$15 per hour for 1 child

I am 19 years old and recently graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University with a BS in Psychology. I will be attending Hawaii Pacific University this fall in the PsyD Clinical Psychology program and will have a concentration in child and adolescent psychology. I have cared for children, seniors, and pets throughout my entire life - both a part of and not a part of my family. I take myself as a bubbly and social person who is able to maintain a calm demeanor when experiencing a stressful situation. Along with this, I love making those around me laugh and feel comfortable when around me. I love doing the things I enjoy with those I provide care for like painting, going for walks, reading, listening to music, and so much more. I've noticed that incorporating these activities into the time I spend with others gives us something to bond over since it provides us with an outlet for expression.

I am 26 year's old and have been working with kids I was 18. I have my bachelor's in Child development and I am CPR/First Aid certified. I am also working on taking newborn care specialist courses. I will be available as a full-time nanny beginning at the start of June. I am looking for something long-term and need to be paid legally (preferably through a payroll company like Home pay.) I enjoy tailoring weekly plans with the kids around a theme they are interested in when possible and love taking them on adventures/trips around the area, particularly ones that tie in worn our theme of the week. I will be getting married in Oct 2025 and am very excited. My fiancé and I have lived in since 2020 and we have 2 dogs, an almost 4-year-old Shih Tzu named Archie, and a miniature poodle we just adopted who is 6 months old and is named Willow.

$16 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Ashley! I studied Early Childhood Education throughout high school and have been working with children of all ages since graduating in 2020. Over the years, I've gained hands-on experience with various teaching styles and completed multiple trainings focused on child care and development. I'm CPR and Medication Administration certified. I'm now looking to work one-on-one with children to better support their individual learning and developmental needs. I'm currently based in Pasadena but will be relocating permanently to Lancaster, PA in early November. I'd be happy to answer any questions and look forward to connecting!

"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)."
