Esiyah $27 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Esiyah , and I am a passionate, nurturing, and dependable caregiver with a well-rounded background in childcare, education, and family support services. I bring years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, as well as providing companionship to seniors and loving care for family pets. Professionally, I’ve worked as both a Youth Program Coordinator and an Assistant Teacher at a Head Start program, where I worked closely with children ages 2-4 and 4-5. In these roles, I created engaging activities that supported their learning, social-emotional development, and creativity in a safe, loving environment. In addition to early childhood care, I also served as a Middle School Reading and Writing Teacher, where I had the privilege of helping students excel academically. I’m proud to share that 85% of my students passed their state testing under my instruction — a testament to my effective teaching strategies, excellent test-taking skills, and my ability to truly connect with students wherever they are in their educational journey. Beyond the classroom, I have helped raise and care for infants and or younger children within my own family, often providing overnight and daytime care while family members worked for severely months until the child reached an older age. During my college years, I started my own tutoring and babysitting service, offering support to single mothers and married couples in my community. The families I worked with consistently praised my commitment to their children’s growth, safety, and emotional well-being, as well as the genuine love I bring to every caregiving relationship. I am patient, creative, dependable, and passionate about creating nurturing, enriching environments where children feel valued and supported. I’m also very experienced in light household tasks, meal preparation, organizing schedules and routine, and pet care. I would be honored to bring my skills, heart, and experience into your home, supporting your family and helping your little ones thrive.

Olivia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Olivia. I’m 25 years old. I’m trying to find a summer nanny job as I’m due in early August. I would love to come back afterwards. I prefer developing relationships and keeping consistency. I have two years studying psychology in hopes of working and helping children in the future. I’ve been working in childcare for about 3 years, primarily with toddlers-prek. I’ve babysat and nannied throughout my highschool and early college years. I’ve traveled with families and have experience working with children on the spectrum. Working in childcare as a lead teacher, I’m used to being with 7-10 kids by myself, with the a whole day of planned of activities. I like to stay busy! I am CPR/first aid certified. I have Nursing Assistant experience as well. I have a one year old myself and would love to take her along to enjoy the activities and to have a playmate or two! I’m very artistic, creative, adventurous and a huge nature person. If I can, I will be outside! I love arts and crafts, going on adventures, and seeing the spark/confidence of kids when they learn. I’m not a technology person as I believe it depletes real learning that comes from experience, play and social skills. I’m willing to do household tasks, cook, help with school and potty training. Let’s chat and we can discuss! Ps. I am not Covid vaccinated nor my daughter-not willing to change that. Thanks for reading this far! I hope you reach out and get to know me further 🥰🙌

Myshalaya $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name’s Shalaya, and I’m an 18-year-old mom with a beautiful daughter of my own. I’m fun, caring, and super patient — especially with energetic kids! I currently work as a PCA, so I have experience helping others and making sure people are safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your child with someone, so I treat every kid like my own — with love, attention, and fun. I enjoy doing activities, playing games, going outside (when the weather’s nice), and keeping kids busy in a good way. I’m available during the day while my daughter’s in school (9am-3pm) and some evenings if needed. I’d love to help another parent out and make sure your child is in safe, positive hands! I DONT DRIVE !

Lello $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lello, I'm 20, and I'm a rising junior at Northwestern University but I'm originally from Champlin, MN. I'm offering mainly child care, but I am also open to pet care (cat-sitting specifically), senior care (cooking and driving to appointments primarily), and household services. I have a lot of caretaking experience for people of all ages :) I currently work as a Home Health Aide for 4 senior citizens with behavioral issues and have also been a caretaker for my grandmother who lives with me. Since I was around 12, I have been relied on by aunts and uncles to be the primary babysitter to all the kids in my extended family. I love my little cousins, I love kids in general, and they tend to love me! My responsibilities for them have included watching, cooking, and homework help for infants, toddlers, and kids. I have had a license for 4 years and I can drive clients to and from appointments, school, activities, practice, etc.

"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)."
