Avery $14 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Avery, and I am a 20-year-old sophomore at the University of Tennessee. I am studying marketing and minoring in digital media, and I love being creative. I was a competitive dancer for 10+ years and played competitive soccer year-round. Throughout my entire time in high school, I was always nannying. My most recent family had two twin six-year-olds, an eight-year-old, and a ten-year-old, so being able to keep up with the energetic life that kids live is nothing new for me. I have nannied for six other families over the summer and school years and am excited to continue doing what I love. I am first aid certified, trained in CPR, have a reliable and safe Honda HRV, am responsible, and most importantly, have experience. I enjoy being around kids because I love to feel like a kid again, and being able to teach, play, laugh, and explore with your kids would bring so much joy to my life. I look forward to contributing positively to your family’s dynamic and providing the utmost care for your kids.

"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)."
