Derelyn $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Derelyn. I am passionate about helping families navigate the transition into parenthood with confidence, practical guidance, and compassionate support. As a birth and postpartum doula and Newborn Care Specialist, I provide individualized care that meets families where they are. My training through Sista Midwife Productions and Full Bloom Birthing, combined with CPR and First Aid certification, has equipped me to support parents through labor, recovery, newborn adjustment, and the many changes that come with welcoming a baby. Whether I’m offering overnight newborn care, assisting during the postpartum period, or supporting a family through birth, I strive to create a calm, nurturing environment where parents can rest, recover, and feel empowered in their parenting journey. My approach is rooted in empathy, education, and the belief that every family deserves to feel seen, supported, and cared for.

Booked by 2 families in Decatur, GA

Hi, I’m Akelia! I’m originally from Jamaica, now living in Georgia. Growing up in a close-knit, extended family, I gained hands-on experience caring for younger siblings and cousins, where I learned the value of responsibility, patience and creating a supportive environment. In Jamaica, families are deeply connected, and I bring that same sense of community and care to anything I’m responsible for. I’m a cheerful and dependable person who enjoys helping children. I have a solid academic background and I’m happy to assist with homework and educational activities. In addition to childcare, I’m skilled in household services like cleaning and keeping spaces organized, ensuring a tidy and welcoming environment for your family. If you’re looking for a sitter who will treat your children with love, care and attention, I’d be honored to help!

My daughter truly enjoyed the company of this young lady. She communicate communicated very well and I felt completely safe leaving her with my child in today’s assignment would recommend again.

Chantell $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Tilly certified RBT, specializing in supporting children with autism and unique needs. Childcare is my family’s legacy, and I’ve made it my own, blending professional expertise with warmth. I’m finishing my Early Childhood Education degree, and I believe every child should shine. One of my greatest strengths is connecting with children personally. I learn their personalities and interests so they feel seen. Whether it’s imaginative play, stories, puzzles, or schoolwork, I meet children where they are. I love learning through play—art, music, sensory activities—while ensuring growth, fun, and structure. In my care, your child will thrive!

"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

"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)."
