Louise $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Louise, and I offer senior care, child care, and household support. Caring for others has always been a meaningful part of my life. I have over 30 years of experience providing child care for families since coming to this country, in addition to raising three daughters of my own. My child care responsibilities have included school pick-up and drop-off, homework help, arts and crafts, and accompanying children to medical and therapy appointments. I also assist with cooking, cleaning, errands, and general household needs. Along with child care, I have experience providing compassionate care for elderly individuals. Most recently, I cared for an elderly woman living with dementia, supporting her daily needs and ensuring her comfort and safety. I take pride in being dependable, patient, and attentive, and I truly enjoy helping families and individuals feel supported.

Shanell $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Shanell, and I’m a caring, reliable, and energetic sitter with over 4 years of experience working with children of all ages. I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with kids in both personal and professional settings. I’ve cared for my younger cousins and other children, which helped me naturally build patience, creativity, and strong communication skills. Professionally, I spent 3 years working as an afterschool teacher and summer camp counselor, where I supervised groups of children, planned fun and engaging activities, and made sure every child felt safe and included. I also worked for 1 year as a teacher’s aide, supporting classroom instruction and helping students from kindergarten through middle school with their learning and daily routines. I genuinely enjoy being around kids and creating a positive, fun, and structured environment for them. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing activities, or just making sure they’re safe and happy, I always bring a responsible and attentive approach. I look forward to connecting with families and providing trustworthy loving care for your children

"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."

"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)."
