She was awesome. Took initiative, and helped support me and watch over my son during a small dinner event. She did everything I would have done and more. Served guests, cleared plates, checked in on me occasionally, cleaned up kitchen and dining, kept kiddo occupied. All with a cheerful disposition. We will continue to use her if she’s available.

My motto is lead with kindness providing a nurturing and caring environment and evolve to include taking the little ones to the library, playground, community activities and play dates. I focus on kids' learning, and try being a competent teacher, good at nonverbal children, being a good swimmer helping kids summer time. I make sure they meet and exceed all their mile stones. I teach appropriate social behaviors, such as being respectful to others planning age appropriate activities, being passionate to contribute positively to children’s lives while working. I love to keep kids learning, laughing and active. I am familiar with basic safety protocol with toddlers and infants. I am comfortable administering basic first aid. Looking forward to hearing from you when convenient. Regards! Aysen

Aysen was great, this was our first time leaving our son with a new sitter while we went out and she made me feel right at ease, immediately connecting with him and listening to all my information and asking questions. Highly recommend and will definitely be working with again in the future!

Duangkamon $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Washington Navy Yard, DC

Hello, I’m Pui. My full name is Duangkamon and I have 18 years of experience being a nanny since 2009 in the States. I have a CPR certificate by the American Heart Association. I live in Silver Spring, MD. I have experience taking care of children from infancy to teenage age. I first started to come to the United States of America as an Aupair. I worked with a family in Maryland. I have a good relationship with them. In 2009 I took care of 3 months old infant and 10 years old girls. Then my contract was overed in January of 2010, but in 2011 the family had a new baby, so the family contacted me back asking me to help her taking care of an infant baby for 2 -3 days a week. I also took care of a newborn infant since 7 week for a summer job back in 2012 toward the end the family asked me to move to Atlanta with them for good, but I was in school so I could not move in. I offered them to help them around in Atlanta for one month since the baby just born in May 2012. Then I started to be an after school babysitter for a 5 years old boy who was about to become 6 years old. I worked with this family until March 2020. He turned 13 this year. I moved to Seattle on August, 2020 and I live in Silver Spring, MD now. I can drive to your house and willing to drive your children in my car or your cars. Recently I graduate LPN program form Anne Arundel Community College on May 2025. I already pass the boarding exam and I am also a licensed LPN. I hope to have a chance to get an interview with you. Thank you.

"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)."
