Aseyah $21 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Aseyah, and I'm a 20-year-old junior in college living in Washington, DC. Growing up in a metropolitan city, I don't drive because I've always relied on public transportation, but I'm dependable, punctual, and experienced navigating the city efficiently. I've been working with Crafty Guardians since I was a junior in high school, giving me several years of hands-on experience caring for children in safe, fun, and engaging environments. I've cared for toddlers, school-aged children, and preteens, helping with homework, meal preparation, arts and crafts, educational games, reading, and outdoor activities. I love encouraging children's creativity through painting, dancing, storytelling, and hands-on learning while creating a positive, nurturing environment where they can thrive. I also have experience providing compassionate, non-medical senior care. I enjoy being a supportive companion and assisting with meal preparation, light housekeeping, errands, organization, medication reminders, and accompanying seniors to appointments using public transportation or rideshare services. I believe everyone deserves patience, kindness, dignity, and dependable care, and I take pride in making a positive difference in people's daily lives. In addition to childcare and senior care, I'm happy to help with light household tasks, laundry, meal prep, organizing, and pet care when needed. Families describe me as responsible, trustworthy, patient, organized, and compassionate. I'm committed to providing reliable, attentive care and treating every family with the same respect and dedication I would give my own. CPR and First Aid certified

Emely $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Emely. I’m a 22 year old working student. I have about 4 years experience in working with kids, especially infants and toddlers. I love working with kids and have a lot of patience for them while they figure out this world. I have experience in Montessori learning and do my best to make sure your child meets their milestones ! I have tons of young energy to run around with kids, I’m first aid AND cpr trained. I’m fluent in Spanish so if youre part of the Latino family or just want your kid to learn a different language, I’m your gal ! I also have college level French, trilingual for the win! Apart from kids I’m also a pet sitter. I’ve got a husky of my own and trust me, no one is crazier than him so you’re looking at a pro in animal taming 😉. I’ve taken care of a few exotic pets (reptiles and birds) but on average I’m mostly taking care of dogs, cats, fish and rodents. I love all animals and have no phobias. Overall I’m a super kind, genuine and bubbly girl. I love all kinds of people welcome all kinds of cultures into my life. I’m a SAFE space for you and your family, hate is never tolerated. All love here <3 I would love to get to know you and your loved one and give you a caring, helping hand to make your life just a little easier :)

"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)."
