Hello my name is Larriesha, and I love caring for infants and toddlers but I am comfortable with any age. I am adult and infant CPR and first aid certified and have 10 years experience in babysitting along with taking care of multiples and children with behavioral problems along with autism. I enjoy many activities with children such as playtime, crafts, outdoors, storytime, and helping little ones achieve important milestones. I am very comfortable with pets and wouldn't mind doing house cleaning or cooking for the children. I have my own transportation and I am willing to do any pick ups or drop offs if needed. I hope you consider me as your baby sitter or nanny and I am looking forward to meeting you and your family.

Lovely, calm, and great energy with young children. Trusted her implicitly.

Hello Dear Families, I am happy and love kids. I am from Bolivia. I am looking for a part time job. I am located in Hendersonville, TN. I love children and like to spend my time with them in the nature. I have plenty of experience! I have worked with kiddos since I was 19 years old back in my country.

I have references that I will be happy to share. I’m respectful, friendly, and patient. I look forward to meeting you! Sincerely, Miriam

Hi! My name is Jesica Depina, and I’m a reliable and caring babysitter currently living in Nashville, TN. I was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts, and bring strong family values, responsibility, and warmth to every job I take. I’ve been caring for my nieces and nephews since they were born—over the past five years—so I’m very comfortable with children of all ages, including infants and toddlers. I’m also CPR-trained and have three years of experience working in a hospital, so your child’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. Now that I’ve just turned 18, I’m working toward building my independence. I’ve been managing my own responsibilities since I was 15, so I understand the importance of trust, punctuality, and clear communication. I love kids and enjoy creating fun, safe, and nurturing environments for them to learn and grow. If you’re looking for a dependable sitter who treats your children like family, I’d love to connect!

Hello! My name is "Penny" (Abigail)! I am a professional artist out of Nashville. I thrive in environments that require care, attentiveness, and interaction. I believe that hands on approaches are almost always superior to jus a presence. That being said, when just a presence is needed, I love to simply sit and listen. I have 4 years of Nanny experience (beginning at 6-months, 3, and 5) and thrived during my time with them. I loved puppet shows, story time, and dress up... Ever day was a new adventure. I also have experience working with people afflicted with dementia, as I cared for my brittle grandmother for the past 5 years of her life. I have 2 service dogs, 2 cats, and a horse; they are *my* babies, and I love them dearly. I hope these Sparknotes are helpful! Cheers! Penny

"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)."
