Hi everyone! My name is Melissa. I’m an 18-year-old college student and early high school graduate currently working part-time as a senior caregiver. I’m looking to expand my services and would love to help your family! I have a wealth of experience with children ages newborn through 11, gained through both church childcare programs and private babysitting. I’m also a huge animal lover, I grew up with big dogs, so I’m very comfortable with pets of all sizes! I pride myself on being responsible and proactive, and I am happy to obtain my CPR certification or any other credentials you may require. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones (or furry friends)!

Melissa is incredibly reliable and has proven to be very careful and attentive with my 1-year old. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help babysitting a young toddler or infant.

Booked by 4 families in Houston, TX

Hi! My name is Yaseen, and I’m a responsible and caring babysitter with 5 years of experience working with children of different ages. I currently work in a hospital, which has strengthened my attention to safety, cleanliness, and staying calm in any situation. I am also BLS (Basic Life Support) certified, so parents can feel confident knowing their children are in safe and prepared hands. I enjoy creating a fun, positive environment for kids while also keeping routines on track. I can help with homework, prepare simple meals, organize activities, and keep children engaged with games, crafts, or outdoor play. My goal is to make sure kids feel comfortable, supported, and entertained while their parents are away. Families often describe me as dependable, patient, and attentive. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your children, and I always treat every child with kindness and respect as if they were my own family.

Ms. Yaseen is so sweet! She was attentive to my toddler & communicated questions & concerns. She was on time and personable

"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)."
