Aaliyah 2 reviews
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Merion Station, PA

Hi - My name is Aaliyah, but my preferred name is Ashanti. I am offering childcare and seniorcare services. I am the oldest child of 5. I have 2 children of my own. My daughters are 6 and 1. I enjoy doing everything with children; cooking, baking, crafts, homework, reading and so much more. I have been doing this from about 17 years old and it is something I enjoy. I have also taken care of senior citizens ranging from ages 70 - 90. I do not have a drivers license, but I can help with errands throught uber or public transportation. I am a non-smoker.

“Ms. Aaliyah is an amazing baby sitter. She took care of my 6 month old until she was 1 year old. I had to work a lot & she made everything so easy for me. I know my daughter was safe and well taken care of. I hope she continues to do this. She is amazing and will absolutely bless another family!”

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.

Tyahn 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Merion Station, PA

Hi Parents! I’m Tyahn. I’m a reliable and caring nanny looking for a full-time position. I have 7+ years of childcare experience with three families, plus daycare and youth program experience working with infants through school-age kids. I’m graduating with a degree in Communication Studies, and as I move into my career path, I’ve been looking to stay connected to working with kids since it’s something I’m very experienced in and genuinely enjoy. I enjoy supporting children with their daily routines, learning, and play, and I focus on creating a fun and safe environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m patient, consistent, and hands-on, and I can also help with light housekeeping, errands, and pet care. I’m flexible and looking for a long-term family to grow with. I can provide references from previous families upon request. I’m CPR and first aid certified and up to date on COVID-19 vaccination. Would love to connect!

“Tyahn is wonderful! She began babysitting for our 1 year old in August and quickly became our go-to. She's great with our daughter and super helpful when our baby is sleeping (e.g. getting things organized, prepping meals, etc.). You'd be lucky to have Tyahn work with your family!”

"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)."
