Guin $21 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Guinevere (or Guin for short), and I am a 21-year-old Senior at the George Washington University pursuing a double BA in Journalism and Photography. I'm originally from Chicago and currently live in the Foggy Bottom area. I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old and love working with kids. I was an overnight camp counselor for 2 years in Newaygo, MI and learned so much from that experience. As someone who grew up with sleep anxiety as a kid, I learned how to calm kids down from panic attacks and use different soothing techniques to help them get to bed. After my time at Newaygo, I worked as a day camp counselor and art teacher at Lillstreet Arts Center in Chicago for 4 years. I have a background in art, singing, theatre, dance and more. I would love to do crafts with your kiddos and help them find new ways to express themselves! I would be happy to teach music to any little one who has an interest in learning as well :) I love to cook (and I'd like to say I'm pretty good) and would be happy to make meals for your kiddos. I love pets of all kinds and I look forward to making connections with your lovely families/communities! Please feel free to reach out with any questions. Best wishes, Guin MacLowry

Maty $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Maty, and I’m a high school senior about to graduate. I grew up helping care for my younger siblings and nieces, and I used to live with my grandparents, which gave me early experience with both child and senior care. I’m kind, reliable, and love creating a safe, fun space for kids, whether that means helping with homework, storytelling, or outdoor play. I’ve also helped my mom with senior caregiving, including cooking, companionship, and errands. I’m bilingual in French and English, comfortable with dogs, and happy to help with light housework or tutoring as well.

Nakoryia $27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in College Park, 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

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)."
