Hi, I hope you and your family are well! I have worked with children for more than 10 years and can truly say I have a passion for it. My experience includes working with ages as young as infants just coming home all the way up to 10yr olds. I have experience working in a school teaching Pre-K students early literacy skills to set them up for a bright future. I would be more than happy to continue using those skills to help set your little ones on the path to Academic success! It is never too early to start! I have worked with a few children with autism, helped with potty training, and more. My home is full of pets so I’m happy to work if you have some too. I am used to working in a classroom so multiple children is not a problem. Some activities I enjoy doing are playing games, reading books, doing crafts, baking and more.

Very kind and even tempered. She was great with my lil one.

My name is Aysia, and I am a student at Morgan State University. I am seeking opportunities to provide childcare and household services. I have extensive experience as a babysitter, having cared for children of all ages since the age of eleven. My responsibilities have included transportation to and from school, meal preparation, housekeeping, homework assistance, and overnight care during date nights. I take pleasure in engaging children through activities such as dancing and ensuring their comfort. Additionally, I have no animal allergies and can provide assistance with pets. Furthermore, I am capable of handling cleaning and laundry tasks.

Aysia was fantastic with our daughter. She brought so much energy and joy. She ran around with her, played nonstop, and really entered her world of imaginative play. Our daughter connected with her immediately and was genuinely sad when it was time for her to leave. We’re grateful for her support and would absolutely love to have her back.

Hey families!!, I’m 26 years old. I have 3 years of professional childcare experience and over 5 years of caring for children overall. I’m fully certified for infant/toddler and preschool care and I’m CPR certified. I’m currently taking a break from working in daycare trying to focus on my collage career but I still truly love caring for children and would love to support a family more personally as a nanny. I’m an artist and I previously ran my own children’s painting business called Juice Box and Paint, where I hosted fun sip-and-paint style activities for kids ages 2–13. I’m very patient, and naturally great with kids. I also love nature and gardening, and enjoy getting kids outside to explore and learn. I drive, cook, clean, can do hair, and I’m very comfortable with pets (I have a dog myself). I’m currently fully available and open to being a live-in nanny, travel nanny, or in-home nanny. I really enjoy creating a warm, safe, and loving environment where children can learn, feel supported, and just be themselves! Thanks for reading ❤️

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
