Mariya Bonney Lake
$18 per hour for 1 child

I am a caring and loving mother of two wonderful boys, aged 8 and 5. Motherhood is a great joy, inspiration, and source of inner strength for me. My children love me very much, and we spend a lot of time together — playing, learning, growing, and enjoying every day. I have a degree in music education for children. I truly love working with kids, seeing their genuine emotions, and helping them discover their creativity and love for art. Kindness, patience, a positive attitude, and an individual approach to each child are very important to me in my work. I am a positive, creative, and responsible person who leads a healthy lifestyle — I don’t smoke and don’t drink alcohol. I love creating an atmosphere of harmony, warmth, and joy around me.

$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Valentyna. I have a medical background and experience working in a hospital in my home country. I recently completed my CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) course in the United States. For the past 2.5 years, I have been working in the United States as a personal caregiver, providing personalized care and support to the elderly. I have experience assisting with personal hygiene, mobility support, accompaniment, meal preparation, medication reminders, and daily living activities. I also have experience working with children with special needs. I am attentive, patient, and able to create a calm, safe environment for children who need extra support and individual attention. Thanks to my medical background and CNA training, I have a good understanding of safety, hygiene, infection control, and basic health monitoring. I am a responsible, compassionate person, and I genuinely care about the well-being of those I help. I also love animals and am comfortable working in homes with pets. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and strive to create a safe and comfortable environment for families. I would love the opportunity to help your family!

I am a published Author to an adult poem book and a children’s book! And most importantly the real reason you’re reading this is because.. I love being a nanny/babysitter and it’s the biggest blessing to be able to be a mom and have my kids meet new friends to play with as well if they were to come over. I am the oldest of 7 and have always been around kids of all ages my entire life. I have always babysat since I was 14 & I serve on the team at my church.

I love being a safe place for people and love to be a blessing for families that need help watching their children. I am an open book so your more than welcome to ask me anything! God bless

Olivia just sent me her UrbanSitter account and ask if I would mind writing a recommendation and I told her as a joke “Can I say horrible things so that way nobody wants you and you can babysit for us everyday!” Hahaha I was joking ofc! But with that being said, my kids ABSOLUTELY ADORE AND LOVE Olivia! All I hear is “When can Olivia babysit us?” Or “Can Olivia come over?” I swear if Olivia could live with us my kids would be over the moon! Olivia is God sent! She babysits for me when I go out with my girlfriends or when I go off for a conference they stay at her place. She always sends pictures and always has the kids doing some activity! The kids love her cooking and so do I lol! She is so kind and I would definitely recommend her to any families looking for a sitter.

"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
