Katalina $31 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have been professionally nannying children for fourteen years, varying from infants to preteens and would love to get to know your kiddo(s)! I have experience with nanny shares (two toddlers), and have had multiple positions caring for 2 kids at the same time. I also have experience with house managing, meal prep, driving kids, bottle prep, diaper changing, and putting down for naps/bed. I also have experience being out and about with kiddos, as well as socializing with other parents/nannies and their children. I’m very adaptive to constantly changing circumstances and pride myself with being able to roll with the punches :) I also have experience helping children develop skills to manage their own emotions, and teaching them developmentally appropriate social skills. I’m very warm and patient with children, especially during meltdowns. I also have experience helping navigate conflict resolution. I am the best fit for a family who values children learning emotional skills over learning manners. I know manners are extremely important to many families, but I prefer to let a child have big feelings, help them through those feelings and develop age appropriate skills to help them the next time it happens. I will absolutely help kiddos learn manners ("please" and "thank yous") but only when the kiddo seems in the right head space to absorb such info. For example, if a kiddo is having a bad day and yells at me that I'm stupid, I am more likely to respond by asking, "is that how you feel about me right now?" than asking for an apology. Then after they've calmed down, I would say something like, "I know you were frustrated with me earlier, and that is absolutely okay. But let's come up with a different thing you can say to me instead of telling me I'm stupid." That way it's a process the kiddo and I are involved in together, and they feel like they have some control within a structured and boundaried relationship. If a baby is having a meltdown, I’m the kind of caregiver who will soothe them through it and validate their feelings, instead of trying to make the meltdown stop. I’m an avid reader (and a published author with HarperCollins!), and my hobbies include baking, knitting, sewing, yoga, meditation, singing, and doing theatre :) I am CPR and Choke Prevention certified. AND I LOVE PETS :D

sahhi $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Brighton, MA

Hello families! 🤗 I'm Sahhi , a 23-year-old I'm so excited to introduce myself as I look for a wonderful full-time nanny position, though I'm also open to part-time opportunities. I was born and raised right here in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and I've just recently graduated from college. I'm a responsible and reliable individual, holding a driver's license and committed to ensuring I can always get to work. My experience with children is quite extensive. I've had the pleasure of working in a daycare setting with children ranging from infants to toddlers, giving me a solid foundation in early childhood care. Beyond that, I've had incredibly rewarding experiences working with children of various ages and needs. I had the privilege of caring for a wonderful 9-year-old boy on the autism spectrum who was non-verbal. I've also cared for two young boys, aged three and nine, and I've found that I have a natural ability to connect with and manage children across a wide age range. My patience is one of my greatest strengths, and I truly believe in creating a nurturing and engaging environment for every child. I genuinely love working with children. They bring so much joy and happiness into life. I know that caring for kids is something I deeply enjoy and excel at. I'm eager to bring my energy, patience, and dedication to a family that's looking for a caring and capable nanny. Hope to hear from you soon!💕

"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)."
