Ingrid $25 per hour for 1 child

With over 5 years of experience, I specialize in caring for newborns, infants, and toddlers. My passion is fostering physical and cognitive development in a safe, happy environment. I consider myself creative, organized, and deeply empathetic. For the last 3 years, I have worked with the same U.S. family, managing the care of three children at different developmental stages. This experience has allowed me to master multitasking, sibling dynamics, and long-term developmental support. I love organizing purposeful play activities, early stimulation, and outdoor exploration. I am also an expert in establishing well-being routines, nutrition transitions, and potty training. For me, being a nanny is a commitment to lead with heart and help children grow into confident individuals. Excellent U.S. references are available. Available starting mid September, early October 2026!

Allie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello there! I'm Allie, a nurturing and reliable sitter in Silver Spring, MD, eagerly looking to connect with a wonderful family in need of child care. With extensive experience in caring for newborns, toddlers, and primary school aged children, I'm passionate about creating a safe and loving environment for little ones to thrive. As a sitter, I am dedicated to providing exceptional care and support to your family. Whether you require occasional, part-time, or full-time care, I am here to help! My hourly rate is $20.00, ensuring that you receive top-quality care at an affordable price. I understand the importance of finding the right caregiver for your precious little ones. I come with a background in social work, I have both a Bachelors and a Masters of Social Work from Florida Atlantic University. I have recently moved to the DMV area within the last year and I am eager to create a home here. From 2013 to 2024, I provided full-time & part-time child-care services for a family with 4 children (ranging from newborn to 12-years old). From 2021 to early 2024, I was a part-time sitter for a 5-year old, as well as a part-time sitter for a 2-year old who is on the spectrum. Additionally, from 2021 to 2024, I worked full-time as a Social Worker at a drop-in center for houseless youth and was a co-facilitator for a new mom's social group. As of recent, I have been caring for a 7-month old part-time for the last 7 months. I am truly passionate about working with children, especially because they are today's agents of change! If you are seeking a nurturing and attentive sitter who will go the extra mile to ensure your child's well-being, please feel free to message me. I can't wait to meet your family and provide the care and support you need. Additionally, I can provide senior-care, house-sitting and pet care services.

"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)."
