Maddie $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Barataria, LA

Hi! My name is Maddie! I am a sophomore at Tulane University, where I am studying psychology (specifically child psychology) as well as political science. I have lived in Boston my whole life, but my mom is from NOLA so I have spent a lot of time here growing up, and I loved it so much I had to come to school here! I have been officially working with kids since the summer of 2022 where I worked as a counselor at a sleep away camp for seven weeks. I have worked at that camp every summer since, and have acquired many different skills that allow me to work well with children. I have also been babysitting for neighbors and family friends since I was around 13. Since then, I have gotten my lifeguard certification which makes me CPR, AED, and first aid certified for both infants, children, and adults. I am extremely patient, especially when it comes to kids with special needs or preferences. On top of this, I have been raised with pets (dogs and cats) my whole life and am very happy to take care of them too! I have my drivers license and a car with me at school, so I would be able to do pick ups and drop offs if needed.

chloe $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Chloe, I am currently a sophomore at Xavier University here in New Orleans. My major is Chem Pre-med I want to be an ultrasound technician or radiologist. I am originally from Mississippi so I do have a bit of a country accent or so I’ve heard lol but nothing extreme. I have had background babysitting and watching children through my family friends daycare in Jackson MS (Little Einstein Daycare) part-time, I also did my fair share in babysitting for family friends children from ages 3-9. I primarily care for ages around 3-5. I enjoy really engaging with the children, taking them outside to play or fun arts and craft ideas. I like to cook, I also played basketball and love sports, I am also a little of a diehard fan for musicals and anything involving singing. I am willing to help with homework and also cleaning up as needed. I can’t wait to help!

Dynasty $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Dynasty, I’m married, family-oriented, and love God. I enjoy cooking, spending time with children, and caring for pets. I have hands-on experience babysitting my nephew, which has taught me patience, creativity, and the importance of making kids feel safe and loved. I enjoy doing activities like arts and crafts, reading, playing outdoors, and helping with homework. I also have a Goldendoodle, so I’m very familiar with feeding, walking, playing, and caring for pets of different sizes even large ones that shed. Whether it’s child care or pet care, I bring joy, responsibility, and dedication to everything I do, and I would love the opportunity to serve your family. Even though i don’t have years of experience, I am willing to learn and grow & gain more experience!

Erin $18 per hour for 1 child

Im a very organised person who people would say is very agreeable. I find people and human behavior fascinating, and believe me when I say I have the patience of a god. Nothing grosses me out, either. Kids love me, and babies love to stare. They are just drawn to me. Other than that, I cook( and well, at that), fix things from dry wall to difficult situations, I drive, I enjoy teaching, and I come bearing art supplies. I can read rooms pretty well and have a great sense of common sense, which I regrettably have to admit not everybody does. I follow directions to a T, and stand by the rules that are set and given to me. I will most likely help take care of your plants, with permission, as well if you're a plant parent. I am a plant fan myself. Tell me what you need, and Ill make it happen.

"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)."
