$30 per hour for 1 child

I genuinely love spending time with children and have years of experience caring for kids both back home and here in the U.S. Since moving here, I’ve helped care for my niece and often take him and his friends to the playground on weekends when I’m free. I currently work as a dental assistant and am looking for part-time babysitting or nany opportunities in the evenings or on weekends. I’m patient, playful, and always make sure kids feel safe and happy.

Hi there! Nice to meet you! My name’s Lauren and I’m looking forward to working with your family. Here’s a bit about myself: I have years of experience working with children ages 1-10 as a babysitter, nanny, and I also previously worked as 4th and 5th grade elementary school teacher in Fairfax County. As I care for your child, I’ll make sure they are happy, engaged, and safe! Currently, I am taking a break from teaching and do private tutoring as well as babysitting. Please feel free to let me know any routines you follow, any likes/dislikes that your child may have, or anything you'd like to share with me. During care of your child, I'll respond to your calls/texts right away. I'm open to do a video call to introduce myself if you prefer that as well. Hope to hear from you! :) -Lauren

Very professional. On time. Good communication. Seamlessly integrated herself and made the transition easy for us to leave. Our little one had a great time with Hyun. Def recommend!

Hi, I'm Gissell 26yrs old About me: I've been working with kids since 2017 and have over 9 years of experience. In 2023, I worked as a teacher assistant in a preschool, where I learned even more about helping children grow and gained experience working with more than one kid at the same time. I've cared for babies, played with toddlers, and supported older kids too. Skills and Qualifications: I'm certified in CPR and First Aid. I truly care about each child and always try to meet their individual needs. As a nanny, my goal is to give children a warm and caring environment where they can feel happy and confident.

Hi! My name is Savi. I've been a professional nanny for over 20 years, and it's truly been a joy to watch the families I've worked with grow and thrive. I typically join families when their little ones are newborns and stay with them through those precious early years-until they head off to school full time. Saying goodbye is always bittersweet, but I feel lucky to have been part of those foundational years. I'm caring, nurturing, and trustworthy, with a reputation for being exceptionally punctual (and I have excellent references to back that up!). I'm currently looking for a full-time position (around 45-50 hours per week) with a family who will welcome me as a valued part of their lives. If you're looking for a dependable, experienced nanny to support your family's daily routine, I'd love to connect. I'm happy to share my resume and answer any questions you may have. Thank you so much!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
