Devin $20 per hour for 1 child

I have worked in the health and wellness field for over 19 years and am a proud parent of 8-year-old twins. Caring for others has always been a central part of my life — both professionally and personally. I have supported several elderly family members over the years and understand the importance of patience, attentiveness, and compassionate care. I enjoy creating engaging, enriching environments for children through outdoor activities like nature walks and hikes, as well as board games, puzzles, music, and arts and crafts. I hold an undergraduate degree in music and love incorporating singing and simple instruments into playtime. Cooking is another passion of mine, and I enjoy preparing healthy snacks and involving children in simple meal preparation to build confidence and life skills. I am also a lifelong animal lover. My first job at 16 was working at a veterinary clinic kennel, and I have extensive experience caring for dogs, cats, and reptiles. I am attentive, responsible, and genuinely enthusiastic about animal care. I am currently working part-time and am seeking caregiving opportunities to support families, seniors, and pets with dependable, compassionate care.

Kerry $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I've been working in childcare since I was 12 years old (in a day care) and started to nanny professionally at 18. I recently was laid off from my job after being there for almost 8 years! The family grew out of needing a nanny. So I need a family to care for 🥹 I've worked with many other families, sometimes multiple at a time (just different care jobs for families that need part time help), as well as several other families full time. I've also done lots of caregiving work for people with disabilities and occasionally the elderly. I've had non-nanny jobs too, working in a library, a printmaking studio, and a couple coffee shops. About me aside from work--I've went to Oregon College of Art & Craft and graduating in 2014 with a focus on Book Arts and ceramics. So I'm creative! I keep and etching press at home and love to help kiddos make and learn about art. Lots of drawing and creativity are important to me. I'm also passionate about animals--I have a dog and cat and used to have a bunny as well. I care about all animals. My dog is a little beagle named Tulip who came from an animal testing facility. My cat is a 12 year old mutt cat named Gaely. I hope to help out in any way possible. Cooking, cleaning, and attention to details are a strong spot for me. I love to help organize--I know how hard it can be to keep everything in place when you have kiddos. Wishing you luck on your search! <3 Kerry

"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)."
