Cassie $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Cassie. I am a college grad looking to transition from other work to full-time nannying and babysitting. I have many years experience as a babysitter and I enjoy the work immensely. There is nothing I love more than building a pillow fort or baking cookies, and I've never met a child I didn't get along with. I understand the importance of communication and emotional regulation and love to "talk it out." It's important to me that your child feels seen and listened to. As an artist myself, I love drawing, singing, and making up stories. There is too much to do and create for us to ever be bored! I have no problem washing dishes, folding laundry, making lunch or dinner, and helping with other chores. I am quite flexible; in terms of schedule and also what is requested of me. I know that some weeks are harder than others. It is important to note that I travel using public transport; hopefully this isn't a huge drawback for you!

Kenya $14 per hour for 1 child

Hello my name is Kenya. I am a recent graduate from Penn State University where I majored in Psychology, with an emphasis on child psychology. I am taking a gap year to study for my LSAT. In this time I want to also explore my passion for working with children. In the past I have worked for a daycare for a year where I helped potty train children as well as help them socialize. I have my clearances and CPR license. I have also worked as a tutor and can help children with their homework. I enjoy exploring the environment with children and seeing things through their eyes. I look forward to taking your kids on walks, coloring, and baking. Don’t worry we’ll make sure to leave you some brownies for when you get back.

"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)."
