Hi! My name is Abby and I am 20 years old. With 8 years of babysitting experience, I genuinely love working with kids and always prioritize their safety and fun! I'm currently a junior at the University of Delaware, studying psychology, which further fuels my passion for understanding and engaging with children. I have been a lifeguard at Jungle Jim’s water park and have taken many babysitting and CPR training courses so I know what to do in those situations to keep your child safe as well.

Riley Wilmington
$25 per hour for 1 child

Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is my greatest passion. With four years of experience caring for up to three children, I have developed a creative and imaginative approach to keeping kids engaged. I am equally comfortable leading outdoor sports and physical games as I am settling in for board games and puzzles. My background includes First Aid Training and CPR Training, ensuring your little ones remain safe while we explore. Since I am a skilled swimmer, I am happy to provide swimming supervision during pool time. I prioritize your family's preferences by following your lead on household rules and your chosen method for daily communication. I am also happy to assist with cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, and light housekeeping. I truly look forward to becoming a supportive, positive presence in your children's lives.

Kyleigh West Chester
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kyleigh, and I have been working in childcare since I was 15 years old. Caring for children has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and I have gained experience working with kids of different ages in a variety of settings. I am currently a college student studying Psychology. During the week, I work as a Preschool Assistant at the YMCA, where I help create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for young children every day. In addition to my professional experience, I am also a proud older sister to my 10-year-old brother and 12-year-old sister. Growing up as the oldest sibling has taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of being a positive role model. I strive to be a babysitter who is dependable, caring, and engaging. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning activities, playing games, or simply making sure your children feel comfortable and cared for, I am committed to providing a safe and enjoyable experience for your family!

Wilmington
$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 129 families in Kennett Square, 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!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
