Kamerin $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Kam 😊 I’m a caring, dependable, and patient caregiver with 3–5 years of experience caring for children, seniors, and pets. I love being someone families can feel comfortable and confident leaving their loved ones with. I’m great with keeping kids engaged, happy, and entertained while also making sure their routines and needs are taken care of. I’m comfortable with meals, playtime, reading, creative activities, tidying up, bedtime routines, and helping keep things running smoothly. I’m also comfortable caring for pets and providing companionship and support to seniors. I’m naturally attentive, responsible, and easygoing, but I also understand the importance of structure, safety, and following each family’s specific routines and preferences. I’ll always communicate clearly and treat your home and loved ones with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and be someone you can count on! 💛

Chiamaka 2 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

I'm a warm and caring individual with experience looking after kids and seniors. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Physics and a Diploma in Montessori. I'm First Aid (Pediatric First Aid CPR AED) qualified, patient, and bubbly. I love creating fun, safe environments and handling household tasks like meal prep and tidying. I'm trustworthy, responsible, and happy to make families feel at home. I enjoy building connections with the little ones, reading stories, playing games, and encouraging their curious minds. For older ones, I love chats, helping with hobbies, or just being a comforting presence. I'm flexible with hours, and I'm looking forward to caring for your family. Thank you!

“Chiamaka was once a care giver for my younger kids. She is diligent and passionate with her job. Chiamaka’s job description was less of her duties due to her unwavering care over the kids place under her care. She goes out of way teaching them by engaging them with activities to calm the kids down. My son was mostly fond of her after school care due to her professional impact on him. I would recommend her for family support, child or adult care. She is capable.”

Hi parents! My name is Ariam, I’m a pre-med and a recent Marine Biology graduate from UC Santa Cruz, who loves spending time with kids.

"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."
