Booked by 3 families in Covington, KY

I’ve been providing state-licensed care for over 10 years (and even longer overall!), including care for seniors, pets, and managing household tasks. I also have three wonderful children of my own, aged 15, 10, and 7. My passion lies in caring for others—whether it’s children, seniors, pets, or maintaining a well-organized home. I truly cherish every moment of it. For me, it’s not just a job; it’s a deeply rewarding experience, and I’m committed to ensuring safety, promoting growth, and creating a clean, supportive environment for everyone in my care. Currently, I’m working in a preschool classroom for a school district. With the school year coming to an end, I’m excited and ready to help families with their little ones. Please feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to help!

Booked by 1 family in Covington, KY

Hi! I’m Darci — a reliable, nurturing, and attentive caregiver with a genuine love for both children and animals. Caring for others comes naturally to me, and I approach every family and pet with patience, presence, and respect. I have experience creating calm, engaging environments for children where they feel safe, supported, and free to be themselves. Whether that means helping with routines, playtime, homework, or simply offering steady companionship, I take pride in being someone kids feel comfortable and happy around. When it comes to pets, I treat them like family. I’m attentive to their individual personalities, needs, and routines — from walks and feedings to playtime, medication, and cuddle sessions. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel at ease when they’re away, and I always care for animals as if they were my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and deeply mindful of the trust placed in me. My goal is to support families by providing care that feels safe, loving, and aligned with your household’s rhythm — so you can step away knowing your loved ones are in good hands. I’d be honored to care for your children and furry friends.

Darci is truly one of the unwaveringly gentle and kindest people I’ve met. She navigates through life exuding peace, laughter and kindness. My kids adored spending time with her and ask about her all the time, she definitely set their standard high! Would highly recommend Darci for any house sitting, pet and childcare needs. She’s easygoing, communicative and a very responsible individual.

"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)."
