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!

Hi family’s! I’m Lissy I’m a very loving, upbeat, and patient caregiver with 5 years of experience caring for children ages 1–12, including working in a Sunday church daycare. I genuinely love spending time with kids and creating a safe, happy, and fun environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. I enjoy staying active, playing outside, and helping with daily routines. I’m also a huge animal lover with 5 dogs and a cat, so pets are always a joy for me! I’m currently in school for phlebotomy, which has helped me become even more responsible, attentive, and compassionate. I would be so excited to support your family and care for your little ones like my own!

Booked by 1 family in Elgin, TX

I am a mom of two, Ava (10) and Andrew (17) and one Corgie/Chihuahua named Chloe. I was a stay at home mom for both my kids and continue to work a schedule so that I can pick up my daughter from school. I recently started helping take care of my friend's baby who just turned one and loved every minute of it. I grew up nannying for my younger cousins in the summers (three girls) and it was extremely fulfilling. I have a BS from the University of Texas at Austin in Communiation and am a certified Personal Trainer. I also do home organization and pet care because I can't sit still for long. I love all breeds of dogs and so do my children!

“Illaria is great! Super on time and my baby loved her!”

Vida $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Vida— a reliable, calm, and kind-hearted caregiver with a natural love for children and animals. I’ve spent my life caring for dogs and being the trusted “go-to” person for friends and family when they need dependable help. I’m patient, attentive, and very safety-focused. I love creating a calm, positive environment where kids feel comfortable, heard, and supported. Whether that means helping with homework, playtime, bedtime routines, or simply being a steady presence, I take responsibility seriously and treat every child and home with care and respect. I’m punctual, communicative, and always happy to follow family routines and preferences. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and give you peace of mind while you’re away!

"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)."
