Janiya $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi all! My name is Janiya. Im a recent college graduate. While still searching for a career in my field, Id like to use my free time to help families care for their children. I am offering child services. I absolutely adore and respect children. In every child I see a glimpse of myself because i was once a kid, too. As a person who’s an empath, Im highly aware of emotions and try my best to understand others so that I can connect with them in order to offer help. Ive babysat many younger family members since I was in elementary school! I also have experience in caring for children ages 1-5 at my church. And ive been a camp counselor in the past for children ages 5-10. My responsibilities have included maintaining personal hygiene, keeping them occupied with arts and craft, ensuring safety, providing meals, nap time, and offering emotional support. Ultimately I wish to continue being a compassionate and present person to respectful and polite kids. I do wish to have children of my own soon so, caring for each child as if they were my own is an innate skill that I carry.

Asuma $30 per hour for 1 child

About Asuma Hi! My name is Asuma and I am currently a neuroscience research technician and a member of the U.S. Army Reserves. I offer childcare, tutoring, and household support services. Caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. As the oldest daughter in a large family and a mother to an amazing teenager, I grew up helping care for younger siblings and relatives. I also have over 11 years of experience caring for children ranging from infants to teenagers. In addition to childcare, I provide tutoring for students from elementary school through college in subjects such as math, biology, and chemistry. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Biology with a minor in Mathematics and enjoy helping students build confidence in learning and problem-solving. My childcare responsibilities have included helping with homework, preparing meals, creative activities, transportation, and maintaining a structured and safe environment for children. I enjoy encouraging curiosity through reading, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, and fun learning moments. I speak four languages and have reading knowledge of two others, which has helped me connect with families from diverse backgrounds. Outside of work, I enjoy bike rides in nature, cooking and experimenting with recipes, volunteering with community organizations, and continuing my training as a beginner in Taekwondo. Families often describe me as dependable, calm, and attentive. I take pride in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. While I don’t yet have extensive experience caring for pets, I am open to learning as long as safety is prioritized.

Kayla $21 per hour for 1 child

I’m a single mom with my sweet 10 month old daughter looking for the right family to join us on our journey! By training, I’ve been a naturopathic doctor for the past 6 years. When my husband passed away unexpectedly while I was pregnant with our baby girl, I had to step away from work in order to show up for our daughter in the way I felt she needed. As I’m waiting to feel like we’re both ready for me to return to my career, I’m looking for part-time nanny work to help support the two of us in a way that allows me to be with her. Grief and single motherhood, as difficult as they have been, have opened my heart up to be a more empathetic, more mindful, and more patient human. I’m looking for a family that values a natural, conscious style of caregiving for their child. We are a screen-free, toy-limited, non-toxic family that prioritizes creativity, nature & health. We cook together, spend time outside in the dirt & grass, go on hikes, and read together. My professional background in naturopathic medicine not only certifies me in CPR and basic & naturopathic first aid but also gives me extensive knowledge of nutrition to prepare homemade meals for your child - I believe this niche makes up for my limited paid childcare experience! I’d also be a great fit for a family planning to have a second child that would like their first exposed to a younger baby. My daughter already loves to play with kids! I know how hard it is to leave your child in someone else’s care during such critical years. My priority as a nanny is to give your child a loving, caring presence and safe, bonded connection while you’re away. Ideal age is 6 months to 3 years old.

"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)."
