Mayara $28 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Mayara, and I have over four years of experience in childcare. I spent two years as an au pair, where I had the pleasure of caring for four children between the ages of 3 and 13. My experience spans a wide range of ages, from newborns to teenagers, and I am particularly experienced with twins. I am passionate about creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children to grow and develop. Whether it's helping with homework, playing games, preparing meals, or just offering a helping hand, I always ensure that the children I care for feel loved and well-cared for. In addition to my childcare experience, I am bilingual in Portuguese and English, which allows me to connect with families from diverse backgrounds. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and attentive to the individual needs of each child. If you're looking for someone who is experienced, compassionate, and dedicated to providing the best care for your children, I'd love to connect with you!

Amelie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’ve been babysitting since I was 12, and over the years I’ve cared for kids of all ages. Most of my jobs came to me through word of mouth and referrals from neighbors, family friends, and local families who trust me. I’ve also looked after pets (cats, dogs, snakes, and even fish!) and I’m comfortable juggling the moving parts of a busy household while keeping things calm and safe. I especially enjoy working with slightly older kids around 9 or 10, but I also do great with toddlers and younger children, making sure they’re engaged, cared for, and having fun. I completed a babysitting training course when I was younger where I earned my CPR certification and learned how to care for children safely and responsibly. I’m reliable, communicative, and open to overnights on occasion. Above all, I want families to feel like they can fully trust me, that their kids are not only safe but genuinely happy and comfortable in my care.

Geovana $27 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Geovana. I speak Portuguese and English fluently. I’m an organized, fun and energetic person. I have to +5 years of experience with kids from age 1-9. I love to help kids to explore their creativity doing arts and crafts, painting, playing games/puzzles. Going for outdoor activities, taking them to playground or bike rides, drawing with chalks… It’s an honor to be part of the little ones development, share some love and always get it back! I think kids have a lovely perspective. I like to let them know I understand and respect their feelings and thoughts. I always try to encourage them to do their best but also accept some help when needed.

"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)."
