Ellie $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Ellie and I’m 22 years old. I am looking to find a family I can help out full-time while I plan to go back to school online! I strive to create a safe, fun, and kind learning environment for all the children I care for. I love to go on adventures like the children’s museums, parks, and do arts & crafts. I love helping children reach milestones and grow! My experience: I started babysitting at the age of 13 years old. I nannied over the summers for the same family with children the ages of 4, 6, and 7. I also nannied for a few other families with children ages 4 months through 5 years. I was an infant teacher at a childcare center while I attended school and a toddler teacher while at home. I currently work as a lead toddler teacher at an early childhood learning center. More info: •Bachelor's Degree in Child Development and Family Studies from the University of Minnesota State, Mankato. •CPR certified •First Aide certified •Trained in areas like safe sleep, choking, and anaphylactic shock.

Aisha $16 per hour for 1 child

I’m 19 years old, currently in college, and looking for a full-time caregiver position for the summer. My background includes customer service, which taught me patience, clear communication, and how to stay calm under pressure. I’ve also volunteered with children and helped care for my younger brother, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, playing, homework help, bedtime routines, and daily responsibilities. While I have less formal experience with seniors, I’m very comfortable assisting with errands, light housekeeping, meal prep, and companionship thanks to my patient and empathetic personality. I also love pets and can help with walking, feeding, and playing. I have a cat of my own, so I’m very comfortable around animals, and I don't mind taking care of dogs either. I’m happy to handle household services like light cleaning, laundry, dishes, and organizing, skills I use while living on my own in college. My patience, reliability, warmth, adaptability, strong communication, energy, and eagerness to learn make me a great caregiver who will treat your loved ones and pets like my own family.

"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)."
