Booked by 129 families in Downingtown, PA

Hello! My name is Taeryn and I am in Chicago for the month! I have been nannying for 13 years. I am 34 years old and I have worked with all kinds of families and learned a lot from them. I also have experience in housekeeping as well. I’m passionate about media and worked on a children’s tv show on Apple TV+ for the last year and a half. Working with children has taught me a lot about people and how to learn from others. I studied writing for television and producing so I'm always willing to embrace creativity and encourage others to learn and take chances. I have done after school care, overnight care and date night sitting as well! I am looking for full time/part time and date nights around 15-40 hours a week and 20-25 an hr. I would love to speak to you!

Taeryn is amazing. My son absolutely loved his time with her. While he is often shy the first time meeting someone, he wasn’t at all with her, and warmed up to her immediately. Highly recommended!

$19 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 37 families in Downingtown, PA

hello Parents/Guardians, I'm 27 years old and I currently attend school for child psychology. I've been working with children for 10 years in different fields while gaining a lot of experience. I love being a caregiver because it gives me an opportunity to make a difference in the world rather it encouraging, helping, and motivating children to reach their potential, that's my main goal as a caregiver. hope to hear from you Kera

We hired Kera to look after our 8-year-old after school, and we agreed to pay her the hourly rate she wanted ($19). She explained to us that "communication is really important to me," and she confirmed the night before she was scheduled to start that she would be at our 8-year-old's bus stop at the arranged time to pick him up. The next day, her first for us, she no-showed without texting, calling, or any communication at all. Consequently, when our 3rd grader was dropped off by the bus, he was alone, with no one to walk him home (across a busy road). Fortunately, a kindly neighbor saw this and walked him across the street and to our house, where he let himself in. We texted Kera, called her, and wrote her through the Urban Sitters app. Heard NOTHING. She completely ghosted us. Do not hire this person under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!

"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

"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)."
