Booked by 1 family in Indianapolis, IN

Hi! I am ZNia. I am starting my first semester at Uindy in August. I am offering child care services. I love working with kids in a professional setting and have been for 4 years. I have transportation for children if needed as well.

“We have a 2-, 4-, and 6-year-old. Booked Z'Nia an hour before I needed her and she showed up early and was very nice. She's an early childhood teacher which is always nice for toddlers. We'll definitely use her again if we're in the area. I highly recommend for anyone. ”

Booked by 1 family in Indianapolis, IN

I'm a recent college graduate with a degree in neuroscience, focusing on getting classes done and doing my job as a caregiver. I have 4 years of experience as a babysitter. I'm available for weekend or weekdays babysitting depending on my schedule calendar. Let me know other days you might need for me to babysit! I have experience with children of ages 6-18 but i would like to experience with toddlers :) I'm skilled in meal prep, diaper changes, sleep strategies, and I have my own car. I'm patient, enjoy building connections with kids, and am comfortable with all kinds of personalities. Feel free to contact me for references or to set up a call!

Hello, I am a recent Indiana University graduate. I am looking for a new opportunity to gain more experience. I am very kind and caring, I have been working with children since I was in High School. I teach swim lessons, I babysat in high school, and I am really good with pets. I am a very crafty person and I like to do a lot of crafts and projects! I have found that this keeps the children happy.

"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."

"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)."
