Ayoade $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Ayoade. I’m currently in cosmetology school and hold a Bachelor of Arts in Communication & Psychology. I offer child care, senior care, and light household services. I have over a decade of experience caring for children of all ages—from newborns to school-aged kids (including my twin sisters!). I’ve worked in a daycare and spent 2 years as a Direct Support Professional, which strengthened my skills in patience, safety, and individualized care. My responsibilities have included school drop-offs/pick-ups, meal prep, homework help, crafts, and fun, engaging activities. I’m responsible, flexible, and quick on my feet. I also serve in the children’s department at my church, so my childcare experience is ongoing. I look forward to creating a safe, fun, and caring environment for your family!

Dayanara $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello my name is Dayanara, as a baby sitter and care giver i take pride in creating an environment where the essence of trust is provided. With being able to care for such precious individuals comes the act of being responsible and becoming a part of the family in a sense. Ever since i was a little girl I’ve always gravitated towards children and had a special spark with them. I am experienced with infants all the way to teens. Responsibilities throughout my journey have included driving to/ from school, crafts, tutoring, dance lessons, meal prepping and have even partaking in family vacations. I am certified in CPR and i am Bilingual in both English and Spanish. With all the responsibilities that play a part i also make sure to incorporate a very friendly, kind and energetic environment for the children. I am open and willing to do chores around the house as well as cooking. Working with family pets is not an issue.

"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)."
