Hello! I’m Peyton, a college student from uptown New Orleans. I’ve worked as a babysitter and caretaker for my family and my teachers for years, looking after toddlers and school-aged children. I’m able to tutor, monitor, and provide for multiple kids. I also have experience working with neurodivergent children and I work to incorporate things I learn from parents as well as resources such as those found in ADDitude magazine and Teaching Young Children magazine.

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!

Trinity 1 review
$21 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Westwego, LA

From a young age, I’ve always been surrounded by little ones — I’m a proud middle child of 11 siblings, so caring for babies and children of all ages truly comes naturally to me. Growing up in a big family taught me patience, responsibility, and how to create a calm, structured environment even on the busiest days. I have two years of professional childcare experience, in addition to a lifetime of caring for infants, toddlers, and pre-teens within my own family. I am completely comfortable caring for newborns, and I can confidently handle up to three children at a time. I am BLS, CPR, and First Aid certified, have a college degree, and I’m experienced with homework help, light cleaning, cooking kid-friendly meals, and maintaining routines. My approach is patient, warm, and nurturing, but also organized — I like to keep things running smoothly so parents come home to a peaceful environment. I enjoy planning engaging activities such as outdoor play, board games, educational games, and creative projects. I’m happy to follow your household rules and adapt to your family’s preferences. I provide clear communication, including written daily notes if you’d like, and I’m flexible with whatever method parents prefer (text updates, check-ins, etc.). I have my own car, a clean driving record, and I am comfortable with pets. Above all, my goal is to make sure your children feel safe, happy, and genuinely cared for. I would love the opportunity to support your family and become someone your children feel excited to see.

Trinity is very friendly and sweet. She watched our baby so we can enjoy being adults. Definitely will book again. Thank you so much for your help!

"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)."
