Leidy $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Leidy. I have years of experience working in supportive care settings, both with families and in medical environments. I am patient, kind, and attentive. I really enjoy helping children feel comfortable, heard, and understood. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and my background in healthcare has taught me how to stay calm, organized, and aware of safety. I love creating routines and making kids feel secure, whether we are reading, doing crafts, playing games, or having quiet time. I also have two golden retrievers at home, so I am very comfortable around pets and happy to help in homes with animals. I know how important it is for the entire home environment to feel warm and cared for. I truly believe children thrive when they feel valued and supported. I would love to be a positive and reliable part of your family’s day.

Emily $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Emily, and I’ve been babysitting and nannying for over 6 years. I’ve worked with families through services such as Wyndy and other babysitting platforms, nannied for several families, and cared for children of family members, coworkers, and friends. I’ve had experience with children ranging from newborns through middle school. I genuinely love working with kids and feel very fortunate to have a natural patience, compassion, and kindness when caring for them. I enjoy getting to know each child individually, taking an interest in the things they love, and joining in on their favorite activities. I want children to feel safe, cared for, and genuinely excited to spend time together. My approach to childcare is centered around respecting the parents’ wishes, routines, boundaries, and parenting style. I work closely with parents to understand what makes their child feel comfortable and supported; from their daily routines and preferences to any triggers, behavioral patterns, favorite activities, and the little things that make them who they are. I’m also happy to help with more than just childcare. Depending on what parents are comfortable with, I can help with meal prep, light tidying, pet care, walks, outings, activities, and the little household tasks that make everyone’s day run a little more smoothly. I believe in leaving a home better than I found it. Whether I’m caring for one child or a whole group of siblings, my goal is to be fully present and engaged. I love creating fun, active experiences while also building genuine relationships with the children I care for. I want to be the babysitter they remember, look forward to seeing, and feel comfortable with and the person parents know they can rely on when they need an extra hand. I’m flexible, caring, responsible, and dependable, and I place a high value on integrity, honesty, and clear communication. I’m available for part-time positions, set weekly hours, occasional weekends with notice, or flexible schedules as long as expectations are clearly communicated. Whether it’s singing lullabies, making up silly games, keeping up with busy schedules, or simply being a calm and caring presence, I’d love to be your go-to girl!

"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)."
