Megan $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Megan. I’m 33 years old, no children of my own yet, but I love kids. I’m primarily looking for weekend babysitting opportunities—date nights, weekend plans, events, or whenever you need an extra set of hands! I’m also available Friday nights. *Please note, I am very new to this app which explains why I have no reviews yet etc. I’ve been caring for children for 15+ years and was a full-time nanny during the summers throughout college. My childcare experience began at age 12, when I started helping with childcare at my church. I believe children should be cared for in a nurturing environment. I’m comfortable and experienced with children of all ages, including infant’s, and genuinely love spending time with kids. I’m happy to help with sports practice pick-ups and drop-offs or games (I love sports!), date nights, weekend sitting, and even overnight weekend care when needed. I can also prepare meals and snacks for the kids and help keep their routines running smoothly. I love taking the kids out to fun adventures and activities as well. I’m very comfortable supervising children in and around pools. I’m a strong swimmer and have spent many summers enjoying pool time and keeping kids safe while they swim and play. I’m also open to watching multiple families’ children together if you have an event or outing that you’d all like to attend. For group childcare events, I’m happy to work out a set price that works for everyone, depending on the number of children, hours, and event details. I have reliable transportation and I do not smoke. I have a clean background check and driving record. I am active and have the energy to keep up with the kids. My CPR/First aid certification is expired, but I am happy to get an updated one. I’m dependable, patient, responsible, and flexible, and I’d love to become a trusted babysitter your family can count on! Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

"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

"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)."
