Clara Shelton
$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!!!

$25 per hour for 1 child

I've always been someone who enjoys helping others, so becoming a caregiver felt like a natural fit for me. Over the past five years, I've loved getting to know the children and families I've worked with and being someone they can count on. Watching children learn, grow, and develop their own personalities is one of the most rewarding parts of caregiving, and I love being a positive and dependable person in their lives. As I work toward becoming a social worker, I hope to build a career centered around supporting others. Caregiving has allowed me to gain meaningful experience while doing something I truly enjoy. I'm CPR, First Aid, and AED certified through my experience as a lifeguard, and I strive to create a safe, caring, and encouraging environment for every child. I have also been a swim coach for 5+ years and have fostered a fun yet encouraging environment for kids to enjoy the sport as well as grow and feel proud of themselves. I have done a bunch of dog sitting and babysitting. I enjoy cleaning and cooking as well as getting to know the family I am looking after and making them the priority. I'd describe myself as organized, compassionate, and hardworking. In my free time, I enjoy staying active at the gym, reading, and coloring as a way to relax, recharge, and stay creative. I think it’s important to help kids be creative as well as encouraging their curiosity, confidence, and individuality, along with being a support system for the family.

Samara Stratford
$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.

$24 per hour for 1 child

**CPR/FIRST AID Certified** Hi there! I'm Gabby, a passionate and dedicated caregiver with 10+ years of experience in babysitting. I believe that every child is unique, and I strive to create a nurturing environment where they can thrive and explore their creativity. I enjoy engaging kids in fun activities, from arts and crafts to outdoor adventures, all while ensuring their safety and well-being. Cooking is one of my favorite hobbies, and I love preparing healthy, delicious meals that kids actually enjoy! Whether it's whipping up colorful snacks or teaching them simple recipes, I believe that cooking can be a fun and educational experience. As an animal lover, I'm more than happy to care for pets as well. I understand that pets are part of the family, and I can provide companionship, walks, and care for your furry friends while you're away. I'm happy to assist with children's housework, such as tidying up play areas and cleaning up after meals. For any additional housework beyond that, I would charge a fee, which can be discussed based on your needs. I'm a firm believer in open communication with parents, and I'll keep you updated on your child's day and any fun stories to share when you return home. With my own car, transportation is not an issue! I'm looking forward to meeting your family and making unforgettable memories together, while ensuring a safe and joyful experience for everyone.

"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."
