Tiffany $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi. My name is Tiffany, and I offer child care and cat care. I babysat throughout middle school, high school, and this year, and I have watched babies 6 months and older, toddlers, and elementary school kids. My responsibilities included feeding them, giving them a bath, changing their diapers, reading to them, playing with them, putting them to bed, and helping with their homework. I have had cats ever since the year 2007, and so I am an expert on taking care of them. I currently have 4 cats myself. I can feed them, play with them, and change their litter box.

"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."
