Grace $30 per hour for 1 child

With 5+ years of dedicated experience caring for children from newborns to pre-teens, I bring joyful engagement and reliable support to your family-not just supervision. My background includes full time/part-time nannying for infants, after-school care for school-aged kids, and overnight care for toddlers and children. Through these roles, I’ve mastered everything from daily routines and developmental play to handling big emotions with calm creativity. I’m also CPR/First Aid certified (renewed November 2023) and trained in Safe Sleep Practices, Early Childhood Nutrition, and more because your child’s safety is my top priority. My approach blends structure with warmth: I believe in clear boundaries, empathetic communication, and nurturing independence through play. You’ll find me designing sensory activities for infants, helping with homework through patient encouragement, or guiding sibling dynamics with fairness. For me, emotional safety matters just as much as physical care-which is why parents describe me as dependable, intuitive, and genuinely enthusiastic. I notice when a child needs comfort, a creative outlet, or quiet space to recharge. Beyond the basics, I love nurturing growth through: 🎨 Creative Enrichment: Tailored arts & crafts, music time, storytelling, and simple STEM experiments. 🌳 Active Play: Park adventures, dance parties, and sports to keep kids engaged and energized. 📚 Learning Support: Homework help, literacy games, and curiosity-driven Q&A sessions. 🏡 Household Partnership: Allergy-aware meal prep, light tidying, and seamless routine management. What truly fuels me? Building trusting relationships-with your children and you. I’ll share thoughtful updates about your child’s day, and I’m always proactive about their evolving needs. Let’s connect so I can help your family thrive!

Amanda 1 review
$24 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Saint Paul, OR

Hello! My name is Amanda, but many people know me as Bambi. I moved to Los Angeles from Kentucky several years ago and have built my life around caregiving roles—as a nanny, caregiver, and server. I have recently relocated to Oregon, and love it so much! I've always had a nurturing, empathetic presence, and I find deep fulfillment in supporting and enriching the lives of others, especially children. I bring creativity and joy into my caregiving, especially through music—one of my greatest passions. With a background in music, I love incorporating singing, rhythm, and playful learning into my time with kids. I also absolutely love animals! I have experience as a daycare attendant at a doggy daycare, where I cared for dogs of all breeds and personalities. Whether it’s children or pets, I take pride in being attentive, gentle, and tuned in to their needs. I grew up with a strong example in my own home—my mom has been a kindergarten teacher for over 20 years. Being raised by an educator gave me a deep appreciation for child development, structure, and the value of patient, supportive care.

She took amazing care of my animals! I was able to travel across the country and felt total peace of mind with Amanda (Bambi) taking care of my animals. She sent frequent updates and photos! Would definitely hire her again!

Kailey $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kailey and I’m 18 years old. I have around 4 years of nanny/babysitting experience. I have my own means of transportation, am CPR certified, fully vaccinated, and can provide references! I’m currently looking for a long term commitment with a welcoming family. I enjoy being able to create a loving and safe environment for kids to be comfortable enough to express themselves. I have a gentle parenting style and believe in explaining why we can and can’t do things. I love to be able to find fun and engaging activities outside the house as well, if parents are okay with that! Pets are also definitely not an issue (I’m a big animal lover).

"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)."
