Anastacia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Anastacia, a proud mother who believes every child deserves to feel safe, seen, and genuinely cared for. I understand the trust it takes to welcome someone into your home, and I strive to become a dependable extension of your family. My caregiving style is calm, patient, and engaging. I encourage learning through play, creativity, reading, outdoor exploration, and meaningful connection while maintaining routines that help children feel secure. I enjoy preparing healthy meals and snacks, keeping children's spaces organized, and creating a peaceful environment where they can thrive. As I continue my education in birth work and massage therapy, my passion remains the same: supporting families with compassionate, dependable care. I'm playful, solution-oriented, and deeply committed to every family I work with. I believe childhood should be filled with curiosity, kindness, and the freedom to simply be a child, and I'd be honored to care for yours.

Erine $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Erine. I am a caring, responsible, and positive person who loves helping others and creating a safe, comfortable environment for children. I am originally from France and currently live in South Florida. I enjoy meeting new people, learning about different cultures, and building meaningful connections with families. I have a naturally patient and nurturing personality. I understand that every child is unique and that they need attention, kindness, encouragement, and someone they can feel comfortable around. My goal as a babysitter is to make children feel safe while also creating fun and engaging moments through activities, conversations, creativity, and learning. I am organized, reliable, and take my responsibilities seriously. I understand the importance of parents trusting the person who takes care of their children, and I always make sure to respect family routines, instructions, and each child’s individual needs. Being bilingual in French and English allows me to communicate with families from different backgrounds. I can also help children practice French in a fun and natural way through games, conversations, and activities if parents are interested. I enjoy activities that encourage children’s imagination and development, such as reading, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, educational games, and creative projects. I believe children learn best when they feel supported, encouraged, and happy. I am also someone who values health, wellness, and a positive lifestyle. I enjoy staying active, cooking, and maintaining a healthy routine, and I love sharing positive habits with the people around me. Families can count on me to be dependable, respectful, and attentive. I would be happy to become someone they can trust and rely on to provide quality care and a positive experience for their children.

"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)."
