Nathalie 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Opa Locka, FL

Hi everyone!! My name is Nathalie, and I’ve been caring for children for over 10 years — from toddlers to preteens — in both private homes and five-star resort kids’ clubs. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and currently study Aircraft Maintenance at George T. Baker Aviation College, but my heart has and will always been in childcare. I’m known for creating engaging, screen-free activities that mix creativity, learning, and fun — from arts and crafts to outdoor games and STEM projects. I’ve also worked with children with autism and love supporting each child’s unique personality and routine. Families describe me as dependable, calm under pressure, and genuinely caring. I speak English, Spanish, and Portuguese and am happy to help with homework, bedtime routines, and travel care.

Shayna $35 per hour for 1 child

Hiya! My name is Shayna and kids have always been my focus since I was a kid myself. I am a Christian youth with experience in child care as well as pet care and people with physical special needs. I am CPR certified, PCA certified (on my way to becoming a CNA), fully vaccinated, drivers licensed and have my child care certification from DCF as well as a recent background check passed. I have worked with kids of all types 1v1 as well as up to a dozen kids at a time with years of babysitting and daycare experience as well as children with special needs (both physical and mental) as well as at risk children. I really enjoy getting to know kids and teaching and helping them grow while working alongside their caregivers to lead to their best and brightest future. I have plenty of experience in private child care from occasional babysitting to international travel care.

"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)."
