Natalie $17 per hour for 1 child

I am a sophomore at NC State University and home for the summer! I used to be a children's tennis instructor for 3 years in high school and have had occasional babysitting positions in the meantime. I love being interactive with kids and helping in whatever way I can!

Lina $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Lina, and I am 20 years old. I recently moved to the Denver, NC area, and am excited to get connected with local families! I love taking care of kids especially under the age of 10 years old as I believe those are the most important years for nurturing and learning. I have about 2 years overall of childcare experience; one year assisting children in the age range of 8-12 in dance class at my old dance studio, and about one year babysitting my younger cousins (ages 8, 6, and 2). I genuinely enjoy creating a positive and safe environment for kids through physical, creative, and educational activities. I am able to help with additional activities such as light housekeeping, meal prep, and pet care. I also have my own transportation and am comfortable with pets. I take my job very seriously and am CPR certified. I love spending time outside, going on walks, crafts, and dancing! I'm available for one-time, part-time, or full-time babysitting, weekend help, and part-time or full-time nannying with 24/7 availability and flexibility. I am happy to relieve any anxieties parents may have with extra introductions and sending updates throughout our time together. If you or someone you know in the area is looking for a babysitter or nanny, feel free to reach out - I’d love to chat and see if l'd be a good fit for your family!

Booked by 66 families in High Shoals, NC

Hi! My name is Hope. I've worked in the field of childcare for 11 years and as a nanny for 9 years. As a nanny I take a montessori approach to the education & general care of a child. I enjoy creating fun, intellectually stimulating activities for children & infants. I also enjoy taking children to parks, museums, libraries & festivals to learn about the world around them. I babysit in my free time. As a babysitter I enjoy entertaining children though games, reading, outdoor activities, etc. I am CPR/FirstAid Certified. I hope to have the opportunity to work with you and your families !

“Hope was punctual and sprung right into action. I could tell she was an experienced caregiver because she was very comfortable with correcting my daughter while I was still around. She actually got on the floor and played with the kids. They both warmed up to her well. I will definitely use her services again.”

Booked by 2 families in High Shoals, NC

Hi! I’m a caring and responsible caregiver with experience managing 10+ children as a Sunday school teacher. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and young kids, including my nephew and niece. I’m patient, organized, and love creating a safe, fun environment. I have my own car, can help with errands, light housekeeping, and preparing delicious meals adaptable to any diet or allergies. I'm also comfortable caring for pets and am bilingual in English and Spanish.

“Libby was on time and very professional. She asked about our daughters’ schedule and literally played with her all day. When she left my daughter said “aww, I want her.” Would hire her again!”

"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."

"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)."
