Melina $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I'm Melina, a devoted mother of three with over two decades of experience as a preschool teacher catering to children of all ages. Originally from Peru, I bring bilingual fluency in Spanish, alongside a CDA certification, and thorough training in first aid and CPR. I take pride in my nurturing nature and passion for childcare, offering not just supervision but a caring environment for little ones. While I adore caring for children, I do have a fear of dogs and, unfortunately, can't be around them when they're freely roaming. Despite my full-time commitment as a preschool teacher from Monday to Friday, 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM, I'm eager to extend my care and assistance to families seeking support during evenings and weekends. Additionally, I'm happy to lend a hand with light household chores to make life easier for busy parents. Looking forward to the opportunity to support your family!"

Hello Family. My name is Angie and I have been working as a nanny for more than 3 years. I have always liked children because I am an older sister, I have two brothers who I have always helped take care of. That's why I have always had a lot of affinity with children. I like to help them with all their homework, spend time with them and teach them fun games. I can take care of the child's feeding, cleaning and personal care and help with light house cleaning. I love animals and would have no problem with them. If you need me to take your child to school or to extracurricular activities, I will be happy to do so.

"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."

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)."
