Hello my name is Kalah. I am a 31 year old mother of 2. I have a Bachelors degree in biology and worked with children and adults with developmental, behavioral, and intellectual disabilities for 11 years prior to becoming a mother myself. I come from a military/law enforcement family, so I’m great with punctuality, organization, structure, and cleanliness but I’m also a creative who loves cooking, dancing/music, travel, and fashion. I have no age preference, as I work well with all ages. I am first aid/CPR/AED certified, BLS certified and have been a nanny for 14 years now.

My experience with Kalah was excellent. She was caring, patient, reliable, and attentive throughout the entire visit. She made my 78-year-old mother feel comfortable and well cared for, and I truly appreciated her warm, professional approach. I would gladly recommend Kalah and would be happy to have her care for my mother again on numerous occasions. 10 out of 10.

I’ve been working in the ECE (Early Childhood Education) field for over 10 plus years. I have experience working in a childcare setting with Infant/Toddlers as a Lead Teacher. My responsibilities as a lead teacher follows -Taught and implemented primary curriculum to young and older toddlers with the goal in mind to achieve developmental milestones - Collaborate and communicate with parents to achieve and set common goals. - Create and engage specific activities to ensure appropriate development of fine and gross motor skills. -Through recreational play activities promoted appropriate social interactions. - Prepped, served all meals under the nutritionist guidelines. - Assisted children in toilet training and promoted proper hygiene.

Shakeeva was a pleasure to work with. She took excellent care of our son and was very understanding and respectful of our bedtime routine. She made us feel at ease and we could tell from the minute she walked in that she was a confident caretaker. We are hoping to hire her again in the future.

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.

Abby is my daughter and I would highly recommend her as a babysitter/caregiver. Abby is a natural when it comes to children. Abby has been CPR certified and babysitter certified in the past and is working toward recertification. Abby was a lifeguard at Jungle Jims Water Park and worked as a swim instructor at Goldfish swim school. Abby has babysat my friend’s children and children that live in the neighborhood. Abby is playful and fun and children seem to be drawn to her. Abby is warm and caring and will be an excellent babysitter/caregiver.

"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."

"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)."
