$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Opa Locka, FL

Hi, I am a down to earth person who has 5 years of experience as a sitter. I have a lot of experience. I am very punctual, follow the rules and make sure your kids are having responsible fun. I have a lot of experience taking care of children from all age groups. I have worked with 40+ different families, casually, and some long term. Some have been family friends and others were families that I was recommended too, from clients. I’m a university student right now, looking for casual part time positions. Currently in tract to becoming a licensed medical assistant, and CPR/AED/ First Aid Certified for Adults, Children and Infants. Majoring in biological sciences and plan to become a physician.

If I could give Daniela 100 stars, I absolutely would! She is trustworthy, patient, punctual, flexible, and incredibly engaged with my daughter. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond to make my daughter feel comfortable, cared for, and entertained. As a first-time mom, I was very nervous about hiring a sitter online, especially since my daughter had never been cared for by anyone outside of our family. Daniela immediately put both of us at ease. My daughter warmed up to her right away and had such a wonderful time. Days later, she was still talking about her “play date” with Daniela. Daniela is simply the best, and I would hire her again without hesitation. I recommend her 100% to any family looking for a caring, reliable, and exceptional sitter.

Aleksandra $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Aleksandra! I have a couple of years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I truly enjoy spending time with kids and keeping them engaged through fun activities like arts and crafts, outdoor play, reading, and games. I’m also comfortable helping with homework, preparing light meals, and keeping daily routines on track. Over the years, I’ve cared for both calm and energetic children, which has taught me to stay patient, adaptable, and attentive to each child’s unique personality. Safety, trust, and creating a positive environment are always my top priorities. In addition to childcare, I have experience with pet care — from walking and feeding to playtime and cuddles. I’m comfortable with both small and large pets, including those that shed. I can also assist with household services such as light cleaning, laundry, organizing, and errands. Families often describe me as reliable, caring, and easy to communicate with. I look forward to connecting and helping your family!

"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."

"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)."
