A'Jiane 2 reviews
$35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m A’Jiane, but most people call me AJ! I’m naturally nurturing, patient, and playful, and I love creating a space where children feel safe, valued, and free to have fun. I’ve been caring for children for over a decade through family and friends. My experience includes newborns, toddlers, school age children, and preteens, so I’m comfortable supporting children through many different stages of development. I enjoy creating engaging, age appropriate activities while also providing structure, consistency, and plenty of room for children to simply be themselves. I also enjoy helping families beyond childcare. I’m comfortable with light household support such as meal preparation, tidying, laundry, organizing, and helping keep the home running smoothly. I’m definitely a homemaker at heart and genuinely enjoy creating welcoming, organized, and comfortable spaces. I’m currently a full time Corporate Business Analyst, but I’m working toward transitioning into nannying full time because serving children and families is something I genuinely enjoy and feel passionate about. As a Christian, my faith is an important part of who I am and how I strive to treat others, with humility, patience, grace, and integrity. I believe childcare should support the whole family, especially Mom. My goal is not only to care for your children, but to be a trustworthy source of support that gives Mom the opportunity to rest, recharge, reconnect, or simply have time for herself. Moms deserve that too. ❤️ Outside of childcare, I love music, singing, playing piano, cooking, interior design, and spending time at home. I’m looking forward to getting to know your family and becoming someone you and your children can genuinely trust and enjoy having around! 💕

A’Jiane has truly been an amazing babysitter for my 2 kids! My kids are ages 8 (boy) and 11 (girl) and they are always SUPER excited to spend time with A’Jiane! She’s fun, reliable, and attentive to each child’s needs. She’s even helped with nurturing my child interest in music. They have developed such a beautiful bond which truly brings comfort to me as a mom. I highly recommend her services!

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.

Yaya was amazing! She accepted my last-minute request for an all-day babysitting job and was incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. She was wonderful with my 2-year-old daughter, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in great hands. I truly appreciated her flexibility, reliability, and caring nature. I would absolutely recommend Yaya to other families and will definitely be using her again in the future!

"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)."
