Xavier $18 per hour for 1 child

I have been taking care of my cousins as long as I can remember. A few years ago I started getting paid to do it. I then realized that is something I can do for extra money. I am a college student just looking for some extra cash to have and make college bills easier.

Ascher $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Ascher 👋 I’ve loved caring for kids for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I split my time between Germany and the U.S., spending many holidays and family gatherings caring for my older cousins’ kids. That passion for caregiving has never left me — from babysitting as a teen, to working with infants and toddlers, to leading after-school and camp programs. I also have personal experience with neonatal infants, as my own daughter was a neonatal baby, giving me a deeper understanding of caring for newborns with specialized needs. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teens. My background includes: • Former 4H camp counselor in Stearns County • Gym coordinator for the Kid Stop after-school program at ROCORI Middle School • Current FIRST Robotics programming mentor for teens in Minneapolis I’m CPR, First Aid, and trauma-informed care certified, and currently taking a Red Cross refresher to stay up to date. Growing up in Germany and traveling back and forth to the U.S. shaped my belief that affordable childcare should be accessible to all families, and my rates reflect those values. I love keeping kids engaged through: 🎨 Arts & crafts | 📚 Reading | 🎲 Games | 🌳 Outdoor fun | 🏀 Sports | 🎵 Music & dance | 🧩 STEM building | 👩‍🍳 Cooking | 🧸 Imaginative play | 🔬 Simple science activities I’d love to support your family and help make your child’s day a little brighter!

Jamie $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! Mom of three looking to care for up to 3 additional children in my home or yours! CPR/First-aid certified and over 15 years of caregiving experience including adults and children with disabilities and seniors. I'm passionate about letting kids lead the way in their daily explorations. We love getting outside and going to parks, libraries, beaches, and museums. Life is a grand adventure and I'd love to take your littles along for the ride. We eat organic, plant-based, are non-vaccinated, and live as natural and holistic as possible. I enjoy hiking, yoga and meditation. I've recently been exploring the bible and getting to know who Jesus is!

Rukia $22 per hour for 1 child

I have over a decade of hands-on childcare experience, beginning in my own household as the oldest of six siblings. From the age of ten, I naturally stepped into a caregiving role, assisting with daily routines, school preparation, meals, and playtime. One of my most formative experiences has been caring for my younger brother, who is autistic. Supporting him has taught me patience, adaptability, and the ability to manage challenging behaviors while creating a nurturing and safe environment. Beyond my immediate family, I have been an active caregiver for my nieces and nephews, including caring for my sister’s newborn twins from birth through their toddler years. This experience provided me with valuable knowledge in handling infants—bottle feeding, diaper changes, nap schedules, and developmental milestones—while balancing the needs of two children at once. Most recently, I worked as a paid nanny for my sister’s two-year-old son. My responsibilities included preparing meals, organizing educational play, maintaining consistent routines, and ensuring his safety and well-being throughout the day. This official nanny role gave me professional-level experience in managing the needs of a curious and energetic toddler. I cared for him until his recent transition into preschool. Altogether, my childcare background spans infants, toddlers, school-aged children, and children with special needs. I bring reliability, warmth, and a strong sense of responsibility to every child I care for, along with the ability to adapt to each child’s unique personality and developmental stage.

"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)."
