Olivia Crystal
$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 🥰🙌

Hi, my name is Ken. I am originally from Kenya but have lived in Minnesota for 25 years. I have a degree in Chemistry from Mississippi State University. I worked in my field for 16 years and decided to do something different. I am looking to branch out and I believe my laid back and open personality make me easy to get along with. I love goofy comedies and horror movies, I never get tired of watching the " naked gun" franchise. I do not have alot of experience but I believe my laid back persona and positive energy will go a long way :-). I look forward to meeting your amazing family

I'm excited to help you in whatever way best suits your needs! Working with children and pets has been a lifelong passion of mine. I enjoy making enriching experiences for your child, taking advantage of local activities and events. I am comfortable with ages 3+. For pets, I am a lifelong cat owner and dog sitter and will work to ensure your animal is as comfortable as possible with me. I also love cleaning and organizing and am happy to do routine or one-time projects.

Melissa Hopkins
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello everyone! My name is Melissa, and I am very new to this site. You can call me nanny Mcphee! I am not kidding when I say this! I have this strong internal mother instinct that naturally drives me to create a safe, fun, and loving atmosphere for children in my presence. I was very fortunate to gain a wealth of experience working with children in all age groups in a multitude of different school settings. I worked for Spokane schools district 81 (Spokane Washington) as an Instructional aid/float classified substitute. In this position, I worked with children with special needs, children who needed behavioral intervention, and I worked side by side with teachers in an array of different classroom settings. My experience does not end here, I also worked as an Education Assistant and had the pleasure to work with students from age groups K-12 in a clinical/learning environment at Prairie Care and I worked as a lead teach in a daycare center for one year.. My personality is very exuberant and child-like. Most people would say I have an innocence to me that awakens my inner child. It's no surprise that children tend to warm up to me very quickly. Throughout my personal life, I have played the role of a nanny or babysitter for many of my family members, neighbors, and friends. I love animals so much and I have cared for cats and dogs from previous pet-owner experience. My number one goal in life, is to achieve happiness through helping other people. What better way can I achieve this none other than putting a smile on a person's face and filling their heart with laughter. Lastly, I graduated from college with an AAS, AA degree, I hold a Medical Assistant certification from Spokane Community College and I completed a year of college credits from Eastern Washington University with a focus on education and pedagogy. At the moment, I am available as an on-call nanny. I currently work as a school bus driver which takes up my schedule throughout the week. I can always work with families and be flexible with scheduling.

I am a college graduate who worked for many years in a non-profit and for two years worked at a drop in daycare evenings and weekends for fun because I love kids and they needed a hand. I am a married mom with a wonderful rescue dog. I am flexible in what I'm looking for. Either full time or maybe some part-time jobs that will add up. I'm great with kids and adore babies and would love to Help with yours. . I have recent experience with kids of all ages and I have great references list that you can speak to personally. I hope you will have time to meet first via a phone interview and later in person. I love going for walks and to the playground and will follow your direction 100% in terms of how I help raise your baby. I look forward to meeting you :). PS I have experience with special needs including administering EpiPens, baby nebulizers, insulin injections.

"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)."
