Brit $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Brit, an energetic, creative, and experienced caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers! My love for working with kids started early, tutoring younger students in reading and math and babysitting throughout high school. In college, I worked as a Direct Support Professional for children with disabilities, and later spent several years nannying for families in Chicago. I'm outgoing, patient, playful, and a little silly! I love encouraging curiosity, creativity, learning, and adventure while creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment where kids can thrive. I'm also a great tutor, an excellent housekeeper, and happy to help keep busy households running smoothly. Beyond childcare, I have extensive experience pet sitting and house sitting around the world. I'm responsible, adaptable, dependable, and genuinely enjoy caring for people, pets, and homes. I bring lots of energy, warmth, and enthusiasm to everything I do—and I can't wait to meet you!

Hi everyone! My name is Jaelyn — I’m 27 years old, CPR certified, and currently offering nanny services for now and the summer! I’ve spent the past few years teaching 3rd grade at a Catholic school, and I recently started my new journey teaching 1st grade at a new school with the philadelphia school district. I graduated from West Chester University in 2021 and am currently pursuing my master’s in Counseling at Saint Joseph’s University, with the goal of becoming a school counselor to better support children socially, emotionally, and academically. With several years of experience working closely with children, both in and outside the classroom, I bring patience, structure, creativity, and a nurturing personality to every child I care for. I’m passionate about helping kids feel safe, seen, and supported — whether we’re working on reading skills, doing a fun craft, exploring the outdoors, or just enjoying a relaxing day. Here’s what I can offer: • part-time nanny availability • Help with light academics (reading, writing, math review, etc.) • Structured routines and engaging activities • Meal prep for kids and light housekeeping (if needed) • Reliable transportation and flexible hours • Experience with children ages 3+ Whether you’re looking for someone consistent and dependable or a caring educator to keep your little ones engaged and learning during the summer months, I’d love to chat and see how I can support your family! Feel free to message me with any questions or to set up a time to talk. References available upon request!

"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)."
