Saida $20 per hour for 1 child

I have 5-10 years of experience in childcare, working with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. Over the years, I've gained a deep understanding of child development and have learned how to create a safe, nurturing environment that supports physical, emotional, and cognitive growth. I’m certified in CPR and first aid, and I’m well-versed in creating a structure that ensures safety while encouraging learning and play.

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.

Ashlyn $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ashlyn, and I just graduated with a B.S. in psychology from Santa Clara University. I grew up helping take care of my younger brothers, including one who is nine years younger than me, so babysitting has always felt very natural to me. I’m patient, responsible, and love creating a fun, safe, and comfortable environment for kids. I’m also very comfortable around pets! I love both dogs and cats and have one dog and two cats at home, so I’m happy to help with families who have pets as well. I would love the opportunity to support your family and make sure your children feel cared for and engaged while you’re away.

Maleny 2 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Sherwood, OR

Hey there! My name is Maleny, I’m 28 yo and I’m from Mexico. Fully bilingual and living in SW Portland. I have lots of experience with children: I’ve worked as a gymnastics teacher, dance instructor, at a daycare and as a babysitter. My first year in Oregon I worked as an Aupair. I lived with the family and worked for them. I took care of an adorable baby girl from 4 to 16 months and up to now we’re still best friends. I was in charge of feeding her bottles, introducing new food, play time, baths, taking her out, nap-time and daily learnings. I also have experience with a wider range of ages all the way to 8 years old. I consider myself as patient, loving and proactive. I respect your way of raising your kids so I’ll follow your direction, but im also self motivated and can also come with ideas to share with your family. I’m very much of loving and respecting the kid’s feelings at the same time as setting boundaries and having learning moments.

I have seen Maleny take care of infants and toddlers throughout the year. She’s incredibly patient with the kids and engaging. Maleny likes take kids on walks, play dates, parks, hikes, shopping, and libraries. She will ensure they are safe, active, and healthy. She provides all the daily care and support a family could need. Maleny is experienced, dependable, and observant. I recommend her to all my friends and family for childcare needs.

"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)."
