Kariyana $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Kari, a creative, dependable, and compassionate caregiver with 10+ years of childcare experience, 15 years of household experience, and 4 years of professional pet-sitting experience. I genuinely enjoy caring for people, children, pets, and homes, and I take pride in creating a safe, comfortable, and positive environment for every family I work with. I’ve been babysitting since I was about 12, starting with my younger cousins and nephews, including babies just a few months old. Since then, I’ve cared for children ranging from newborns through young teens (up to age 16). I also worked for two years at 24 Hour Fitness Plus in their childcare program, giving me professional experience caring for multiple children and keeping them safe, engaged, and entertained. I love creative activities, imaginative play, music, storytelling, arts and crafts, and helping with homework. My background in theatre also makes me especially comfortable creating fun, engaging activities for kids of different ages and personalities. I’m currently completing my pediatric and adult CPR training and certification. I also offer household services and have about 15 years of experience cleaning and caring for homes. I work quickly but thoroughly and pay close attention to detail. I’ve been recommended by previous clients because I take pride in doing a great job. Most importantly, there is absolutely no judgment here! Whether you need routine cleaning, tidying, organizing, or help getting your home back under control, I’m happy to help. I’ve been pet sitting for about four years and have experience caring for senior pets, disabled pets, and pets who need medications. I’m comfortable with feeding, administering medication, providing companionship, and following individual care instructions. I’ve also grown up with pets and had my own cat for 11 years, so I understand how much our animals mean to us. I’m also interested in senior care. I helped my grandmother care for my great-grandmother until she passed, and I’m comfortable providing companionship, assistance with meals and feedings, entertainment, and day-to-day support. I’m especially happy to keep someone company through conversation, music, singing, games, or simply being a friendly presence. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, creative, and genuinely care about the people and animals I work with. My goal is for families to feel comfortable knowing their loved ones and their homes are in capable, caring hands.

Sydney $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Sydney, and I am a dedicated caregiver with over 9 years of professional experience. I currently balance my time as an Administrative Assistant at the University of Houston and a Youth Leader at the YMCA. Working daily with 2nd–5th graders has made me an expert at keeping kids engaged, productive, and safe. While I have experience with infants, I truly thrive with active toddlers and school-aged children. I pride myself on being an interactive, high-energy caregiver. I don't believe in screen-time sitting 24/7, instead, I focus on planning engaging activities and educational play. Because of my background as a tutor at the YMCA, I am highly skilled at helping children with homework, specifically in reading, writing, and math. I love being able to help kids master new skills like multiplication or division while their parents are away. Beyond childcare, I aim to be a helpful addition to your household. I have my own reliable transportation, a strong professional work ethic, and I am always happy to help with light tidying to keep your home organized. I am also currently in the process of renewing my CPR/First Aid certification to ensure your children’s safety is always the top priority. I look forward to providing your family with the high-quality, professional care you’re looking for!

"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)."
