Angela $13 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Angela — a dependable, mature caregiver with years of hands-on experience raising two college-age children and supporting families in my community. I have extensive experience with children of all ages, from infants to teens, and I bring a calm, nurturing, and safety-focused approach to every home. I’ve worked in childcare settings, run after-hours care for parents who work late shifts, and supported families with routines, homework, meals, bedtime, and transportation. I’m patient, organized, and great with communication — the kind of sitter children feel comfortable with and parents can trust. I enjoy keeping kids active with walks, crafts, games, and outdoor play. I’m also available for pet care and senior companionship when needed. I show up on time, follow household routines, and make sure you come home to a peaceful, tidy space. I would love to support your family whenever you need reliable care.

A’Ishah $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is A’Ishah and I’m currently studying for my associates in Biotechnology. I love watching kids and have been doing so since I was 14. I can also tidy up the house and run any errands that need to be taken care of. I’ve been watching my nieces and nephews for the past few years, and have gained experience through that. I also love cats, so if you have one, I’d be glad to help with that as well!

"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)."
