Katie $30 per hour for 1 child

I am a 58 years old mother of 3 amazing daughters and am now a grandmother to a two year old with another on the way. My youngest daughter just graduated high school and is off to college so I am now free to commit to a family for child care or senior care. I have been a stay at home Mom with all 3 of my girls and have been helping with my Grandson since the day he was born. I also have experience with seniors. When both of my in-laws became sick with dementia and cancer I moved them both into my house and provided round the clock care for them for several years until they moved into hospice. I have always enjoyed being a caregiver. It comes naturally to me. I am very responsible, trustworthy and loyal and I take great pride in any work I do. I am CPR certified, have a 2025 Outback with insurance and have a clean record. **I do have allergies to cats and dogs and it can be quite severe so unfortunately I can only work in a pet free home.** Thank you for your consideration

Kareen $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Kareen, and as a mother myself, I understand that nothing is more important than the safety and happiness of your children. I’ve spent years caring for my son and helping out families in my neighborhood, and I truly love what I do. I am an active, hands-on caregiver who prefers to be "in the mix" rather than on the sidelines. Whether we are playing outside, mastering a new card game, or spending a rainy afternoon baking in the kitchen, I aim to make every day fun and engaging. What I bring to your home: I am CPR/AED certified and have extensive experience managing severe nut allergies, so I am always hyper-vigilant about food safety. I’m happy to assist with meal prep, grocery shopping, school pickups, and getting the kids to dance or sports practice. I am a lifelong animal lover! I’ve raised everything from hamsters to a Macaw, so your furry (or feathered) friends will be in great hands. I also have a heart for senior companionship and am happy to assist with errands or check-ins for elderly family members. I look forward to meeting your family!

"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."
