Angel $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Angel-Grace (Gracie for short) and my experiences includes babysitting for the church near my colleges kids (from 6months to 5 years old) twice weekly and also frequently babysitting for a few of the parent's children at their homes. I just recently moved to ft. lauderdale so i am looking to help out some new families and commit to be a nanny for one for long term! I have also been babysitting my many nieces and nephews beforehand, from newborn up to teens. (they were the reason for the major i chose, which is child development). I am also an online student now so i am available full time. I want to build my experience as a nanny to get better with understanding children, which will help with my future dream career in helping them out ! I also want to eventually be able to help with special needs so I am learning about that as well. I'm also a closet organizer and willing to help organize any parts of house that needs it! I am great with cleaning and do not mind housework, best with laundry, also love doing arts and crafts, anything disney, and outdoor fun !

Booked by 6 families in Polk City, FL

I have four children of my own 18,14,11, & 6. I just graduated with my bachelor's degree in BA/Human Resource Management/Marketing. I love children very much. There imaginations keep us young and I learn a bit from them everyday. I live to watch them grow and learn as they develop their own personality and sense of who they are becoming. I am fully vaccinated and practice all safety procedures to ensure little to no exposure.

“Christine was great with the kids and made me feel totally comfortable leaving them. She also picked up and cleaned my kitchen for me! Would recommend. ”

$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m a dedicated and experienced nanny with over 10 years of caring for children from newborns to teenagers. I truly love working with kids and building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. I’m patient, reliable, and nurturing, and I always aim to create a safe, positive, and engaging environment. I enjoy planning fun, age-appropriate activities like arts and crafts, outdoor play, and learning-based games. I’m attentive to each child’s individual needs and take pride in being someone families can rely on and feel comfortable with. I’m also happy to help with routines such as school drop-offs/pickups, homework, and daily schedules. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and your child’s safety and well-being are always my top priority. In addition to childcare, I can assist with cooking, organizing, and running errands to help make your day-to-day life easier. Looking forward to connecting with your family!

“A word of recommendation for Lorena: She has babysat for our children AJ (6) and Margot (2) for around a year now. Lorena is kind and caring and the kids have a great time with her. She is always our first call. She has great experience with children and knows how to handle our 6 year old boy when he is being challenging. Another thing that we appreciate is that she is very responsive on text both with her availability and when we are out regarding the kids. We appreciate Lorena!”

I am an artistic, detail oriented person whom has more than ten years of experience caring for children. I enjoy going swimming with the kids I care for. We love cooking snacks together and reading books after we try our creations. Safety is always a priority when I am caring for children or teaching kids. Listening to music, dancing, acting, building with legos, arts, crafts and completing learning activities together is always fun!

Hi! I’m Sarahlee. I just graduated with my Bachelor’s degree in Child Development this December. I’ve been working with kids since I was 16, I’ve been a summer camp counselor, and for the past three years while in college I’ve worked as a substitute teacher for grades K–12, including ESE classes. I love creating a fun, safe environment for kids and helping them learn and grow. I’d love the chance to support your family!

"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."
