Hi! I'm a full-time nanny with 3 years of experience caring for children of all ages. I also graduated from cosmetology school and love getting creative with hairstyles and nails ( as well as having to fix a few haircuts). I'm an animal lover who enjoys hiking, reading, arts and crafts, and keeping spaces clean and organized. I spend as much time outside as I can and make it a priority to go for a walk every day. Whether it's my own routine or helping in someone else's home, I value organization, reliability, and creating a positive, safe environment for kids.

Jill $15 per hour for 1 child

I grew up in a family of 5 and I’m the middle child, we all have children and I’m surrounded by children. I love to cook, I’m a very good cook and grocery shopper as well! I love children. I have 2 grandchildren and they are the light of my light. I helped raise them until they moved to Oklahoma when they were 9 and 11. I cooked, cleaned, took them to church, school, helped with homework, all the extra things their Mom needed help with. My mother lived with me the last 5 years of her life. She was sick the last 2. She was on home hospice with me the last 6 months of her life and I was her caregiver. When I was in my early 20’s I was a CNA in a couple of nursing homes, so I knew what to do. I took the last year of work off to be with her. I loved taking care of her. I’m a very loving Christian woman and I would love to take care of your family. I love dogs too and I’m happy to pet sit as well! I have decided to not go back to high pressure sales and be of service to a nice family that needs a nice older woman that has some energy and experience.

Hi, I'm Lisa, but all my families call me Nina (my grandma nickname). I'm a mom to four grown children and grandmother to seven! I have been a professional nanny for over 20 years and I absolutely love it. Families face so many challenges today and I love coming along side parents and making their life easier and their homes run smoother. Knowing what families need before they even ask is my superpower! From newborn care to taking tweens to and from activities, I've done it all! I honestly love cooking, cleaning, and laundry and am happy to help in whatever ways makes sense for your family. I also know how important trust and communication are when inviting someone into your home and I pride myself on being honest, dependable, and flexible as your needs grow and change. I currently have a wonderful family that I care for after school M-TH, but am available for weekends, evenings, and daytime hour or backup care on school closures or sick days. I look forward to finding the right family to support!

“Lisa was a life saver! We were fortunate to have Lisa watch our son for a little over a year, until we moved away for work. As a first-time mom she made me feel at ease. She helped with sleep training and getting a good routine that worked for our family. She became part of our family right away. She goes above and beyond. She took our son to the park, library and to playdates. She has great communication and very reliable. We miss her every day!!”

"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)."
