Booked by 3 families in Dayton, OH

Hi- I’d like to share a little about myself. My name is Lesley. I am college educated. I am dependable and have reliable transportation. I also have a clean driving record. I have over 20 years of experience caring for children of all ages. I am first aid and CPR certified. In high school, i majored in early childhood education. Also I am a non-smoker. I am patient, passionate about caring for children, responsible and easy going. I provide a safe and nurturing environment. Recently I have been caring for a few different families with multiple children for occasional date nights. I would love to learn more about your child/children and their likes/dislikes/routines, etc. I am comfortable with any and all pets as I love animals. I believe I would be a valuable asset to your family. I would love to set up an interview to discuss things further. I look forward to speaking with you. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Lesley was wonderful! Very prompt and thorough in learning about our two-year-old, her needs, and her routine. Put her through her bedtime perfectly. Would highly recommend!

Isabelle $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Isabelle. I’m a dependable and caring person with a lot of hands on experience taking care of children, even though I haven’t had a formal babysitting title before. I helped raise my younger sisters from the time they were babies, so I’m very comfortable caring for infants, toddlers, and kids of different ages. I’ve also helped babysit for my parents’ friends, helping with supervision, meals, playtime, and bedtime routines. I’m someone families can truly count on. I’ve worked multiple jobs, so I understand the importance of showing up on time, being reliable, and doing what’s asked of me. I’m very comfortable helping with light cleaning and keeping things organized, since I do a lot of household chores at home and I like leaving spaces clean and taken care of. I also spent about two years helping care for my great grandmother who had Alzheimer’s. That experience taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and staying calm and attentive while caring for someone who needs extra support. I have pets of my own, so I’m happy to help with pet care as well, including feeding, walking, and supervision. I always try to follow family routines, prioritize safety, and make sure kids feel comfortable and cared for while their parents are away. I’d love the opportunity to help support your family and provide reliable, attentive care you can feel good about.

"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)."
