Jade 1 review
$21 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Jade! I’m a proud Texan with a vibrant, cheerful, and energetic personality! I love spending time outdoors, traveling, and caring for animals. I also enjoy arts and crafts, singing, and dancing. Every week, I make time for church activities and fellowship, volunteering on weekends to give back wherever I can. I have experience caring for children of all ages through my church, and I truly enjoy creating a fun, loving, and supportive environment for them. Helping others and making a positive impact is something I’m passionate about, and I look forward to bringing that same energy wherever I go! Thank you!

Jade is amazing! She’s very reliable and flexible with her schedule which is extremely appreciated as I need a sitter on a case by case basis. I’ve worked with her before and she’s been around for 8 months now to help with my baby girl and puppy for when life just happens. A great help and i’d definitely recommend!

Afua $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello!! My name is Afua! and I’ve been working with children for over five years. I absolutely love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and caring environment. I currently work as a hospital technician, so I’m medically trained and confident handling any health or safety concerns that may come up. I have experience caring for children with autism as well as older adults with dementia and other cognitive challenges, so I’m patient, understanding, and attentive to individual needs. At my church, I serve as a toddler coordinator, where I plan and lead activities that keep little ones engaged and excited to learn, which means I’m great at organizing fun, creative ways to spend time with kids of all ages. I’m also very active and love staying on the move, whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, or keeping up with energetic toddlers. My goal is to make sure your children feel happy, supported, and safe while having a great time. Your kids will be in caring and capable hands with me, and I’m always happy to answer any questions you have!

Shanel $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Shanel, and I am a part-time college student with many years of childcare experience. I have been babysitting since I was 16 years old, which has given me the opportunity to care for children of various ages and personalities. In addition to babysitting, I have been teaching elementary school students for the past few years, allowing me to develop strong skills in child development, education, and positive behavior management. I am an active, adventurous, and patient caregiver who truly enjoys working with children. Some of my favorite hobbies include reading, coloring, and ballet, and I love incorporating creative and educational activities into my time with children to keep them engaged, active, and focused. Teaching and caring for children is a passion of mine because I believe children are our future. I am attentive, dependable, and skilled at building positive connections with children while creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for them to learn and grow. I am CPR certified and experienced in meal preparation, light housekeeping, and organizing age-appropriate activities. My goal is to provide families with reliable childcare while ensuring children feel supported, encouraged, and cared for. I would love the opportunity to help your family. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to discuss your childcare needs.

"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."

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)."
