Booked by 4 families in Dayton, KY

I’m a caring, responsible, and energetic babysitter with over 14 years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens. I’m certified in CPR and First Aid, so your child’s safety is always my top priority. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids—whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, reading stories, or keeping them engaged in fun and safe activities. I'm also comfortable with light housekeeping, meal prep, and bedtime routines. I strive to create a warm, positive environment and treat every child with kindness and respect. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and care for your little ones like they’re my own!

Jamye was thoughtful, flexible and kind. Thank you!!

Kennedy $20 per hour for 1 child

Passionate and dedicated caregiver with extensive experience working with high-risk youth, I’ve seen firsthand the transformative power of a safe, supportive environment. My journey has taught me that every child benefits from a little laughter and the reassurance of being cared for. Witnessing their smiles and growth is not just my job—it’s my joy. With a commitment to providing both emotional support and genuine fun, I thrive on creating spaces where children feel valued, secure, and free to be themselves. Making a positive impact in their lives is truly fulfilling, and I am excited to continue this meaningful work.

Madison $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Maddie. I’m (almost) 21 and I recently started babysitting a friend of mines children! They are 6 and 8. It’s not as hard as I thought it would be, and I’m actually having some fun with it! I take them to the creek, help them with their work, make them snacks and lunch, make sure they get dressed in the mornings and keep them fed and alive.

"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)."
