Chloe $15 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Chloe and I will be graduating with the 2026 senior class this May 7th, so although my schedule is a little tight I’ll be available more in the next couple months. I volunteer weekly with my church, helping watch children infant-7th grade. I also have three years experience with babysitting. My main goal is to be able to provide a safe and supportive environment for not only the children but also the parents. I’m able to help with cooking/meal prep, household chores, homework, any bedtime/wake up routines, and above all help the parents know their child is in good hands. If given the opportunity I would love to help make things a little less stressful, God bless!

Britney $12 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Britney; I'm 19 years old and a student at Missouri State University in Springfield! I'm offering services like babysitting, pet sitting, and household services. I've been babysitting for my family and family friends since I was about 15 years old. I usually spent the most time with kids 5-9 years and older, but I have had no issues with smaller or bigger kids. I was an active tutor in High School for Kindergarten, 1st grade, and 3rd grade classrooms as well. Aside from babysitting, I have also been in charge of general house sitting too for much longer. I love crafts, music (trumpet and piano), cleaning and tutoring. I'm also up for walks outside, household assistance, and cooking! I'm fine with any pets but I have the most experience with dogs and cats of any variety (my family has owned a ton over the years). I have zero allergies or restrictions.

"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)."
