Sarah $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a reliable, patient, and energetic caregiver with several years of experience as both a nanny and house manager. I’ve cared for children of different ages, helping with school pick-ups, homework, meal prep, bedtime routines, transportation to activities, and creating fun, engaging days. Along with childcare, I’m experienced in household management, including grocery shopping, laundry, organizing, light housekeeping, and keeping busy family schedules running smoothly. I genuinely love building strong relationships with children and creating a safe, positive environment where they can learn, grow, and have fun. Families describe me as dependable, organized, compassionate, and someone who always goes above and beyond. I also love animals, so I’m happy to help with pets as well. I’m currently studying psychology, which has strengthened my communication skills, patience, and understanding of child development. I would love the opportunity to support your family and become someone you can truly rely on.

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Ruskin, FL

My name is Elaine and I'm offering child care, pet care, and household services. I graduated from Eckerd College in 2020 with degrees in Environmental Studies and Spanish. I work locally at a preserve in Tampa Bay teaching nature-based camps and outdoor programs for children ages 3-13. I love working with kids and animals and found my passion for environmental education while in college. In addition to camps and babysitting, I have experience as an online learning facilitator where I supervised a group of early elementary students doing online school during the pandemic. My responsibilities included tutoring, creating crafts, interacting with teachers, and helping with mealtimes. When it comes to animals, I am comfortable around and working with furry friends like cats and dogs, as well as exotic animals. I have worked with pets with medical needs and special dietary restrictions. I also am happy to do household assistance including running errands, cleaning, and plant-based cooking. I have reliable transportation and a clean driving record for any needs outside of the household, too!

Elaine was very communicative, on time, and played with my kid. Looking forward to making other plans to go out!

"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)."
