Amanda $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I have been teaching and caring for kids ages 18 mos-16 years for more than 25 years. I have two kids of my own who are school age, and have experience in caring for infants and pets as well. I have taught academics, social emotional skills, reading, music, dance, cooking, yoga, sports, fitness and art. I am CPR/IED/EpiPen certified and very safety conscious. I’ve cleared multiple background checks the past four years and can take another if needed. My style is nurturing and firm, structured but appropriately flexible. I’m a strong believer in play based learning, reading and singing daily. Mary Poppins is my role model! I make record keeping and parent/family communication a priority, to ensure trust and accountability are established and maintained. I provide a brief written summary of each child’s day/week and send photo/video updates during the day.

Mariatu $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Burke, VA

My name is Mariatu, and I am 20 years old. I have been working as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) since I was 19 years old, beginning in 2024. Working as a CNA has given me valuable hands-on experience in patient care, responsibility, and compassion. In this role, I assist patients with daily living activities such as bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility support. I also monitor vital signs and provide emotional support to patients and their families. This experience has strengthened my patience, communication skills, and ability to remain calm in challenging situations. Although I truly value my experience in healthcare, I am currently looking to transition into a nanny position. I enjoy caring for others, especially children, and I believe my background as a CNA has prepared me well for this role. Being a nanny requires attentiveness, reliability, and a nurturing personality—qualities I have developed through my professional experience. I understand the importance of safety, structure, and creating a positive environment where children can learn and grow. I am responsible, trustworthy, and committed to supporting families in a meaningful way. In addition, I am preparing to enter nursing school to further my education and advance my career in healthcare. Becoming a registered nurse has been a long-term goal of mine, and I am dedicated to working hard to achieve it. My experiences as a CNA and my interest in working as a nanny both reflect my passion for caring for others and making a difference in people’s lives. I am motivated, compassionate, and eager to continue growing both personally and professionally.

"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)."
