Brit $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Brit, an energetic, creative, and experienced caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers! My love for working with kids started early, tutoring younger students in reading and math and babysitting throughout high school. In college, I worked as a Direct Support Professional for children with disabilities, and later spent several years nannying for families in Chicago. I'm outgoing, patient, playful, and a little silly! I love encouraging curiosity, creativity, learning, and adventure while creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment where kids can thrive. I'm also a great tutor, an excellent housekeeper, and happy to help keep busy households running smoothly. Beyond childcare, I have extensive experience pet sitting and house sitting around the world. I'm responsible, adaptable, dependable, and genuinely enjoy caring for people, pets, and homes. I bring lots of energy, warmth, and enthusiasm to everything I do—and I can't wait to meet you!

Riley $25 per hour for 1 child

Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is my greatest passion. With four years of experience caring for up to three children, I have developed a creative and imaginative approach to keeping kids engaged. I am equally comfortable leading outdoor sports and physical games as I am settling in for board games and puzzles. My background includes First Aid Training and CPR Training, ensuring your little ones remain safe while we explore. Since I am a skilled swimmer, I am happy to provide swimming supervision during pool time. I prioritize your family's preferences by following your lead on household rules and your chosen method for daily communication. I am also happy to assist with cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, and light housekeeping. I truly look forward to becoming a supportive, positive presence in your children's lives.

"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)."
