i have been working with kids for over 10 years, working with all different ages from 6 weeks old to teens! I was a nanny for years, including being an au pair twice. I have created preschool - style curriculum, worked with families who limit screen time, and adore playing pretend! I have also been a teaching artist in children's theater and a camp coach for circus skills. I love comedy, clowning, storytelling, the outdoors, exercise, and doing crafts. I am an advocate for autistic children and kids with ADHD. I have worked with so many neurodivergent kids, have taught neurodivergent-forward improv classes and I have co-created and facilitate a workshop for educators on how to create a neurodivergent-friendly classroom.

Karly made sure to ask questions and understand how to best care for our kid! She got him to bed and made sure he was entertained while we got to have dinner outside the house. Would definitely recommend her and already have her looking after our child on Friday!

Rent an Auntie! Remember when we all lived in the village or tribe and taking care of each other, our children and our elders was as easy as asking an Auntie to come over and help out? Most of us don’t. But not one to let that stop me, I have claimed my role as “Auntie” both personally and professionally. Do you need childcare? Pet care? Eldercare? I’m your Auntie! CHILDCARE Personally I have many nieces/nephews/extended family that I have helped raise in one way or another, which weaves into my professional experiences as a teacher. Both of which are some of the most fulfilling of my life. From my time as an early childhood educator through my years as teacher and director of a K-8 forest school, being gifted with the wonder and excitement of what it feels like to be a guide to these geniuses that were unfolding in their own unique ways, set me into my purpose. I love to water the flowers and watch them grow. And my training in the Woldorf approach, education in developmental psychology, and experience in Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) has given me plenty to water with! One of my super powers is inventing fun and creative projects and activities especially tailored to the needs and interests of the kids in my care. Is tutoring needed? Is there a lot of energy that needs an outlet? Outdoor activities? Plant ID hikes? A creative outlet? Painting? Sculpture? Board games? Teach cooking or just prepare meals? I’m your Auntie! Do you need someone who has experience with special needs children and those moving through the challenges of ASD? I’m your Auntie! Or someone who used to be a volunteer cuddler at Children’s Hospital to cuddle your little one? Change diapers? Clean messy high chair hijinks? I’m your Auntie! PET CARE Would you like someone whose mom was a veterinarian and has basic animal healthcare techniques and training? Someone who taught on a farm and adores all creatures? Someone who loves belly rubs and ear scritches? I’m your fur baby’s Auntie! ELDERCARE Does Grandfather want someone to listen to his stories? Would Grandmother like someone to cook her famous recipe for dinner? A puzzle to finish? Cards to play? A watercolor to paint? I’m your Auntie! Would you feel more secure with someone who is CPR/First Aid Certified? Who has handled multiple emergencies with both kids and pets? Call up your Auntie!

Shannon is sooo great with our girls 6 and 4 and baby boy. Highly recommend!

Hi, My name is Victoria and I'm currently an infant care provider at Bright Horizons. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching and assisting with care for newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 10 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school and other extra curricular activities, crafts, and tutoring. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a care provider for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. I am allergic to cats mildly but happy to work with families with dogs.

Hello! My name is Ada, and I am an experienced, reliable, and caring nanny with strong long-term references. I have experience caring for children from newborns to 7 years old and truly enjoy helping them learn, grow, and feel safe. Families describe me as punctual, responsible, organized, and loving. I have worked with multiple children at once and have built lasting relationships with the families I support. I am bilingual (Spanish and English), highly dependable, and committed to creating a positive, nurturing environment where children can thrive. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide attentive, trustworthy care for your little one!

Adaluz was great with our 6 year old daughter and 9 year old son. Would definitely recommend

"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)."
