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.

Lanesa $20 per hour for 1 child

Hey everyone! My name is Lanesa. I am from a small town in the Lehigh Valley and always have had love for kids. I’m a nurturing, responsible caregiver with years of experience raising my own child and caring for others’ children for over ten years. I’m patient, creative, and reliable. I’ve worked with a wide range of children from babies to teenagers, and also have experience supporting seniors. I love creating engaging activities, maintaining a tidy household, and ensuring everyone feels safe and supported. My favorite thing to do is be a teacher for my son as he is reading at a 2nd grade level at 4 years old. Education and learn through play is most important to me all while being able to create a safe and warm environment. I hope to work with you soon!

"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."
