I'm excited to help you in whatever way best suits your needs! Working with children and pets has been a lifelong passion of mine. I enjoy making enriching experiences for your child, taking advantage of local activities and events. I am comfortable with ages 3+. For pets, I am a lifelong cat owner and dog sitter and will work to ensure your animal is as comfortable as possible with me. I also love cleaning and organizing and am happy to do routine or one-time projects.

ken $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Ken. I am originally from Kenya but have lived in Minnesota for 25 years. I have a degree in Chemistry from Mississippi State University. I worked in my field for 16 years and decided to do something different. I am looking to branch out and I believe my laid back and open personality make me easy to get along with. I love goofy comedies and horror movies, I never get tired of watching the " naked gun" franchise. I do not have alot of experience but I believe my laid back persona and positive energy will go a long way :-). I look forward to meeting your amazing family

Clover $19 per hour for 1 child

I would love to be a nanny because I genuinely enjoy working with kids and creating a fun, engaging, and safe environment for them. I’ve always loved working with kids and have hands-on experience through AmeriCorps and dance training, where I learned how to keep children active and happy. I’m currently in college studying kinesiology with a focus on child and adolescent development, so I understand how important movement and play are for kids as they grow. I’m available on weeknights and weekends and would be so excited to create a safe and fun environment for your child while you take some well-deserved time for yourself!

TaNiya $17 per hour for 1 child

I am a 22 year old who recently moved to MN from Alabama. I have always had a passion for working with children. I’ve always been trusted to babysit for any family I know, as well as for my own family. I taught Pre-K last year, and for two years before that I worked with teenagers that struggle with behavioral and developmental challenges. I am CPR certified, as well as trained in professional crisis management. I am well trained to deal with anything that should come my way while babysitting. I have a very kind and warm spirit that most children I’ve worked with tend to get attached to and would love to help out in any way I can.

"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)."
