Labebi $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I have several years of child care experience in creating a fun and nurturing learning environment for toddlers while their parents have to be away at work. I enjoy spending time with children and creating activities and games that help make the time at home fun and exciting. I’m also open to other light house keeping tasks or errands if needed. I do have my own car.

Itzel $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Itzel. I am currently in college working on my associates for Nursing pediatric care. I enjoy being active and playing sports. I’ve been babysitting and senior care since I was about 16 years old and I enjoy it. Being able to spend time with children and others is great. I enjoy watching them grow and being able to support them. Being creative and teaching new activities as well as learning new things they also like. Staying organized and helping others also makes me happy especially when it also makes them happy. Also organizing and cleaning is very important for safety. I enjoy making different kinds of food/meals. It just feels great being there for someone & supporting them!

Hello! My name is Marie and I'm currently a rising sophomore at Wilbur Wright College. I speak English and Spanish. I am offering child care and household services. IF MY RATES ARE TOO MUCH I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO BRING THEM DOWN ! :) I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 10 years old. My responsibilities have included helping with homework (reading, and writing), cleaning, how to set boundaries, etc! I also help with cooking, and running errands! I am allergic to cats and dogs but happy to work with families with dogs!

"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."

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)."
