Morgan $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Morgan, and I’m located in the Ankeny/Des Moines area! I’m a friendly, dependable, hardworking person who enjoys helping others and making their lives a little easier. I offer childcare, pet care, non-medical senior companionship, and household services. Childcare: I have experience babysitting children of all ages, from infants and toddlers to older children. I’ve also helped care for my siblings throughout their childhood and teenage years. Two of them have since graduated high school and are now adults, giving me the rewarding experience of watching children grow through different stages of life. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to help with meals, homework, activities, and everyday care. Senior Care: I previously worked at a nursing home and rehabilitation center, giving me valuable experience in an environment dedicated to caring for older adults and individuals recovering from injuries or illnesses. I also have two great-grandmothers in their late 80s, so caring about the well-being of older generations is personal to me. I offer non-medical companionship, meal preparation, errands, light housekeeping, and everyday assistance. Pet Care: I’m a huge animal lover! I have dogs of my own, Holli and Tucker, and I’m comfortable caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. From small dogs and large breeds to horses, farm animals, and even turkeys, I’m happy to help! I can assist with feeding, walking, exercise, playtime, and general animal care. Household Services: I’m also available for cleaning, laundry, organizing, cooking, grocery shopping, errands, house sitting, and other household tasks. I have a professional background in transportation and delivery and understand the importance of responsibility, reliability, and communication. I take pride in being trustworthy, respectful, adaptable, and attentive to each family’s individual needs. Whether you need occasional assistance or regular help, I’d love the opportunity to make your life a little easier! I look forward to meeting you, your family, and your furry (or feathered!) friends!

Gracie $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a nanny with over 15 years experience, I started in college nannying for a few families long term. After college, I went on to be an au pair with four different families in four different countries, it was an amazing experience to see the world and become part of their families. After my travels as an au pair, I caught the travel bug and backpacked around the world for about 10 years. During these travel times I worked and gained some very valuable skills, like managing a ship in the Antarctic and being an outdoor guide in the Arctic and Antarctic. I also worked on a 120 foot sailboat as the cook and I’ve done chef and cooking rolls other places around the world as well. I did a lot of volunteering in little communities. They were doing Eco projects or building houses. I’m a very good house cleaner, I noticed things that need to get done and do them and truly go out of my way. Take care and support other people. The last four years I’ve been managing high scale events and while I love it, it’s a very full on high stress position. I’ve decided that some of my happiest jobs I’ve ever had was being a nanny for a good family and I would love to just get back to doing that full-time. Of course child care takes a lot of energy and responsibility but it’s also such a fun space to play and be creative. I’m completely comfortable with all age ranges and open to working full-time with one family or part-time with several different families, coming in for a date night is pretty fun as well because the kids and I can also have a fun night playing while the parents go out and have a fun time.

"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)."
