Booked by 1 family in Glenolden, PA

Hi! My name is Astrid (she/her), and I'm from Santa Fe, New Mexico. I lived in North Carolina for 6 years, first for my undergraduate degree and later for my occupational therapy doctorate. As part of my OT training, I’ve been on rotations in Seattle and Baltimore over the last 6 months. I’m now in Philadelphia for my capstone project, and I am offering childcare and elder care services. I started babysitting as a teenager, and have had the privilege to meet the most wonderful, caring, and special families throughout my childcare experience. I started working with older adults in 2024, and I am beyond grateful for the time, stories, and joy I’ve been able to share across generations.

My name is Emylee. I am available to babysit. I also have some experience with babies and I am very patient and do not mind crying or anything like that.

Amaya $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Amaya and I am a recent college graduate with a Bachelor's in Social Work and Policy Studies. I have a deep passion for child safety and welfare, and creating safe, nurturing environments where kids can truly thrive. My childcare experience spans several years, from helping care for children in my neighborhood growing up with my mother, to working at the YMCA with toddlers, to working at a daycare with children as young as 8 months through kindergarten age. I understand child development deeply, not just from hands-on experience but from my academic training in social work. I am warm, creative, and imaginative. I believe in getting kids engaged in play, art, and hands-on activities rather than screens. I bring energy and intentionality to every interaction. I respond quickly and communicate clearly with parents such as updates, photos, and check-ins are always part of my care. Beyond childcare, I am a previous cat owner and have pet sat dogs for friends, so I am comfortable with animals. I am also open to light household tasks as needed. I am reliable, professional, and easy to communicate with. I work well independently and show up prepared and on time.

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Glenolden, PA

Hi! I’m a Peruvian girl living in Philadelphia. I’ve been living here for 5 years. I’m a former Au pair (2[removed]), nanny for 4 years and mom of a sweet 3 yo toddler girl who is in preschool. I speak Spanish and english, I have experience with babies as young as 6 weeks old and as old as 7 years old. I enjoy doing crafts with kids, art, going to the museums, playgrounds and have little play dates when weather is permitted. I’m a big advocate for learning from outdoors and take real life lessons! Which means minimal to zero screen time. Being a nanny is so rewarding that I learn so much about tiny humans. I also love cats and dogs and any other animals in general. I do pet sitting on the side and I can provide help as a household assistant and can clean, cook and run errands.

Adaiha 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Glenolden, PA

I enjoy caring for children, pets, and the elderly because it allows me to help others and build strong, caring relationships. I have experience babysitting, looking after animals, and supporting elderly people with daily tasks. These roles have taught me to be patient, responsible, and compassionate. I’m new to this app, but I have plenty of experience working with children, dogs, and seniors. If you give me the opportunity, I promise you won’t regret it.🩷 I can share a lot of my culture with children and open up a world of opportunities. With love Adaiha

Thank you Adaiha for looking after our kids, keeping our house neat and tidy and coming on time! We highly recommend Adaiha and would have her look after our kids again.

"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)."
