Hannah $40 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Hannah! I’m 19 years old and graduated high school in 2025. I’m starting college this year and will be taking my coursework remotely, which gives me an extremely flexible schedule and allows me to be very available to a family. I’m currently looking for a live in nanny/family assistant position I genuinely enjoy being around children and love getting to know their individual personalities, interests, and hobbies so I can create activities they truly enjoy. I’m happy to help with routines, homework, meals, playtime, bedtime, reading, creative activities, outdoor time, and keeping their spaces organized. I’m also happy to support the household while children are at school by handling laundry, organizing bedrooms and play areas, tidying, grocery shopping, errands, meal prep, and preparing things for their return from school. I’m proactive and like to notice what needs to be done without waiting to be asked. Because I’ll be studying remotely, I have an extremely flexible schedule and am available for family travel, overnight care, and schedule changes with advance notice. I’m not currently driving yet, but I’m very comfortable being active and walking longer distances, as well as using public transportation. I’m also willing to arrange and cover my own transportation when needed. I understand the importance of privacy, discretion, and respecting each family’s home and routines. I take their trust seriously and want parents to feel confident knowing their children are cared for. I’m dependable, eager to learn, and committed to becoming someone a family can truly rely on. I’m looking for a long-term role where I can become a trusted part of their routine. If you’re looking for more than just a babysitter, someone who can support your children while also helping your household run smoothly I’d love to connect.

"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)."
