Cristina $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm Maracuya! I have been working with kiddos and youth for about a decade now in community, school, and casual settings. My work as an educator in public school has primarily been with elementary aged youth working with all kinds of kids which has really allowed me to learn just how unique and expansive every kiddo is and how to adapt to their changing needs. I deeply value children's autonomy, joy, and essence! I enjoy working with kiddos from a frame work of play and exploration. While these kiddos are in my care it is my mission to continue sharing in the beauty that is this world and offer ease on your minds and hearts while you're tending to what you need to do :) Excited to connect!

Parisa $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Parisa. I’ve been babysitting for about two years, and I really enjoy spending time with kids and helping families feel at ease while they’re away. I’m a patient, calm person, and I try to keep things light, warm, and fun for the kids I look after. I have experience with basic daily routines like feeding the kids, keeping them entertained, and making sure they’re safe and comfortable. I can also handle pick-ups or drop-offs when needed. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and I try to make every child feel cared for and listened to. If you’re looking for someone steady and kind who genuinely enjoys being around kids, I’d love to help.

"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."
