Karen $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a reliable and easygoing babysitter who really enjoys working with kids. I’m currently a student, and that’s helped me become super organized, patient, and good at communicating things I bring into babysitting every day. I have about 2 years of experience caring for children of different ages. I’ve helped with things like homework, meals, bedtime routines, and keeping kids entertained with fun activities. I’m also happy to help out around the house when needed to make things easier for parents. I love caregiving because I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and getting to know their personalities. It’s really rewarding to be someone they feel comfortable with while also helping them learn and have fun. A little about me: I’m patient, creative, and dependable. I love doing things like arts and crafts, playing games, or just finding fun ways to keep kids engaged. Families can count on me to be responsible, positive, and easy to work with!

Samara $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Samara, and caring for children has always been my passion. I’m the oldest of two siblings and also have two adopted older siblings, along with four wonderful nieces and nephews (one niece and three nephews), so I’ve been around children my whole life. Ever since I was little, I knew I wanted to work with kids, helping them learn, grow, and become kind, respectful young men and women. I have experience working at Nichols Elementary School in Stratford, as well as at two daycare centers, caring for children of different ages and supporting their development through learning and play. I am currently in the process of opening my own daycare because working with children is truly what I love. I am CPR certified and EpiPen certified, and I always prioritize the safety and well-being of the children in my care. I’m dependable, patient, nurturing, and love creating a fun, engaging, and safe environment where children can thrive. I’m also very pet-friendly—I have five dogs and two cats—so I’m comfortable caring for families with pets. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, including laundry, dishes, sweeping, mopping, organizing, and general tidying. I would love the opportunity to provide dependable, loving care and become someone your family can trust.

Clara $20 per hour for 1 child

My name is Clara and I have been a nanny/baby sitter for 10 years and I would love to share my experience and knowledge with your family. I truly feel honored and privileged to have a unique job that allows me to work with so many wonderful families. I am currently working part time with 2 families; the first has a newborn and 2 year old twin girls: the other has a 2 year old boy with a set of 12 month old fraternal boy/girl twins. I also do school pickup, after school care, and date nights. I have been with these families for the past few years, but I would love to find another position to supplement my current positions. I am an energetic, creative, fun, outgoing, caring, and generous individual who puts the safety and happiness of my charges first and foremost. This allows the parents to go about their day/date night with the utmost confidence that their children are in the best of care at all times. I have backgrounds in art, drama, music, and early childhood education. I have an abundance of references from both current and former employers, which will be at your complete disposal. I love games of all sorts, reading, outdoor activities, baking, arts and crafts, and imaginative play. I also enjoy getting the children involved in daily educational activities and the occasional science experiment. P.S I'm a huge fan of dogs and cats!!!

"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."
