Zephaniah $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Zephaniah! I’m 19 years old, have my own reliable transportation. While I’m new to babysitting through this app, I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for friends’ and family members’ children—always receiving positive feedback! I truly enjoy working with kids and making a difference in their lives. I’m respectful of every family’s rules and will always check in before making any decisions. I also love cooking (just let me know about any allergies), playing games, keeping kids entertained, and helping with homework. Plus, I don’t mind tidying up to make things easier for parents. Caring for children is something I’m passionate about, and I look forward to bringing a fun, safe, and supportive environment to every family I work with!

Malgorzata $20 per hour for 1 child

I have been working with seniors for 17 years. I am a loyal and caring person who takes great pride in my job. Over the years, I have worked with many different people who required personalized care such as mental disabilities like Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, depression and anxiety. Many of my past clients had serious health concerns such as physical disabilities that required the use of a wheelchair or walker. Previously, I have worked with people with diabetes, heart disease, lung disease, and more. I am experienced in administrating medications, wound care and toileting. I am a very punctual person and I do not have many distractions in my personal life.

"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."
