Sharon $30 per hour for 1 child

I've been working with kids for about five years, from infants to school-age, and I adjust naturally depending on their stage and personality. I'm very hands-on and I like having a clear flow to the day so things feel calm and predictable, but still fun. Most days include getting outside (park time whenever possible), making friends along the way, cooking together (and being okay with the super mess), or fully getting into whatever game or story they're excited about. I've worked through everything from diapers and first words to homework and after-school projects, so I know how to shift my approach based on what each child actually needs. One thing I really focus on is making life easier for parents. That means staying on top of routines, communicating clearly, and creating a space where things feel organized, smooth, and reliable, so they can feel confident that everything is taken care of. I'm adaptable, patient, and my goal is for kids to feel comfortable and excited in their day. And learning!

Bimala $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I am Bimala, originally from Nepal with a background in teaching and more than four years of hands-on babysitting experience with mainly infants and toddlers, I provide more than supervision- I offer engaging educational avtivities, and enchantment of storytelling. Comfortable with light cooking and household tasks, I create a safe and stimulating environment. Moreover, the best part of being a babysitter is earning while doing things that I love, like spending time with kids, teaching them new words, and helping them with overall development.

"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."
