Marline $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a loving, patient, and outgoing babysitter who truly adores working with kids. I’ve been caring for children since I was 14, starting with infants and toddlers in my family and later babysitting for family friends. Making kids feel safe, happy, and loved is always my top priority, and I strive to positively impact every child I care for. I’m reliable and comfortable with cooking, cleaning, diaper changes, and putting babies to sleep. I also know CPR (not yet certified, but willing to obtain certification). I love staying active, being outdoors, and spending quality time with family and friends and I’ve always looked forward to being an amazing mother one day. I’d love to be someone parents can fully trust with their little ones! 💕😇

"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."
