Sharon $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi- my name is Sharon and I’m currently watching a six year old part time. I’ve been working with his family for about 5 years now. I am offering child care, senior care, pet care and household services. I love being a babysitter/nanny and have been watching children of all ages and babies pretty much my entire life. I am also a mother myself to an adult child. My responsibilities have included driving to and from school, crafts, tutoring, and even taking the child to lessons or practice. I can also assist around the house like running errands and lite cooking and cleaning. I have been a caretaker for my own parents and grandparents as well as other seniors, so I am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. I love animals so I’m happy to work with families with pets and care for pets as well!

"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)."
