Adrienne $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m a caregiver with over seven years of combined babysitting and professional caregiving experience. I currently serve weekly in my church’s children’s ministry, where I care for infants through 12-year-olds, including children with developmental and physical disabilities. Thank you for taking the time to read my bio! You are about to read a fairly in-depth amount of information, but I hope it gives you a clear picture of the kind of caregiver I am and strive to be. Happy reading!! I love meeting children where they are, building trust at their own pace, and creating a space where they feel safe, confident, and excited to learn. I’m a very hands-on and engaged caregiver. You’ll usually find me joining in on playground adventures, board games, crafts, baking, reading stories, outdoor play, or homework time right alongside the children. I believe some of the best learning happens naturally through play, conversation, and everyday moments. I believe every interaction with a child is an opportunity to build trust and confidence. I want the children I care for to know they are safe, respected, and heard, while also experiencing what healthy, dependable relationships look like through everyday interactions. My background in professional caregiving and social services has taught me to remain calm, patient, and dependable while providing compassionate, individualized care. I’m comfortable with infant care, bottle feeding, diaper changes, meal preparation, bedtime routines, bath time, tutoring, light housekeeping, laundry, and pet care. Every family is different, and I truly value following your routines, respecting your parenting style, and maintaining open communication so you always feel informed and confident while you’re away. Families describe me as patient, trustworthy, and reliable. My goal is to provide more than just childcare, I want your children to feel loved, safe, seen, and genuinely cared for. And also, to have fun while we’re together.

Jennifer $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Jennifer and I am a Hispanic babysitter with over 3 years of experience working with children. In my first year, I had the joy of taking care of a 6-month-old from 7 am to 5 pm for a duration of 3 months. The following year, I looked after a 6-year-old from 6 pm to 10 pm for 5 months while balancing my morning college classes. Lastly, in my third year, I watched my neighbor's 3-year-old daughter for a couple of weeks from 9 am to 5 pm. With my diverse experience, I have worked with children of various age groups. From infants to toddlers and elementary school-aged children, I am comfortable and confident in providing quality care for each stage of development. When it comes to activities, I enjoy engaging children in educational and entertaining endeavors. Whether it's reading books, playing games, or exploring nature, I believe in fostering their curiosity and creativity. In addition to my babysitting skills, I am also a certified lifeguard with 4 years of experience. Through this role, I have obtained certifications in CPR and first aid. I have also honed my teaching abilities by providing swim lessons to children aged 4-13. Moving on to pet care, I have a range of experience with various pets and breeds. Whether it is walking dogs, feeding pets, or engaging in playtime, I am capable of providing the necessary care for your furry friends. I am comfortable with large animals and have no issues with animals that shed. Overall, I am a reliable and responsible babysitter with a passion for working with children. My experience, certifications, and abilities make me a well-rounded caregiver who is committed to ensuring both the safety and happiness of your little ones.

Alayla $20 per hour for 1 child

I’ve been babysitting for awhile now mostly through family or friends of friends. I worked at a swim school and taught children as young as 6 months old to 12 years old. I grew up in a very large family and cared for all of the children. I think that’s it’s a given to clean up and do household tasks while I am in someone else’s space.

"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)."
