Sydney $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Sydney, and I’m an 18-year-old with a genuine passion for working with children. I’ve always loved kids, and caring for them brings me so much joy! With experience babysitting children aged 1 to 13, I understand the different needs and interests at each age. In addition to providing a safe and nurturing environment, I love engaging kids in fun activities—whether it’s taking them on outings, or playing games at home. I also enjoy baking and am always eager to share that joy with the kids, whether we’re making cookies together or experimenting with new recipes. I am certified in Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED, so you can rest assured that your children will be in safe hands. I’m happy to help with light household chores and tidying up after activities to keep your home organized. I look forward to creating a fun and supportive atmosphere for your children while giving you peace of mind!

Nyah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Nyah, and I'm a reliable, patient, and energetic nanny who believes childhood should be full of laughter, learning, and a little bit of harmless mess (the kind that's easy to clean up!). I love creating fun, engaging days with kids—whether we're building blanket forts, reading the same favorite book for the hundredth time, tackling homework, or heading outside for adventures. I'm happy to help with meals, routines, and keeping things running smoothly while making sure your little ones feel safe, supported, and cared for. I take my responsibilities seriously, but I also believe a good sense of humor makes every day a little brighter. I value open communication with parents and will always treat your children with the same care, kindness, and respect that I'd want for my own family.

"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)."
