India $30 per hour for 1 child

SCHEDULING: Please reach out. I am very flexible. Even though I have a set availability, I still may be able to care for your kiddos. I DO NOT do overnights UNLESS I have worked for the family before and feel safe. I have over 8 years of experience working with children in a variety of settings, including as a nanny, substitute teacher, tutor, and summer camp leader. For the past 6+ years, I’ve been actively involved in students’ education through both school and in-home tutoring. I have experience working with children ages 4 and up and truly enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and build confidence. As a nanny, my role has primarily focused on tutoring, creating fun and engaging adventures and activities (my favorite part!), and helping with bedtime routines. While my experience has mainly centered around childcare and education, I’m also open to assisting with household tasks as needed. My experience as a substitute teacher, both short- and long-term, has helped me develop strong classroom management, communication, and problem-solving skills. I’m patient, energetic, dependable, and love creating a positive environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. I enjoy balancing structure with fun and believe in building genuine connections with the children and families I work with. A little about me: I love staying active, exploring new places, and making everyday moments fun and memorable for kids. I’m also in law school! I want to work with juveniles eventually.

Booked by 1 family in Palmdale, CA

Hi!! My name is Ashley, I am a business major in college. I have had lots of experience in child care, being one of the oldest of many cousins and being an auntie, as well as working with children ages 3-10 at my church. I genuinely enjoy helping them learn, play, and grow. I find it rewarding to be a positive influence in their lives, watching them develop new skills and explore the world around them. Kids are full of curiosity and creativity, and I enjoy engaging with them through fun activities and meaningful conversations. Additionally, I find working with children to be both fulfilling and energizing, as it allows me to be patient, caring, and responsible while creating a safe and happy environment for them.

"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."
