Hi! My name is Adrianna. I graduated from NC State last May with my B.A. in Psychology and I will be going to Campbell Law this fall. I am super outgoing and friendly, and have been babysitting on and off since high school. I grew up with 2 younger siblings so I have always loved being around kids. I am comfortable with meal prepping, light housework, and transportation for the kids. I have the most experience with toddlers - middle school aged kids but am open to expanding my age range! I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life, so pets are no issue. I have a reliable transportation and flexible hours until school starts and am excited to find some babysitting gigs!!

Abigail $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Abigail (or Abby), and I’m a 20-year-old college student with experience caring for children through family and friends. I offer babysitting for children ages 3 and up. I enjoy being active, creative, and doing crafts with kids while respecting household rules and parental expectations. While babysitting, I can help with cooking, tidying, homework, and bedtime routines as needed. I’m also interested in pet care. I’ve helped care for my grandmother’s chihuahua, and would love to gain more experience working with other pets. I have no allergies. My availability may vary, but I’m usually available on weekends and Friday evenings.

Angela $20 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 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.

"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

"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)."
