Jada $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jada and I’m an experienced and enthusiastic childcare provider with a strong background in working with kids of all ages. I spent three months as a camp counselor for children ages 5–7, where I led fun, engaging activities and helped create a positive, safe environment for all campers. For the past eight months, I’ve also worked as a behavioral technician supporting children ages 3–17, gaining valuable experience in understanding different behaviors and meeting each child’s unique needs. I'm currently continuing this work while attending Rice University as a college student. I'm creative, responsible, and genuinely love working with kids! I enjoy dancing, crafting (especially painting), and cooking fun meals. I’m also happy to help with household tasks like cleaning and organizing. I have a valid driver’s license and am comfortable with school pickups, drop-offs, or running errands. I’m excited to bring energy, patience, and care into a family's home and look forward to connecting with you!

$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Barker, TX

I have several years of childcare experience caring for children ranging from 3 months old through high school age. Throughout my experience, I've provided attentive, dependable care while creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, play, and thrive. I recently earned my Bachelor's degree and am CPR certified, which has strengthened my knowledge of safety, organization, and responsibility. My personality is warm, patient, energetic, and reliable. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities, reading, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and helping children reach developmental milestones. For school-aged children, I'm happy to assist with homework, transportation, meal preparation, and maintaining consistent daily routines. I believe in open communication with parents and strive to provide the same level of care and attention that I would want for my own family. In addition to childcare, I'm comfortable with light housekeeping related to the children, preparing meals and snacks, organizing play areas, doing children's laundry, and running errands if needed. I also have experience caring for pets and am happy to help with pet care as part of my responsibilities. Families describe me as trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable, and I take pride in building lasting relationships with both children and parents.

Kariyana $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Kari, a creative, dependable, and compassionate caregiver with 10+ years of childcare experience, 15 years of household experience, and 4 years of professional pet-sitting experience. I genuinely enjoy caring for people, children, pets, and homes, and I take pride in creating a safe, comfortable, and positive environment for every family I work with. I’ve been babysitting since I was about 12, starting with my younger cousins and nephews, including babies just a few months old. Since then, I’ve cared for children ranging from newborns through young teens (up to age 16). I also worked for two years at 24 Hour Fitness Plus in their childcare program, giving me professional experience caring for multiple children and keeping them safe, engaged, and entertained. I love creative activities, imaginative play, music, storytelling, arts and crafts, and helping with homework. My background in theatre also makes me especially comfortable creating fun, engaging activities for kids of different ages and personalities. I’m currently completing my pediatric and adult CPR training and certification. I also offer household services and have about 15 years of experience cleaning and caring for homes. I work quickly but thoroughly and pay close attention to detail. I’ve been recommended by previous clients because I take pride in doing a great job. Most importantly, there is absolutely no judgment here! Whether you need routine cleaning, tidying, organizing, or help getting your home back under control, I’m happy to help. I’ve been pet sitting for about four years and have experience caring for senior pets, disabled pets, and pets who need medications. I’m comfortable with feeding, administering medication, providing companionship, and following individual care instructions. I’ve also grown up with pets and had my own cat for 11 years, so I understand how much our animals mean to us. I’m also interested in senior care. I helped my grandmother care for my great-grandmother until she passed, and I’m comfortable providing companionship, assistance with meals and feedings, entertainment, and day-to-day support. I’m especially happy to keep someone company through conversation, music, singing, games, or simply being a friendly presence. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, creative, and genuinely care about the people and animals I work with. My goal is for families to feel comfortable knowing their loved ones and their homes are in capable, caring hands.

Arianna $15 per hour for 1 child

I’m Arianna. I’ve been babysitting for over 15 years. Currently, I serve as an on-call nanny for twin boys I previously cared for full-time for five years. I’ve also been an active part of raising my nieces and nephews for the last 10 years, always offering a steady and loving presence in their lives. I have extensive experience caring for pets. I raised a Jack Russell Terrier from a puppy, training her myself when I was just 17. She lived a full 14 years before passing from cancer. Currently, I care for a lively one-year-old tabby cat. Both children and pets naturally gravitate toward my calm and confident demeanor. In addition to my caregiving experience, I am highly capable of handling household tasks, tutoring for many subjects, and am a competent cook with professional culinary experience. While I do not have formal experience caring for the elderly, I truly enjoy spending time with them. I treasure the opportunity to listen to their stories, learn about their upbringing, and absorb the wisdom and knowledge they have to share.

"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)."
