Jayleen $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m Jayleen! I have over 8 years of experience working with infants and toddlers outside of the UrbanSitter app. I am currently working as an orthopedic medical assistant but have over a year experience of being a Behavioral Technician with kids ages 3-7 that are on the spectrum. Imagine a babysitter/nanny who’s not just about keeping an eye on the little ones, but also turning every moment into a fun adventure. That’s me! With a touch for sports, games, creative crafts, and outdoor activities. I’m here to ensure your kids have fun while under my care. I’m excited to start a journey of laughter, exploration, and endless fun! I am also comfortable completing other responsibilities like running errands, tutoring, and tidying up. Fun fact: I am a college graduate and currently in an accelerated nursing program with an aspiration to become a Pediatric Nurse. Open to interviews in person and/or online.

Carl $24 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm a 42 year old local from Seattle WA. I'm very considerate, patient and engaging with children and enjoy being around them. Although I don't have nanny experience, I would love the opportunity to demonstrate myself as a positive, and responsible nanny and or housekeeper. I completed some college and am planning to return to school for construction management and early childhood education. Currently I'm in Seattle WA and am planning to move as soon as I'm able to find a job, and no later than August 20th, 2026. I love playing with kids and being responsible for them, caring for them, and providing supervision. I don't have kids but would like them someday. I'm a safe driver, great cook and love supporting families with fun, and safe childcare supervision.

"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)."
