I currently volunteer with Kindergarteners through third graders at Calvary Chapel of Delaware County. I also used to work for the YMCA as a school age site intern. Additionally, I’m in the process of potentially transferring into an elementary and middle school education major at University of Delaware.

Roazia $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello wonderful parents! My name is Roazia and I'm currently attending Deltech in the IT program. I am also a mother to two beautiful children, a boy (4 years old), and a girl (3 years old). I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since I was 15 years old. I have also taken care of my own 3 siblings for as long as I can remember. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even homework help. I have worked at a daycare with kids ages 6 months to 4 years old. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks.

Nalo $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Nalo, and I’m currently a sophomore at North Carolina Central University studying nursing. I’m CPR certified and have several years of experience working with children of different ages. I’ve worked at Chuck E. Cheese as a party host for four years and at a daycare for a year and a half, where I’ve cared for infants and toddlers. I also babysit for families outside of work and have experience caring for multiple children at once. I truly enjoy working with kids and love keeping them entertained with games, crafts, outdoor activities, and other age-appropriate activities. I’m patient, responsible, dependable, and always make sure children are safe and comfortable while in my care. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with light housework, cooking, and running errands when needed. I’m available for occasional and weekend babysitting and would love to connect with families looking for a reliable and caring babysitter!

Hi! I’m Jasmine! I am a licensed early childhood educator, working consistently in the industry for over 5 years. I am offering childcare and household services. Caregiving has always been a passion of mine whether it was teaching my 3 year olds what the alphabet looked like or sleep training my infants and helping ease the stress of their families. I am a great Uno partner and love to conquer a puzzle over chill background music. I carry my CPR/first aid certification as well as medication administration and am comfortable preforming errands, such as, meal prep, light cleaning, laundry, etc.

"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."
