$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Monica I love children, I have experience with infants, toddlers, kindergarten, primary and special education, I love children of all ages and I like to do activities with them like reading, painting,craft, play game, help with homework and teach .

Monica currently babysits my 8mo daughter 5 days a week while I am at work. When she initially arrived for the in-person interview, I could tell she had not only great experience with kids but is also very empathetic and safety-conscious, which are two very important traits I believe for a person taking care of an infant. She lets me know if she has any concerns and updates me about anything “new” in regards to my daughter . She is also very punctual and dependable; she is very interactive, engaging my daughter with toys, books, music, and conversation. I feel confident when I leave the house in the morning, knowing my daughter is in caring in capable hands. I am so grateful to have found her on Urban Sitters !

Hi! I’m a current master’s student at Boston University with several years of experience working with children. I’ve babysat for families and also worked with younger kids as a preschool assistant (ages 3–5) and as a summer camp counselor at Steve & Kate’s with children ages 4–12. I love engaging kids through crafts, sports, and creative games, and I make sure they’re having fun in a safe environment. I’m also CPR, First Aid, and lifeguard certified, and comfortable around both dogs and cats.

I’m a caring, dependable, and patient person with a natural love for helping others—especially children and animals. I’ve had hands-on experience caring for kids of all ages through babysitting and volunteering in after-school programs, where I learned the importance of patience, creativity, and keeping children engaged in fun and safe activities. I’m also comfortable caring for pets, from walking dogs to making sure they’re well-fed and loved. In addition, I’m experienced with household tasks like light cleaning, organizing, meal prep, and maintaining a tidy space. My nurturing personality, strong sense of responsibility, and attention to detail make me someone families can truly rely on to provide a warm, safe, and positive environment for both their loved ones and their home.

Booked by 1 family in East Boston, MA

Hello! My name is Sahra. I am a Boston native studying at Northeastern University. I offer child care, pet-care, and household services. I’ve been professionally babysitting for 4 years now. Prior to that I’ve worked at a preschool. I’ve also babysat for family members and family friends practically my whole life. I don’t have my drivers licenses, so picking kids up from school maybe a little difficult, but if the school is walking distance, I can certainly do that! I can also help with homework and tutoring (I currently tutor high school students). I’m also available to cook, clean, and run errands. Pet care - I have a cat of my own, so anything cat care I would love to help out with!

"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."

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)."

Eric D., dad of two
