$22 per hour for 1 child

Hello, i’m currently a senior college student at Dillard University as a Biology and Pre-Health double major. I was blessed with a younger brother and beautiful cousins which have taught me all my babysitting skills! I’ve even took care of my uncle for a couple months while he struggled with heart disease. In addition, i’ve also previously worked at summer camps that had children ranging from kindergarten through eighth grade. I’m open to caring for any age ranging from infants to elderly. I am also a huge pet lover as I hope to become a veterinarian when I graduate from college. I have a labor doodle of my own named Nala and nurture her in love. So I am more then welcome to care for pets, even familiar with reptiles as well. I am skillful in cooking, cleaning, and all the house duties. Hope to see you see you soon!

“Jayden cared for my three children—a 6-month-old, a 3-year-old, and a 5-year-old—and did an amazing job with all of them. She was dependable, professional, and incredibly patient, making sure each child received the attention and care they needed. She kept the older kids engaged with fun activities while also providing excellent care for our baby. I always felt confident leaving my children with her and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and caring babysitter.”

$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.”

"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)."
