Hello! My name is Caitlin and I am a recent college graduate of Howard University on a Pre Med Track, attempting to become a Pediatrician in the future. I am amazing with kids I started a reading club for younger kids in my community back home in Michigan, I also have tutored elementary, middle, and high school kids in my community for many years in mathematics and English. Along with this I play two instruments, the piano and string bass, where I’ve competed and played for numerous charities. I am an avid volunteer and love to help others! I grew up babysitting my neighbors’ kids back in my hometown in Michigan. I’ve always been great with kids of all ages and I am very responsible, respectful, and dutiful in my work! Aside from babysitting, I have also worked as an American Red Cross certified lifeguard and swim instructor with CPR & AED certifications! In this field I have worked with children as young as 6 months! I believe that I am more than capable of ensuring your child’s safety!

Kids immediately loved her and she did a great job. They felt happy and safe.

Hi, I'm responsible, punctual, and very caring. I do not drink or smoke at all. I have over 10 years of experience with children, ranging from newborns to teenagers. I love introducing the children I babysit to the different languages I speak. Arts and crafts, outside play, walking to the library, games and reading are activities I enjoy when babysitting. I am excited to meet you and your children!

She was wonderful. Our little one was being a bit moody and I thought it might be a screen night, but she got him to calm down and play, which was outstanding! By the time we came home our little one was happy and asked to see her again.

Hi there! My name is Victoria and i am passionate about childcare. I have an extensive history of caring for babies, toddlers and preteens. I am fun to be with and I don’t run out of fun activities to do with kids. I love taking walks, baking, drawing and music. I have worked with parents and I understand the importance of having extra help with children. I love the ability to create a safe space for children while parents get some alone time to work, rest, or have fun. I am also excellent in helping with developmental transitions for toddlers and I can be of great help with assignments, science projects and after school tutoring. Your children are in great hands!

We just met Victoria for an intake meeting and she’s wonderful! We are really looking forward to working with her.

"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

"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)."
