Nia $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Nia, I’m mom to an amazing 3.5 year old. I have 10+ years of childcare experience. My most recent nanny experience are this and last summer for an awesome 1-2 year old! And prior to that I’ve cared for kiddos aged 6-12. And of course my daughter’s full 3.5 years of life. We love to be outside, do crafts, and be involved in fun events in our area. We love going to the park, library, lake, etc. I am looking for something more long term, caring for one to two children. I am open to bringing kiddos to activities they may have, helping with schoolwork, making light meals, light housekeeping, laundry, walking the dog, etc. That is all included in my listed rate. I have a clean driving record and background. We are fully vaccinated against COVID, and up to date on all vaccines. (My daughter will be with me when she is not in preschool.) Can’t wait to hear from you! Thanks

Paige $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Paige and no matter what your families needs are, not only will I do my best to fulfill them but I also will try and go above and beyond to exceed those and make sure your family is always taken care of in any way I’m able to provide support. I have for the last two years been nannying for a family who has a teenager with AuSD, and have loved every minute of it. I still am currently working with them and plan to continue, although now that school is in session I’m only working the afternoons (Monday through Thursday) into the evenings until summer schedule resumes. Prior to working with my current family I actually was working with a client for a year who had cerebral palsy and was with him for a year. Even though the last handful of years has been with a little bit of an older clientele, I have about 11 years or so of experience with all range of age kiddos from about 3/ 4 months through the older teens and even early adulthood. A little bit about me, I love anything having to do with music and anything creative really. I absolutely love animals (sometimes more than people 🤪) and I often am spending my time painting, exploring and doing amateur photography, cooking, or hanging out with my 3 legged rescue dog. Would love to connect and see if I may be a good fit for your family and if we all get along, I’m just happy to help along the way. Wishing you all the best of luck on your respective searches for your families and I look forward to hearing from you all!

Maria $19 per hour for 1 child

I have been a professional nanny in Argentina and California for the past 15 years and I currently live in Minneapolis. A little bit of my background: I was a full time nanny for infants and toddlers for years and absolutely loved the experience. I’m very energetic, caring and flexible. Kids always have a good time under my supervision. I speak English and Spanish (At the moment I’m starting my own company as a Spanish Content Creator). I’m a non-smoker and have a clean driving record. I am also a dog owner so I would definitely not mind being around furry friends of all types and shapes.

"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)."
