I’ve consistently taken care of a now 7year old since she was one. She’s given me the experience necessary to provide healthy and balanced meals, a set schedule and different forms of entertainment. I love creating new and educational projects for her as well. I’ve had experience with children of all ages and look forward to caring for yours. I’ve also had around 2years of experience caring for the elderly. I worked with a client who had dementia for 6months and take care of my great grandmother when she comes up. I’m experienced in bathing, feeding and clothing the client.

Lenexia connected well with our 17 month old, and she communicated well and kept us updated. Would recommend!

I have raised children of my own and I've been a caregiver most of my life so I have experience with all ages. I am comfortable with handling household chores and I'm Pet friendly too! I nanny during the day so I am only available for date night or occasional weekend care.

Hi :) i adore kids which makes me love my job! Occasionally i babysit my family's and friends children. I get along with kids great so that's why I decided to find more families to babysit for. I enjoy making crafts, reading books and outdoors when the weather allows it. I am trustworthy, reliable, friendly and dependable. Adapting to different household environments comes naturally. Light housekeeping duties is not a problem. I can make simple meals too. On my down time I bake cakes and enjoy time spend with family and friends over for tea. ( I'm a tea lover ) I look forward to meeting my new family to babysit for!

Nataliya was kind and fun with our one year old and took wonderful care of her! This was only our third time having a babysitter and we felt so comfortable and confident in Nataliya’s care for our child. Definitely recommend her to anyone looking for childcare. Thank you, Nataliya!

Jade was wonderful! I instantly felt comfortable with her. She watched my 5 and 6 year old in an outdoor setting, due to Covid. She sent me a photo of them looking for bugs and playing, unasked. She had great communication, a wonderful attitude and excellence presence with the kids. My daughter told me she had missed me while I was gone and that Jade was very kind and comforting. Shortly after we got in the car, she asked if we could hire Jade again.

Hello! I have 10+ years of experience as a nanny, I love children and I’m looking for part-time work to supplement my income as an instructional designer. I have experience with special needs, and have let my infant CPR lapse but plan to get it renewed soon. I have several crafts and games I can bring to engage with your kiddos! I believe in encouraging children and creating fun safe spaces for them while they’re in my care. Happy to chat and answer any questions.

"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
