Ke'mora $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Keke! have hands-on experience I worked as a teacher at The Learning Experience, i'm also in the process of getting my bachelors degree in early childhood education and computer science . I cared for children in a classroom setting, supported learning activities, and maintained a safe environment from infants to pre-school . I also have years of babysitting experience with children of different ages and was in the position of a nanny . I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy caring for children and being part of their growth and daily routines. Watching kids learn, feel safe, and have fun brings me a lot of joy. I also enjoy building trusting relationships with both children and parents and knowing I'm making a positive difference.( i am new to this specific app but i used other nanny apps )

Jennifer $20 per hour for 1 child

I have worked with children since I was 10 years old starting with babysitting for friends and family. When I got older I learned I wanted to be a social worker as I am now trying to get my social work degree from Texas State University through online courses. I have experience in working with children who are on the spectrum (4+ years), working at a daycare, and working at church through Sunday school to teach children about God. I have a CPR certification. I have a cat and two dogs of my own.

"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)."
