I just love children! Their safety is my number one priority. Although I don't have too much experience babysitting, I have taken care of kids before and pets as well. I currently work in the restaurant industry, but am looking to supplement my income.

Christine $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Cottage Grove, WI

I’m a recent graduate of the Physician Assistant program at St. Ambrose, currently awaiting credentialing, and I would be honored to care for your loved ones during this transition. My experience spans a wide range of caregiving roles, each contributing to my dedication and passion for helping others. I’m a former CNA with a strong understanding of medical care and am fully up-to-date on all vaccinations as well as BLS, ACLS, and PALS certified. I spent two years at a childcare facility, guiding and nurturing children from infants to 6th grade, which deepened my ability to connect with and care for kids of all ages. Beyond professional roles, caregiving has been a lifelong part of who I am—I helped care for my bedridden grandmother for most of my life, providing hands-on support and companionship. I’ve babysat for numerous family friends, developing strong relationships with families and children, and I played a significant role in raising my younger brother. Whether it’s children, seniors, or providing general household support, I bring warmth, responsibility, and adaptability to every situation. I would love the opportunity to provide your family with the care and attention they deserve!

Audrey $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Audrey, and I have always loved working with both children and animals. I have experience nannying for a military family with three young girls, volunteered in church childcare programs, and have helped care for my many nieces and nephews over the years. I'm dependable, active, patient, and enjoy creating a fun and safe environment for kids. As I begin building my career in real estate, I'm looking for flexible nannying and babysitting opportunities and have weekday availability. I'm also very comfortable around pets, as I've grown up with animals and love caring for them. I look forward to helping your family!

Hi my name is Makiah! I’m currently a college student working towards a marketing degree and hopefully your next care giver! I currently have 9 years of experience babysitting and caring for children including newborns, infants, toddlers, elementary, and middle schoolers.

"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)."
