I am an elementary teacher who is passionate about taking care of children. Recently, I’ve taken time out of the classroom to take care of my grandmother. I’d like to extend my care to the community. I am clean, organized, and responsible. I also love pets and have two cats of my own!

Lakesia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Lakesia — a dependable, intuitive caregiver who believes that caring for someone is more than supervision… it’s stewardship. I’ve spent over 10 years caring for my aunt with Rheumatoid Arthritis, assisting with mobility support, daily routines, household management, and emotional encouragement. I also provided one year of dedicated care for a patient with Alzheimer’s, where patience, attentiveness, and calm reassurance were essential every single day. Those experiences shaped me into someone who is steady, compassionate, and highly observant. With infants and children, I focus on safety first — always. But beyond that, I create an environment where children feel secure, engaged, and respected. I’m hands-on, present, and intentional. Whether it’s soothing an infant, helping with homework, preparing meals, managing bedtime routines, or keeping things structured and organized, I show up fully. For seniors, I offer dignified, non-medical support and genuine companionship. I understand how important it is for families to trust the person caring for their loved one, and I don’t take that lightly. I treat every home with respect and every individual with patience. As a household assistant, I’m proactive and detail-oriented. I don’t wait to be told what needs to be done — I look for ways to make your day easier. Light housekeeping, organizing, meal prep, errands — I help create peace in your home. Families often describe me as calm, reliable, and naturally nurturing. I believe consistency builds trust, and trust builds peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your loved ones the way you would — with attentiveness, integrity, and heart — I would love to connect.

Kaiti 1 review
$18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a proud mom of two little ones—a curious and energetic 1-year-old and a sweet, imaginative 3-year-old. With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for children between the ages of 1 and 7, childcare is not just something I do—it’s a part of who I am. Before becoming a mom, I was a dedicated nanny for a wonderful child from birth all the way through his 10th birthday. I’ve also worked as a toddler gymnastics teacher, where I combined movement, music, and fun to help little ones grow strong and confident. Creativity and play are at the heart of everything I do. I love to sing, dance, read stories, and write. I’m also a big believer in screen-free learning and love incorporating arts and crafts, music, and nature into everyday play. I enjoy spending time outdoors—whether it’s hiking, swimming, or simply exploring new places with curious little minds. I believe in nurturing kids through hands-on experiences, imagination, and a whole lot of heart. Whether we’re painting, building forts, or going on a nature scavenger hunt, I always aim to create a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children can thrive.

Katie is an amazing mom and a wonderful professional. I would trust her with my kids anytime if we lived close enough! Watching her with her kids is great they're always doing fun activities and eating health snacks!

"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)."
