Taryn $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Taryn, I’m 20 and I am very passionate about working with children (and I love pets!). I currently attend the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, and I’m hoping to find a family that is looking for a nanny/frequent sitter. I’m currently in Knoxville TN, but will be in Darien IL during the summer and other breaks. I’m a sophomore and I’m studying to become a pediatric occupational therapist. I have a deep understanding of child development and the importance of fostering a positive and nurturing environment for children. I am committed to providing high-quality care that promotes growth, development, and learning for all the children I work with. I also have a younger brother who has autism and intermittent explosive disorder. I have spent countless hours working with him, learning about his needs and how to provide the best possible care for him. I have developed the patience, empathy, and the skills that are necessary to provide excellent care for children with a wide range of unique needs. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old, and I worked at an after school daycare program at the Lagrange Highlands Elementary/Middle school with kindergarten-Middle schoolers for a year, before going to college. This past summer I was a full-time nanny for an 11 year old girl with some special needs, where I would drive her to her activities, ride bikes, swim, paint, bake desserts, make slime, and do other fun actives with. I also made her meals, walked their two dogs, and did various chores/maintenance cleaning each day. I know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident about leaving your children with a nanny/sitter, and I am more than happy to stop by to meet you and your kiddos before being hired. Thank you for considering me as your nanny. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and your family!

Hello, My name is Salma, I'm a creative 31 years old. French speaker and looking for a part/full-time of babysitting job. I love working with children; their inquisitive attitudes and loads of energy make them a joy to be around. I am responsible and dependable, but also fun and energetic.

Spending time with children is the only work I have encountered in my life that has not felt like work to me.

I enjoy working with children in the outdoors, creating arts, projects, while making sure your children have a fun time in a safe environment. I enjoy being surrounded by children because of their imagination, innocence, and creativity. I am an enthusiastic, fun, creative, energetic and responsible person. I love playing sports, I played 4 years college Basketball and Soccer, and still play Basketball every Thursdays and Soccer on Sundays. I was a soccer coach for kids at SUPER SOCCER STARS from the age 12 months to 15 years old. I love listening to music of all different genres, reading books, dancing, and meeting people of all different cultures. Learning is a lifelong passion for me enjoying the many different cultures around the world. I have 13 years of experiences, and working as a sitter is a wonderful experience, providing opportunities to meet many families and children of all ages. I am honored to take care of the children I meet, and have a positive impact on their lives. The variety of families that request sitter services continues to make each day I work an interesting and fun experience in my life.

"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)."
