Em $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Em, and I’m a calm, compassionate, and creative caregiver offering child care and household support. I love working with kids and have 9+ years experience caring for children ages 2–7, including caring for multiple children at once. I also have experience supporting neurodivergent and special-needs children and young adults. I am a graduate from the University of Minnesota, where I studied Communications, Digital Media Studies, and Filmmaking! I am also pursuing an additional degree in Early Childhood Education (Birth - Grade 3) in the summer of 2026. I’m soft-spoken, patient, and especially good with children who like being spoken to thoughtfully and with respect. I’m very artsy: drawing, coloring, and crafts are some of my favorite ways to bond, connect, and create a joyful environment. In addition to childcare, I can cook, clean, and help with household organization and errands. I’m gluten-free myself, so I know all the tastiest gluten-free snacks and meals, but I’m comfortable cooking for any diet or preference. I also have lifelong experience caring for cats and dogs, and have a kitty of my own named Mickey. If you’re looking for a steady, gentle, and compassionate presence in your home, I’m your gal! I currently work at an early children’s development center and have a PCA, CPR & AED (BLS), First Aid - Pediatric, Child, & Adult certification.

Maria $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Maria and I am 23 years old. I just graduated college from the University of Minnesota with a degree in Communications! In my free time I enjoy hanging out with friends, traveling, playing volleyball and meeting new people. I have 3-5 years of babysitting experience for family and friends with kids ages 1-10. I have 2 years of nannying experience with kids ages 5-14. I enjoy working most with kids who are above the age of 3 but have experience with toddlers as well! I am CPR certified and have a reliable vehicle that can hold up to 5 people. I enjoy playing with kids, taking them to do fun activities, helping them with different development skills, watching them grow, playing games and sports with them. I am more than willing to bring children to and from sports camps or summer camps. Dogs are the pet I’m most comfortable with, maximum of 2 in a single household. I am allergic to cats. I am willing to perform other household tasks such as dishes, laundry, cleaning if need be. My rates will reflect those additional tasks on top of the childcare. I am looking for a friendly family who is looking for care for the summer as I am moving out of the country in the fall. I am patient, friendly, caring, supportive and will put your children’s safety as my top priority. I am very social and have an outgoing personality. I enjoy getting to see kids grow and enjoy different activities.

"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)."
