Jennifer 1 review
New Orleans
$20 per hour for 1 child

I am a reliable and an experienced child care provider. I have obtained an Elementary Education B.S. degree at the University of New Orleans, served as a teacher, and have a wealth of training in babysitting. I have raised four children and also have enjoyed working with all ages of children in various community events and tutoring. I am patient and motivated. I strive to help facilitate a positive environment for families. Animals are also special to me. I have a love for children and also like to play fun games to make them laugh. Please know that I can help tidy up while helping the family as a nanny or sitter, as well. :)

Jennifer cared for my 3-year-old son on a regular basis for the past year. We were so sad when we moved out of state and had to say goodbye to her, as she truly became like a part of our family. She is caring, reliable, and goes above and beyond to give our son enriching, fun and educational experiences. She was always bringing fun to toys and projects to the house, had a great sense of playfulness and adventure and endless energy to run around the playground with our son. She was always punctual and in great spirits, and accommodated our family's busy schedule with a great attitude. More than that, she even cleaned our house and did our laundry during nap time!! She has been such a blessing to us. Any families who get to work with Jennifer are truly lucky. She is one of a kind.

Christopher New Orleans
$16 per hour for 1 child

I am a parent whom is great with children and their friends. I am personable, respectful and an excellent cook. I can clean adequately and have a very good sense of boundaries and a knack for overcoming minor issues. I have the mechanical abilities and growing skillsets to provide top tier service with a smile. My children are 17, 13, and 10 and currently live abroad. I work mornings so I have time to utilize in the evening. Empty nest syndrome is bringing me to expand my vast skills where they might prove useful. I have experience and patience with dogs, cats, fish, frogs, insects etc. I love dogs just can't have any but I offer part-time love for them. And of course not just children and pets, but grandparents and elder in-laws too. I have a perfect driving record if you need an errand run. Need your house watched or checked-in on? I have reliable transportation and truly the best customer service for any job. If I've applied for your gig it's within my skillset and I look forward to meeting :)

"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)."
