Cheyenne $13 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Cheyenne, and I have a passion for caring for others. I have hands-on experience babysitting children of all ages, caring for pets, and supporting seniors with daily needs. I took care of my grandfather for a while, which gave me a deep appreciation for patience, compassion, and reliability in caregiving. Families can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and trustworthy. I’m happy to help with meals, light housekeeping, homework, or even just being a fun, engaging presence for kids. With pets, I provide loving attention, walks, feeding, and playtime. For seniors, I offer companionship, light assistance, and a caring attitude. Whether it’s children, pets, or seniors, I treat those I care for like family and always prioritize safety and comfort. I’d love the chance to support your household and give you peace of mind knowing your loved ones are in good hands.

Chloe $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Chloe! I’m an 18 year old senior in high school, and plan on going to college to become a registered nurse. Caring for others is something I'm truly passionate about, and I take responsibility and trust very seriously. I’m CPR/AED & First Aid certified and have experience caring for children of all ages, including my most recent nanny position with two sweet girls (ages 7 & 10). I grew up in a big family, so being around kids has always come naturally to me! I'm patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for kids. I treat every child with kindness and care, just like I would with my own family. I also have a background check I can provide!

Alexis $23 per hour for 1 child

I have worked in various settings, including community pools, daycare centers and caring for a few children in my own home for several years. I am CPR/ First Aid Certified. I have my RBT, making me well-versed in caring for children of all. Additionally, I have experience working with seniors. I began caring for my 78-year-old-in-law and, two years, took numerous senior living courses. It is with a heavy heart that I share he has passed, but I believe he is in a better place. I am striving to move forward and continue to use the blessings I feel God has given me!

"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)."
