Sarah $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Sarah, and I’m thrilled to be pursuing my passion for working with children as a nanny. I’m 29, and my love for kids started when I was a teenager babysitting. That experience inspired me to pursue a career in childhood counseling. After taking a detour to become a stay-at-home mom for almost two years following the birth of my daughter, I’m now excited to return to my passion and continue on this fulfilling journey. When I returned back to the workforce, it was in the insurance industry as a licensed insurance producer in Oregon and Washington. Although I enjoy helping people protect what matters most, the challenges of Corporate and the changing world has made me reconsider my path. After five years, I’m eager to once again pursue my degree in childhood counseling while working in a role that aligns with my passions. What I Offer: • Childcare: I provide a positive, nurturing environment that fosters emotional, educational, and social development. • Transportation: I’m comfortable driving children to/from school or extracurricular activities and have a clean driving record. • Homework Support: I assist with grade school level homework and learning activities to support your child’s academic growth. • Parenting Support: Experienced with Gentle Parenting techniques, but I’m happy to follow your preferred parenting style and approach. • Outdoor and Creative Activities: I love spending time outdoors, doing crafts, and visiting the library with children. • Household Assistance: I’m available to help with cooking, cleaning, and running errands, so you can focus on quality time with your family. • Pet Care: I’m an animal lover and am happy to help with pet care as well. I’m excited to meet you and your family and contribute to a happy, healthy, and enriching environment for your child!

Hi - My name is Annie and I'm currently a Junior at University of Portland. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I am CPR certified and I currently coach kids as young as 13 months to 18 years old in different athletic activities. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since I was 15 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. I am also a huge animal lover!

Marie $30 per hour for 1 child

With years of experience caring for homes, pets, and children, I bring reliability, warmth, and professionalism to every family I work with. I began house sitting and babysitting while in high school and have continued to offer these services occasionally as a working professional. I truly enjoy being around children and animals, and I take pride in creating a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment. Whether it’s keeping a home organized, ensuring pets are happy and well-cared for, or engaging children in meaningful activities, I approach every responsibility with genuine care and attention to detail.

"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)."
