Carol $30 per hour for 1 child

My name is Carol, and I am a compassionate, dependable, and hardworking caregiver with over 6 years of experience. I worked for 5 years as a Nursing Assistant in Colombia, caring for seniors by assisting with personal care, mobility, companionship, meal preparation, and daily activities. During the past year, I also cared for two children, a 6-month-old baby and a 5-year-old, providing a safe, loving, and engaging environment. I also have professional experience cleaning homes and am happy to help with housekeeping, laundry, dishes, organizing, and meal preparation to keep your home clean and comfortable. In my free time, I worked as a dog walker, so I am comfortable caring for pets, taking them on walks, feeding them, and giving them plenty of attention. Families describe me as patient, trustworthy, organized, and caring. I always treat every child, senior, and pet with kindness, respect, and genuine compassion.

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
