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.

Ava $22 per hour for 1 child

I am a dedicated college student and Certified Nursing Assistant with hands-on experience in healthcare, customer service, and childcare. I currently work in an assisted living facility, where I provide direct patient care, assist residents with daily living activities, perform basic wound care, and respond effectively in fast-paced situations as part of a healthcare team. I also have several years of self-employed childcare experience, which strengthened my patience, decision-making, communication, and leadership skills. Additionally, my experience as a retail Guest Advocate helped me develop strong customer service abilities, cash handling skills, organization, and attention to detail. I am actively involved in community service, including volunteering with Partners for World Health, which has reinforced my commitment to helping others. Through my education, certifications, and work experiences, I have become dependable, motivated, and eager to continue learning, growing, and contributing meaningfully within the healthcare field in supportive, compassionate, and collaborative care environments.

Diavian $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Diavian, and caring for children is truly one of my greatest joys. I know how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your child — someone who shows up with love, patience, and consistency every single day. When your little one is with me, they will always feel safe, supported, and truly cared for. I believe in creating a warm, structured, and engaging environment where children can grow with confidence. My goal is to be a positive influence and strong role model, encouraging each child to be curious, kind, and proud of who they are. I love building long-term connections with families, and I treat every child with the same level of care and respect I’d want for my own loved ones. I’m a non-smoker, have reliable transportation, and am comfortable with pets. I’m also known for my great communication, reliability, and ability to multi-task while still giving children the attention and support they deserve. Whether you need a one-time sitter or ongoing care, I’m committed to making your life easier and your child’s day brighter. What Your Child Will Experience • A loving, patient caregiver who celebrates their personality • A safe, positive, and emotionally supportive space • Age-appropriate, stimulating activities and games • Outdoor walks, fresh air, and active play • Books, creativity, hands-on learning, and engaging routines • Healthy meals and snacks prepared with care • Positive reinforcement and gentle guidance My goal is always to keep children active, happy, engaged, and confident. I want them to feel excited when I walk through the door and secure knowing they are with someone who truly cares. You’ll never have to wonder if they’re being treated with love — that’s guaranteed. Thank you for considering me. I can’t wait to become someone your child feels comfortable with and someone you feel completely confident trusting.

India $25 per hour for 1 child

I've been a babysitter since I was fifteen years old, and I love working with children. I love reading with children and helping them learn to read while babysitting. I'm incredibly patient and take the responsibility of caretaking seriously. I look to create a fun environment that ensures each child will follow their usual routine. I'm very adaptable, and can cater to the different needs of children and their families. I'm also able to cook! I'm great with both dogs and cats- I often cat-sit for my roommate, and I've taken care of people's dogs numerous times while they were away.

"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)."
