Ashley 3 reviews
$18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ashley I’m 18 years old and I am offering child care and pet care!! I have 5 family dogs and 1 personal dog of my own but they all get the same amount of love!!! I’ve had dogs since I was in second grade and they are my everything! I used to take my two older pups on walks and adventures all the time until they couldn’t anymore. Me and my dog Hazel always go on adventures like shopping, doggy parks, food runs, etc!! Overall dogs are everything! I also provide child care! I have three younger cousins that I used to watch and take care of! I love being a babysitter because I love being able to do so many different activities with the kids. For example, coloring, watching movies, dressing up, letting them do my makeup or hair, etc!

Ashley has been working for me since 2023. My daughter was 3, son, 6 at the time. I use her services quite often. My picky eater finishes meals for her. She keeps them entertained. We have not experienced any major problems. My kids are pretty active, so the occasional skinned knee is dealt with as I would. Ashley has never had to call me to solve a problem, but, I have no doubts she would, if necessary. Ashley has never cancelled on a regularly schedule date. She has also come through for me on short notice a few times. I trust Her with my children because she respects me, my house, my rules, as well as, my children. I don't worry when I'm out because I know my children are being well cared for.

"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)."
