Jordan $16 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name’s Jordan. I was born in Michigan but grew up here in Ohio, on the east side of Columbus. I have many younger siblings (five to be exact), all of which I had the pleasure of taking care & babysitting for most of my life. I also can handle pet care if need be. If you want the truth I’m just a college student finding his way.

I have four sisters and one brother so I had a lot of experience with them, growing up. I have babysat for families before and also have been a nanny for families as well. I love to be outside, during the summer, spring and fall and I am energetic, very caring and outgoing. I will agree with almost all plans and activities. I am observant and I am also a license practical nurse so I have experience in the health care field as well. I have experience with pets too. I love cats and dogs.

Melissa $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a 37-year-old mom of two. I live in Galloway Ohio My kids are 11 and 14 so they go to school and come home at different times I have helped raise my nieces four month old one year-old and four year-old. I have tons of experience with babysitting over my lifetime. My previous job before this was a medical assistant at an OB/GYN where I done manual blood pressures and took all other vitals and gave shots and helped with procedures before that I worked in the ICU at Grant hospital as a PSA and helped nursing with daily task and wound care at the hospital. I was CPR and first aid trained in adults and children. I am a huge animal lover. I have two dogs of my own, a bully and a bull terrier, girl, and boy and one kitten I’ve had animals in my entire life even as a child. I have done home health caregiving before in the past I have worked with a wide range of adults of all ages, both genders from MRDD individuals to elderly some of them with certain conditions and some without I have done things where I’ve provided personal care in housekeeping to just companionship running errands. I’ve also been a personal assistant for one of the elderly people I was helping taken care of, so I guess caregiving has always been a part of my life ever since I was young. I’m pretty flexible now that my kids are in school and go and come at the same time. I have a lot of free time. I would also be willing to do childcare in my own home if that was needed and I have a space for my dogs and kitten that I could put them so they would not be around anybody’s children if you didn’t want your child around any animals Thank you for your consideration!

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Derby, OH

My name is Samantha, and I am a 21-year-old caregiver with a lifelong passion for caring for children. Growing up, my mother was a very well-known babysitter in our community, and from a young age, I learned the importance of patience, responsibility, and genuine care. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience helping care for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids, and have developed a deep understanding of what it takes to create a safe and loving environment. Being raised in a family known for trust and dependability, I take great pride in continuing that legacy. Families who know us have always appreciated our reliability, kindness, and the sense of comfort we bring to their homes. As a nanny, I strive to build strong, positive relationships with both children and parents — ensuring that every child feels secure, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow through play and structure. I am confident that my nurturing personality, strong sense of responsibility, and genuine love for childcare make me a great fit for your family. I would be honored to provide the same level of trust and care that my family has always been known for.

"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)."
