Airam $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Airam, and I’m a caring, responsible, and enthusiastic babysitter and nanny with over 5 years of childcare experience. I genuinely love working with children and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they can learn, grow, and feel comfortable being themselves. Throughout my experience, I’ve developed a strong understanding of children’s different needs, personalities, and daily routines. Whether it’s helping with homework, preparing meals and snacks, organizing creative activities, or keeping little ones entertained, I always strive to make each day enjoyable while maintaining a safe and structured environment. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and naturally creative. I love planning activities that encourage imagination, learning, and play, while also making sure children feel heard, supported, and cared for. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can fully trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, meal preparation, and maintaining daily routines to make life a little easier for busy families. My goal is to build genuine, lasting relationships with the families I work with and provide parents with peace of mind knowing their children are in caring and reliable hands. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and see how I can help!

Amara 1 review
$27 per hour for 1 child

I am currently a graduate from IESEG University with my master's. I love kids and supporting moms and families. The babysitters and nannies I had growing up left a strong positive impression on me. I understand the value of being responsible, engaging, and a good role model. I am comfortable with after-school pickup, snacks, homework, and most of all, engaging in fun activities!

“I highly recommend Amara!!! Amara worked as my daughter's after-school / part-time babysitter a little over a year ago when my daughter was in first grade...as well as occasionally babysitting her at various times since then. She was great!! She did an amazing job and is great with kids. She picked my daughter up five days a week from school, took her on the subway home (~20 minutes), took her to any activities, and helped with homework, etc. She was very responsible and mature and I felt very safe with her taking care of my daughter and taking her places, and she helped with her homework. My daughter loved her as well- Amara was fun and sweet to her and would "play" with her - fun imaginative things. Anyone would be lucky to have Amara as a sitter! We stopped her using Amara on a daily basis because she was studying abroad in Paris but, since she has been back, have used her a date night sitter.”

Theresa $20 per hour for 1 child

I have been babysitting since high school and worked as a nanny after graduating, gaining several years of hands-on experience caring for children of different ages. I studied vocal performance at Berklee College of Music before transferring home during the pandemic and completing my degree in Theatre at the University of New Mexico. My background in the arts allows me to bring creativity, patience, and a strong sense of play to childcare. I love engaging kids through imaginative play, storytelling, music, and creative activities. Whether I’m helping with homework, encouraging creativity, or teaching a child a simple song on the piano, I strive to create a supportive and fun environment where children feel confident and cared for. I am conversational in French and currently studying Spanish, and I enjoy incorporating language and music into activities when appropriate. I have a current drivers license.

Jennifer $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Jennifer, a reliable and enthusiastic caregiver with 4 years of hands-on experience supporting families through childcare, pet care, and household services. After my journey in the U.S. Navy I began my journey as a assistant teacher and quickly expanded into full-family support roles, working with families who needed help with everything from daily childcare to keeping the home running smoothly and caring for their beloved pets. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of caring for children from infants through elementary school age, as well as dogs, cats, and the occasional small animal. I genuinely love what I do — creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for kids while giving parents peace of mind. In addition to childcare and pet care, I’m experienced with a wide range of household tasks including thorough cleaning, meal preparation, laundry, running errands, and light organization. I’m comfortable bringing my own supplies when requested and always take pride in leaving spaces fresh and tidy. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and am known for being punctual, proactive, and genuinely caring. My goal is always to become a trusted extension of the family I work with. I’d love the opportunity to learn more about your family’s needs and how I can 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."

"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."
