Tiara $25 per hour for 1 child

⸻ Hi! My name is Tiara, and I’m offering child care, senior care, and household support services. I’ve been babysitting since I was 15 and have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged children—including twins. My responsibilities have included school drop-offs and pick-ups, arts and crafts, tutoring, meal preparation, and even helping with dance lessons. In addition to childcare, I work as a household assistant and am happy to help with cooking, cleaning, organizing, and running errands. I also have hands-on experience caring for my own grandparents and am comfortable assisting with senior care needs such as meal preparation, transportation to appointments, and companionship.

Dannah $17 per hour for 1 child

I am 37 years old, I majored in english and literature so I love writing and reading and I will definitely read to kids. I am quiet, friendly and very understanding. I am helpful and will take my time with kids to give them the best care ever. I have no kids of my own, but I've babysat my younger siblings, nieces, nephews and of course other kids. I love to babysit because it is so beautiful to see the different personalities of such little beings, I love the different ways babies communicate when they can't even talk yet because it shows how intelligent children are even at such tender ages. I love teaching them and I just love taking care of them... Thanks for considering my profile, Dannah. Bless

Luceny $25 per hour for 1 child

As a caregiver, I find immense joy in nurturing the younger generation, including my siblings and other children. I firmly believe that children are the future of our society, and it is our collective responsibility to provide them with love, kindness, patience, and care. With ten years of experience in the field, I have had the privilege of working for June Care. Initially, I assisted my family as a younger child, and as the family grew, I continued to support them. Additionally, I have helped out my neighbors as well. My training includes CPR, equipping me to handle any emergency situations that may arise. Furthermore, I possess bilingual skills, experience with security and safety, meal preparation, homework assistance, and animal care.

"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)."
