good care and educate them at the same time. I’m bilingual Spanish-English and I’m always open to teaching them my native language which is Spanish if the parents are comfortable with it. Feel free to contact me at any time.

“Jioelenny was fantastic! We knew the instant that she showed up that our daughter would be comfortable with her. Jioelenny got right down to her level and greeted her, and our daughter seemed so happy and excited. Jioelenny has a lot of experience as a full-time Nanny and this definitely showed. ”

Adeline $18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in East Haven, CT

Growing up religious, church provided endless opportunities in childcare and service for the elderly, which I took advantage of since I very much enjoy working with people of all ages! When I was not busy with dance as a pre-professionally trained dancer, I would dedicate my time to tutoring elementary students, babysitting infants, toddlers, and/or kids in their early adolescent years. For the past few years, I have been assisting my grandfather to distribute religious services to the elderly. I am an exceptionally communicative, energetic, nurturing, and empathetic worker, student, and person overall. I am naturally passionate for caring for kids, seniors, and/or animals in need of company and aid!

"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)."
