ariana $9 per hour for 1 child

I’m a responsible and caring babysitter who truly enjoys helping children learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and positive environment. I love to paint, read, and listen to violin music—activities I often share with kids to inspire their creativity and imagination. Families can count on me to be patient, dependable, and engaging. I take pride in creating a warm and nurturing atmosphere where children feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also great with pets, infants, and seniors, and I bring the same level of patience, kindness, and attention to everyone I care for, making me a trustworthy fit for families of all ages and needs.

Ca’Mari $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Ca’Mari, and I am a college student at Metropolitan community college with a strong passion for working with children and helping them feel safe, supported, and cared for. My long term goal is to become a pediatric oncology nurse. I currently work at the YMCA in a before and after school care position, where I get to work with children, keep them engaged, and create a safe and positive environment for them. I also had the opportunity to complete a one-day internship at University Health in an OBGYN setting, where I was able to see healthcare professionals work directly with patients and learn more about compassionate patient care. I would describe myself as patient, caring, responsible, and easy to communicate with. I’m someone who genuinely enjoys being around children, learning their personalities, keeping them entertained, and making sure they feel comfortable. I’m also dependable and take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s child very seriously. My goal is for every family I work with to feel confident that their child is in good hands.

"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."

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)."
