Barbara $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Barbara, and I’m a mom to a wonderful 6 year old daughter. While I’m still building my professional experience in childcare, being a mom has taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, communication, and creating a safe and loving environment for children. I have experience caring for toddlers as well as pets, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and keeping them engaged. I especially like planning fun, dynamic, and educational activities that encourage creativity, learning, movement, and imagination. I prefer to keep screen time limited and instead encourage children to explore activities such as arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, games, and age-appropriate learning activities. My goal is for children to feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while also having a fun and meaningful time. I would love the opportunity to support your family and take great care of your little ones. I look forward to getting to know you and your family.

Hi! My name is Maria and I’m a caring, responsible, and energetic caregiver with experience working with young children.

I’m also a swim instructor, which has helped me become very patient, attentive, and confident working with children of different ages and personalities. Families describe me as reliable, kind, organized, and easy to communicate with. I love keeping kids engaged through creative activities, outdoor play, reading, and helping them learn while having fun. I’m comfortable with meal prep, light housekeeping related to the children, bedtime routines, and maintaining a structured environment. My goal is always to make both children and parents feel comfortable, supported, and cared for.

"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)."
