Gaby $24 per hour for 1 child

**CPR/FIRST AID Certified** Hi there! I'm Gabby, a passionate and dedicated caregiver with 10+ years of experience in babysitting. I believe that every child is unique, and I strive to create a nurturing environment where they can thrive and explore their creativity. I enjoy engaging kids in fun activities, from arts and crafts to outdoor adventures, all while ensuring their safety and well-being. Cooking is one of my favorite hobbies, and I love preparing healthy, delicious meals that kids actually enjoy! Whether it's whipping up colorful snacks or teaching them simple recipes, I believe that cooking can be a fun and educational experience. As an animal lover, I'm more than happy to care for pets as well. I understand that pets are part of the family, and I can provide companionship, walks, and care for your furry friends while you're away. I'm happy to assist with children's housework, such as tidying up play areas and cleaning up after meals. For any additional housework beyond that, I would charge a fee, which can be discussed based on your needs. I'm a firm believer in open communication with parents, and I'll keep you updated on your child's day and any fun stories to share when you return home. With my own car, transportation is not an issue! I'm looking forward to meeting your family and making unforgettable memories together, while ensuring a safe and joyful experience for everyone.

Karen $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a reliable and easygoing babysitter who really enjoys working with kids. I’m currently a student, and that’s helped me become super organized, patient, and good at communicating things I bring into babysitting every day. I have about 2 years of experience caring for children of different ages. I’ve helped with things like homework, meals, bedtime routines, and keeping kids entertained with fun activities. I’m also happy to help out around the house when needed to make things easier for parents. I love caregiving because I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and getting to know their personalities. It’s really rewarding to be someone they feel comfortable with while also helping them learn and have fun. A little about me: I’m patient, creative, and dependable. I love doing things like arts and crafts, playing games, or just finding fun ways to keep kids engaged. Families can count on me to be responsible, positive, and easy to work with!

Angela $32 per hour for 1 child

Hello, My name is Angela, and I am looking for a full-time, long-term position caring for a family. I am available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., with occasional availability for overnights. I have over 10 years of experience as a nanny, caring for children of all ages—from newborns and up. I am CPR and First Aid certified, a non-smoker, fully vaccinated, and have a clean driving record with my own reliable transportation. I also come with excellent references. My responsibilities can include light housekeeping, children’s laundry, preparing healthy meals and snacks, scheduling playdates, organizing outdoor activities and arts and crafts, assisting with bedtime routines, party planning, school drop-offs and pick-ups, and running family errands. When caring for newborns, I have experience with diaper changes, bottle feeding, establishing nap routines, potty training, baby-led weaning, and supporting developmental milestones. I enjoy taking children to engaging activities such as the library, music and art classes, parks, and both indoor and outdoor play spaces. I also incorporate Montessori-inspired values into my care whenever possible. I bring warmth, reliability, and a strong work ethic to every family I support. As a mother of two grown boys, I understand the importance of providing both structure and a nurturing environment in a child’s life. I know firsthand what to expect at each stage of development and take pride in being loving, patient, and proactive. I also believe in maintaining open communication with parents so that routines are consistent, and families never miss out on the special moments in their children’s growth.

"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)."
