Hi! I’m Tanith and I’m working toward becoming a teacher, which is why I love spending time with kids and helping them grow. I’ve babysat children of all ages and always aim to create a safe, fun, and calm environment. Whether it’s playing, helping with homework, or bedtime routines, I bring patience, responsibility, and care to every job. Babysitting has been a great way for me to gain experience with kids, and I’d love the chance to support your family!

Booked by 1 family in Sandston, VA

Hi, my name is ShaQuoria, but friends call me Gabby! I currently live in Henrico, VA, but I was born and raised in AL and just moved here from CA. I have 10+ years experience if you count me caring for my younger siblings and neighboring children. I have babysat for a couple of times, but my experience is within babysitting my siblings, neighboring kids, or helping at my hometown’s daycare. I have worked as an ABA therapist, and BHT with a total of about two years experience in this, caring for adults and children with special needs. I have been a CNA for almost four years, and have worked in all settings: hospice, in-home, assisted living, health & rehab, hospital, acute, palliative, etc.. I love to clean, cook, and since I have sisters and little cousins; I love to take them to get ice cream, and to the park, specifically the water park because it’s so hot & humid back home! I have my own vehicle. Although, I am 23, I want to communicate with children in a way they will understand and love. I have a kind heart and I am very patient. I am certified by AHA for BLS. I have 3 AS degrees from Los Angeles Harbor Community College. One in Pre-Health Professions, Mathematics & Social Sciences, and Health & Fitness. I currently attend VCU School of Nursing, and aspire to be an example of a curious and non-judgmental human being in life. I want to help with school work, bake, paint, sing, play games/sports, or do any extra-curricular activities as well.

$18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Sandston, VA

A babysitter? No! A family orientated guardian angel who not only has the southern charm manners and hospitality but also a philosophy of child education. From typical household duties to homeschooling I’m the addition to the family you never knew you needed. I’m open to a detailed explanation of my procedures, beliefs, healthy management and curricular activities. I can’t wait to meet you! I just enjoy being able to help families who may not be able to give all their time and so that’s where I step in teaching healthy habits, nurturing, instilling confidence and life skills, giving that love and attention and just making it easier for wonder families all over with love because it’s a passion not just a paycheck.

I started volunteering at a Senior daycare center in Richmond, Virginia and I find fulfillment and rewarding in caring for seniors in a loving atmosphere. I completed day 5 of volunteering and I plan to give more time to Senior 1st choice and also find balance to work for childcare and Senior companion.

"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
