Alicia $18 per hour for 1 child

Perfect! Based on that, here’s a draft introduction for your UrbanSitter profile: ⸻ Hello! I’m [AliciA], originally from Kingston, Jamaica, but living in sliver springs Aspenhill area now and I bring a warm Caribbean spirit to everything I do. I’m a certified CNA with extensive experience working with special needs children as well as typically developing kids. Back in Jamaica, I was a preschool teacher and I also work as a nurse, so I bring both professional and nurturing care. I love reading, music, and, most importantly, spending time with children. Their laughter, curiosity, and innocent charm are truly special to me. I’m also a proud mom of two, and I understand the importance of providing a safe, fun, and loving environment. I look forward to caring for your little ones! ⸻ Feel free to tweak it or let me know if there’s anything else you’d like to add!

Nana $27 per hour for 1 child

I have nearly 20 years of experience working with children, including 12 years as a neonatal nurse in the intensive care unit in my home country of Georgia. Since moving to the United States, I’ve been fortunate to work with several wonderful families, caring for children of all ages, but my true passion is caring for newborns and infants. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your most precious little ones. As a mom myself, I treat every child I care for as if they were my own. I strive to create a special bond with the children I work with, offering them love, comfort, and the attention they need to thrive. In addition to my caring nature, I bring professional expertise as a former neonatal nurse. I know how to handle the unique needs of infants, which can provide peace of mind—especially for first-time moms. Families I’ve worked with have described me as dependable, responsible, punctual, and organized, and I take pride in being someone they can always rely on ( I can provide references upon request). If you’re looking for a nanny who will care for your little one with love, kindness, and expertise, I would love to speak with you.

"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)."
