Nurhayat 1 review
$27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Falls Church, VA

Hello, this is Nurhayat. I live in Arlington, VA. I am a patient, positive, and bilingual 28-year-old with 10+ years of childcare experience. I have an International Relations degree from my home country, Türkiye, and I have been working with children since high school. I am currently studying Business Administration at Northern Virginia Community College (NOVA), and I am planning to transfer to George Mason University next year to continue my education. I am currently taking care of three adorable children, ages 2, 5, and 6.5. Due to their grandmother moving in with them, I am looking for a new opportunity. I am a planner and a multitasker, and it brings me a lot of joy to be around children and support them as they learn, grow, explore, and enjoy every moment. I believe one of the most important parts of childcare is providing a safe and stable environment while keeping things fun, engaging, and making sure children feel heard and cared for. I am also willing to help with additional tasks. I have references that I would be happy to provide. I have a valid work permit and my own car. I would love the opportunity to connect and see if I could be a good fit for your family. Thank you!

she was great with my 7-year-old son. She was really helpful in assisting him with his homework and made a positive difference in his learning

Mavis 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

I have been caregiving for the past 10 years, I am passionate about everything I do and my top priority is always my clients safety. I communicate always with the clients family and I am also at all times available and willing to work. I oversee the welfare and social emotional need with the logistics and planning of any activities the client wishes to participate in. I treat my patients like my family.

Ms. Mavis is one of the best people for whom I have worked with. She was so patient, understanding and just overall showed so much care for my child. When my husband and I decided to move away, it was hard because we thinking of the childcare. I wish I could move with her, lol. If we ever move back, I definitely know who to call. She is an amazing person and the best nanny.

have been working in childcare since 2022 and have gained valuable experience caring for children as young as three months up to three years old. In addition, I teach Sunday school for children ages four and up, which has strengthened my skills in guiding older children, leading group activities, and teaching with patience and creativity. I create a nurturing and safe environment where children feel loved and supported, while also encouraging their growth and independence. I am caring, observant, and reliable, and I enjoy bringing creativity and play into daily routines to make learning fun and engaging. Families can trust me to communicate openly and build strong relationships while supporting children’s development and helping them feel secure, confident, and happy.

"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)."
