Sharon $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Sharon, and I've had the joy of working in early childhood development for over 30 years. Starting as an elementary school teacher's aide, I discovered my passion for nurturing young minds. I then became a lead teacher in daycare centers, creating engaging environments for children. For the past four years, I've been a private nanny, building strong relationships with families and providing personalized care. My approach is rooted in patience, understanding, and a deep love for children. I create a safe, nurturing environment where children can explore, learn, and grow. I'm always happy to share advice with parents about developmental milestones, educational activities, or making daily routines smoother. I'm passionate about providing the highest quality of care. Thank you for considering me as a caregiver for your precious little ones!

Yacine $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Yacine, and I'm a responsible, caring, and patient person who truly enjoys supporting families. I have several years of hands-on experience caring for children—from newborns to school-aged kids-through looking after my younger cousins and friends' children. I may be new to professional caregiving, but I bring reliability, warmth, and dedication to every role. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for children. Whether it's reading, arts and crafts, outdoor play, or helping with homework, I love engaging kids in activities that support their growth and creativity. I am CPR and First Aid certified, bilingual in French and English, and can assist with light meal prep and routines so parents feel at ease knowing their little ones are in good hands. I also provide companionship and non-medical support for seniors. I can assist with cooking, errands, light housekeeping, and transportation to appointments. Most importantly, I enjoy spending quality time, listening, and ensuring seniors feel respected, cared for, and supported in their daily lives. In addition to childcare and senior care, I offer household services to help keep things running smoothly. My experience includes cleaning, laundry, organizing, and meal preparation. I can bring my own cleaning supplies if requested, and I always approach household tasks with attention to detail and care. Whether you're looking for dependable childcare, compassionate senior care, or reliable household support, 1 bring responsibility, kindness, and a genuine love for helping others. My goal is to make life easier and more enjoyable for every family I work with.

Emily $17 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m Emily. I have almost 5 years of experience working with children. I also have an 8 month old who I love with my whole heart. I love taking care of kids and watching their faces light up when having fun or learning something new. I’m always willing to improve my childcare skills. If it is okay I would like to bring my daughter with me while I babysit (this won’t affect the care for your child). I have the most experience with infants and toddlers, but am willing to babysit older children. I can’t wait to meet you and your family and hopefully help make your like a little bit easier and less worrisome.

"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)."
