Hi! I’m a dedicated and experienced nanny currently working with a family during the week. I truly enjoy caring for children and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for them to grow and feel comfortable. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each child’s needs. I love engaging kids in creative activities, helping with routines, and supporting families in any way I can. I’m available for extra babysitting on weekends and on weekdays after 6 PM. I’d love to help your family with reliable and loving care! Feel free to reach out — I look forward to meeting you 😊

Raquel was very kind and engaging with our daughter. She was professional, punctual, and helpful.

Shana $30 per hour for 1 child

I’m an experienced nanny and caregiver with over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and school-age children, including children with autism and cerebral palsy. Families appreciate my calm, nurturing personality, strong sense of responsibility, and ability to keep children engaged, safe, and happy. I’m also comfortable helping with household support such as meal prep, light cleaning, organizing, errands, and maintaining routines that help families run smoothly. As a mother myself, I understand the importance of patience, structure, and creating a warm environment where children feel supported, loved, and encouraged to grow.

Hello, My name is Izzy and I have been nannying for over a decade. I have A LOT of young nieces and nephews but beyond that, I’ve been working in childcare since I was a teenager. I like to make it a point early on to let my families know that I’m always willing to work on price points, my priority is a comfortable arrangement for everyone. I’ve volunteered and worked at a few summer camps in Los Angeles, I have experience nannying children from age 0-11, including special needs, over night stays, school pickup, meal prep, tutoring, light housework, multi child households, and many other aspects of childcare. I’m looking for part time work but I am super flexible! Ideally, I would love to find one family that I work for weekly with a set schedule.

I'm happy to recommend Izzy because she's reliable, always left the house neat and got the kids to bed on time. My girls would recommend her because she's funny, reads good stories and loves to play games. She was a wonderful help to our family.

Booked by 2 families in District Heights, MD

Hi there! I am a 23 year old female student who is very passionate about working with children and animals. I recently moved back to Massachusetts to return to school. I have 5+ years of experience working with children as a babysitter, and have also held positions as a camp counsellor at both day and overnight camps. I am comfortable babysitting multiple children at a time, helping with schoolwork, household chores, cooking, and pet care. I, myself, have dog sat and been the owner of multiple small animals. I am patient, outgoing, talkative, easy going, and I like to have fun while still being able to ensure that children follow rules and get tasks done. I have been certified in CPR and lifesaving, and did partake in a babysitting course during my youth, but would be happy to have all of these certifications updated. I was also certified as an EMT during college, which has since lapsed but left me with many useful skills.

"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."

"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)."
