Sara $20 per hour for 1 child

I have babysitting experience and genuinely enjoy spending time with children. I come from a family of seven kids, and both of my sisters have children, one has three kids and the other has one. I am always helping take care of my nieces and nephews, which has given me valuable hands-on experience with children of different ages. I am friendly, patient, responsible, and organized, and I always do my best to make children feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I enjoy keeping children entertained with fun activities, helping with their daily routines, and making sure their needs are met. I am dependable, attentive, and caring, and I want parents to feel confident and comfortable knowing their children are in good hands.

"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)."
