Needge $20 per hour for 1 child

I truly enjoy working as a babysitter because caring for children has always been one of my biggest passions. Every child is unique, and I find so much joy in supporting them as they learn, grow, and discover new things. As a mother myself, I understand the importance of patience, safety, and creating a loving environment where children feel comfortable. Whether it’s preparing meals, helping with bath time, organizing educational activities, or following a nap routine, I take my responsibilities seriously. I love seeing children smile, make progress, and build healthy habits. Parents can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and respectful of their instructions. I also make sure to communicate clearly and provide updates whenever necessary. Babysitting is more than just a job for me—it’s something that comes from the heart. I believe every child deserves care, kindness, and someone who truly enjoys being around them.

"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."

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)."
