I bring over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. Being that I come from a large family, I naturally stepped into the role of a caregiver early on. Beyond that, I’ve actively cared for my nieces and nephews, building a strong foundation in child care. My experience has taught me patience, adaptability, and the importance of creating a safe, nurturing environment for children to thrive. Whether it’s assisting with homework, planning engaging activities, preparing meals, or maintaining household routines, I take pride in ensuring kids feel supported and valued. I’m also skilled at balancing structure with fun, understanding the unique needs of children at different developmental stages. From soothing infants to mentoring teens, I’ve learned to tailor my approach to each child’s personality and needs. I have a natural ability to connect with people of all ages, which extends to seniors and even pets, having provided companionship and assistance for older family members and cared for household pets. My reliability, strong work ethic, and passion for caregiving make me a great fit for any family seeking a dependable and compassionate helper.

I’m a patient person. I enjoy being surrounded by kids. I'm married and I have a 23 years old son. I believe children are the most beautiful gift someone can ever receive. I like to educate my littles pumpkins, what’s better than taking good care and educate them at the same time. I’m bilingual Spanish-English (my english is a little bit limited) I’m Please let me know if want to schedule does days on the app calendar so can ensure the days and hours for you on it. I’m looking forward to start working with you. If you need to contact me here is my phone numberalways open to teaching them my native language which is Spanish if the parents are comfortable with it. Feel free to contact me at any time.

Katia was the best. I was comfortable with her right away. I knew my kids were in good hands. I was able to relax and have a wonderful evening with my wife and not worry about them. I was able to enjoy myself all night. The cherry on top was Katia teaching my oldest some new words in Spanish. My daughter was thrilled.

Hi! I’m Janie, a loving and reliable nanny/babysitter with 5+ years of childcare experience! I’ve worked in daycares and as a private nanny, mostly with infants and toddlers, but I love caring for kids of all ages. I’m super passionate about helping little ones learn, grow, and feel safe (and have fun while doing it 🩷). I’ve taken multiple early childhood education classes/courses. I’m both CPR and first aid certified as well as being a Certified Nursing Assistant. I also have great references that I’m more than happy to provide! I’m currently looking for part time or full time work and have a very flexible schedule. Feel free to message me or comment with any questions or just to get to know me a bit better☺️

I cannot recommend Janie enough. She was our babysitter for a while, and she truly set the bar for what great childcare looks like. She’s patient, reliable, and genuinely cares about kids, you can tell she does this from the heart, not just for a paycheck. One thing that always gave me so much peace of mind was knowing she is certified in both CPR and first aid. Leaving your babies with someone is scary, but with Janie, I never worried for a second. I always knew they were in safe hands. Even though it’s been a few months since she worked with us (she was with us for years, since my kids were infants/toddlers), the kids still talk about her and ask when they’ll get to see her again. Any family would be truly lucky to have her!

I spent 2-3 years working as a certified behavioral technician with children who have autism and special needs, including nonverbal kids and children with challenging behaviors. That experience taught me deep patience, consistency, and how to connect with kids who communicate differently. I recently graduated from Worcester Polytechnic Institute with a degree in Computer Science and am in my gap year, which means I have a flexible schedule and a lot of availability. I've also babysat my younger cousins throughout my life and am comfortable with everything from diapering and feeding infants to homework help and activities with older kids. I have my own car and am happy to drive. I'm also a cat owner and comfortable with pets.

Hi everybody, my name is Gabi, I’m so excited to become a part of your children’s lives! 💕 I currently live in Lexington, Massachusetts, and I’m caring for three kids: a 5-month-old baby, a 3-year-old, and a 5-year-old. I have a lot of experience with children of all ages. I’ve worked as a nanny in Washington State, taking care of two toddlers, and in Chicago, where I cared for four girls ages 3 months, 3, 5, and 7 years. I truly love doing activities with kids and making each day fun and creative. I’m really looking forward to meeting you and introducing myself in person! Warmly, Gabi 🩷

"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)."
