Jaylyn $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello Families, My name is Jaylyn , and I’m excited to share a bit about myself as I apply for summer babysitting and nanny opportunities. I am a trained dance educator and guest teacher at a private school, where I work primarily with Kindergarten–Lower School students. I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance from The Ohio State University and have over eight years of experience choreographing and three years of experience teaching children ages 5–18 in both school and studio settings. Through my work in schools and dance programs, I’ve developed strong skills in classroom management, child engagement, and creating safe, structured, and joyful environments. I love incorporating creativity, movement, and fun learning activities into children’s daily routines, while also understanding the importance of consistency, patience, and clear communication. Some of my qualifications and strengths include: • Experience as a guest teacher and substitute teacher in public and private schools • Background in dance education, creative movement, and youth development • Strong organizational and time-management skills • Calm, patient, and nurturing personality • Reliable, punctual, and responsible • Comfortable assisting with homework, meals, bedtime routines, and light household support Families often describe me as warm, attentive, energetic, and trustworthy. I truly enjoy building positive relationships with children and helping them feel safe, supported, and confident. I would love the opportunity to support your family this summer and provide dependable, compassionate care for your children.

Camila $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Camila, I’m from Colombia and currently studying in the U.S. I was an Au Pair for over two years in Alexandria, VA, where I cared for two wonderful kids (now 8 and 10). That experience helped me learn a lot about supporting family routines, keeping kids engaged, and creating a safe and happy environment for them. For almost a year now, I’ve been caring for toddlers and babies. I truly enjoy spending time with little ones — playing, reading, helping them learn, and being part of their daily routines. I always try to create a calm, fun, and loving space where children feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. I’m responsible, patient, flexible, and easy to communicate with. I understand how important it is for parents to feel at ease with their childcare, and I treat every child with the same kindness and attention I would want for my own family. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and get to know your little one.

Nakoryia $27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Capitol Heights, MD

Hi! I’m an Atlanta native with lots of experience caring for kids and pets. I’ve babysat for teachers, my nephew, and other families, and I recently worked as a teaching fellow for middle school students. I love getting to know kids, helping them learn, and keeping them engaged. I’ve also worked as a summer camp counselor for multiple summers, including travel-based programs, which strengthened my ability to adapt to new environments and manage group dynamics. In addition, I’ve served as a peer mentor for three years, supporting younger students through guidance and encouragement. These experiences have deepened my understanding of children’s needs and how to support them with patience, structure, and attentiveness. I’m patient, observant, and good at matching kids energy, whether they’re super active or a little shy. I also volunteered at a Dementia Care Center, where I used art to connect with older adults, so creativity is a big part of who I am. My cultural awareness is another aspect of my personality. I enjoy arts and crafts, staying active, and practicing my Spanish (I’m an intermediate speaker). I also grew up with a Pomeranian-Papillon mix for over 10 years, so I’m totally comfortable around friendly pets! Finally, I am more than willing run errands, though I don't have a car, do light cleaning, light cooking, and light laundry.

"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

"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
