Danielle $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Danielle. I have spent my entire life around children raising nephews and cousins of all ages - from diapers to adolescents. Growing up in a hispanic household means I also speak Spanish! I can cook, clean and provide a safe ride. I enjoy following a child’s lead during play time but I understand the necessity of boundaries to keep everyone safe.

Jasmine $18 per hour for 1 child

I volunteer in kids ministry for my church every Sunday and I have been doing that for 2-3 years and it is always the highlight of my week. I have gotten to connect with the kids so well and I have tried every age group from infants to middle schoolers, but my favorite are toddlers. I am a very extroverted energetic person, I think that's why I connect with toddlers more. I love caring for people and I would describe myself as a gentle person. I know how to connect with kids right away it has just been a gift God has given me and I want to pursue it for a career. I love crafts and anything artsy which helps with kids, and I love teaching them all of my hobbies which include painting, making bracelets, scrapbooking, and baking. I love cleaning and having a clean area. I want kids in the future so I want to be able to know how to care for them in any way possible so this also gives me great insight.

"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)."
