Greetings, My name is Noelle McGee and I'm a sophomore in college. I have a high school degree, first-aid and CPR certifications, and I'm Covid vaccinated.

Hello, I have worked as a nanny three times, for children ranging in age from four months to five years old. I also worked for a caregiver with a therapy organization for children with developmental disabilities back in 2[removed]. I work from 9-6 Monday through Friday, so I am available some evenings and weekends. Please just message me to check availability for a particular date! I am CPR trained, reliable, and happy to help out with light housework. I also love animals, so I always willing to help out with any household pets too. Unfortunately I do not sit for families when someone in the household is sick. (I tend to hang onto colds for weeks 🤧.)

I have been a nanny since I was 15 years old. I have watched all ages of children from infants to preteens. I have worked with children with special needs as well. I am also accustomed to working with more than three children. I have had jobs as a summer nanny, date night babysitter, and overnight weekend sitter. I am also a swim coach and teach swim lessons, so I have worked with children in many different settings. I also have been a certified lifeguard for the past seven years and I am accustomed to teaching children to swim and saving their lives in the water. I am allergic to mushrooms so if meal prep is involved please make sure they are not involved with it! **Note if you cancel within less than 24 hours I require 2 hours minimum cancelation fee. Thank you!**

Hannah was great! Friendly and took wonderful care of our kids.

Hi, my name is Abigail, and I’m a recent master’s graduate of Georgetown University. I provide childcare, senior care, and household support services. I’m also comfortable working in homes with dogs. I have several years of experience caring for children of different ages. I’m patient, dependable, and able to help with tutoring, activities, homework support, and creating a safe and engaging environment. In addition to caregiving, I can assist with cooking, laundry, organizing, and light cleaning. I also have experience supporting older adults and enjoy building meaningful connections through conversation and companionship. I’m multilingual, adaptable, and comfortable working with families from diverse backgrounds.

Thoughtful, on time, communicative, amazing with our 1yo!

"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)."
