Natalia 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Natalia, and I would love the opportunity to care for your family. I am a warm, patient, and responsible person who genuinely enjoys spending time with children and helping them learn, grow, and feel safe. I have experience caring for children up to 10 years and because I come from a large family, I have always been surrounded by children and pets. Looking after younger family members and helping care for our animals has been a natural part of my life, teaching me responsibility, kindness, and the importance of creating a loving and supportive environment. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and I have studied Psychology for three years at a university in Guatemala. I also have knowledge of the Montessori philosophy, which has helped me better understand children’s emotional and developmental needs. My long-term goal is to continue my education and specialize in child and adolescent psychology because helping children is something I am truly passionate about. I am also comfortable caring for dogs and assisting older adults if needed. I understand that every family is unique, and I am always happy to adapt to your routines and preferences. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning fun and educational activities, preparing simple meals, keeping play areas tidy, or simply being a caring and reliable presence, I am always willing to go the extra mile. I believe in treating every child with patience, respect, and encouragement. I value honesty, good manners, and strong principles, and I always welcome feedback because I want to continue learning and provide the best care possible. Thank you for considering me. I would be honored to earn your trust and become someone your children feel safe, happy, and comfortable with. My goal is to support your family with kindness, reliability, and genuine care every day.

I’ve known Natalia for a long time now, and she’s helped us out many times. She’s one of the most dependable people I know and is naturally great with kids, patient and kind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can trust.

Aleah $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Aleah thank you so much for taking the time to review my profile. My hope is to create a fun, caring and nurturing environment for your child and or pet. Allow me to introduce myself: Childcare Experience I began caring for children as a teenager through my church’s childcare services. I started in the nursery, caring for children ages newborn to one year old. I was responsible for diaper changes when needed, making sure the babies had plenty of age-appropriate toys and activities to stimulate their developing minds, and helping maintain nap time. I also made sure the babies were comforted whenever they began to miss their parents and, of course, safely returned them to their parents when church was over. As a young adult, I worked at a daycare with children ages four to five. I led pre-kindergarten after-school care, helping create a safe, nurturing, and positive environment. I assisted the children with homework, encouraged their academic development, and helped them better understand the work they were completing. I also maintained the cleanliness and organization of the classroom to promote a healthy learning space. In addition, I planned and implemented engaging after-school activities that supported the children’s social, creative, and cognitive development. I also have experience working with teenagers ages thirteen to seventeen. During an internship, I worked as a camp counselor where I mentored teenagers through both small- and large-group settings. I supported teens as they worked through emotional, spiritual, and personal challenges. I also participated in a mission trip with the students where we visited neighborhoods and helped provide resources to families in need. Pet Care Experience I have experience caring for my family’s pets, especially when their owners are out of town. This includes making sure they are walked every day, provided with breakfast and dinner, entertained, and cared for until their owners return. I also have experience dog sitting in other people’s homes. This typically includes following their feeding schedule, taking daily walks, providing companionship, and making sure they are comfortable while their owners are away. My Personal Policy One thing I truly stand by is constructive criticism with kindness. I want to make sure that your child or pet is well taken care of at all times so If there is ever any way I can improve please let me know. I look forward to working with you!

Daniel $15 per hour for 1 child

I’m a calm, charismatic, and reliable person who grew up as the oldest sibling, so childcare has been a natural part of my life for years. Because my younger siblings were born much later, I often took on the responsibility of watching them for full days while my parents worked. That experience taught me how to stay patient, keep kids safe, and handle a household with confidence. I’m comfortable entertaining kids, helping with routines, and keeping things organized while maintaining a relaxed, friendly environment. I’m also very self‑sufficient and quick to adapt to whatever a family needs. Even though most of my experience comes from caring for my own siblings, it has given me real, hands‑on skills that translate well to helping other families.

"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)."
