Jenna $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have nanny experience caring for children ages 1 and 3, and I’m comfortable with toddlers and preschool-age kids. I help with daily routines like meals, naps, and bedtime, along with light meal prep and keeping play areas tidy. I enjoy outdoor and nature play, arts and crafts, reading, and imaginative play, and I prefer to keep screen time minimal. I’m patient, attentive, organized, and good with keeping a consistent routine.

Natalie $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Natalie and I am currently a sophomore at Miami University double majoring in psychology and piano performance. Not only do I have experience being a full-time nanny over the summer to two wonderful girls, I also have significant experience with babysitting children ages 0-16. These experiences have truly fostered my love for children and I am extremely passionate about creating a safe, stimulating, and of course fun environment for kids of all age ranges, genders, backgrounds, etc. I have a very lively, bubbly personality which allows me to connect with kids and keep up with them when it comes down to play time. I also pride myself in my patience and my ability to remain calm in stressful situations, especially when resolving conflict. I am CPR certified and first-aid trained which is a skill I have sharpened through my years of work as a lifeguard. Overall, I really love to be a safe space for kids to be their authentic self and aim to create a supportive and fun environment both for the kids and for the parents as well.

Journie $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Journie! 💕 I’m a college student, athlete, and future teacher who loves staying active and spending time with kids. I played basketball at Morton College and have wrestled since sixth grade, including competing in freestyle wrestling at Fargo and receiving a wrestling scholarship. Outside of sports, I love being outdoors, exploring nature, reading, and singing. I’m also studying Early Childhood Education because I hope to become a teacher one day. I’ve been working with children for almost three years as a kids counselor at my local park district. I spent two years with the Mavericks program, working with K–3rd graders, and this year I work with Trailblazers, working with 3rd–6th graders. I help supervise kids, organize activities, play sports like basketball and soccer, and even help run sports programs at the park district. I’m energetic, patient, responsible, and love creating a safe and fun environment where kids can be themselves!

Adrienne $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m a caregiver with over seven years of combined babysitting and professional caregiving experience. I currently serve weekly in my church’s children’s ministry, where I care for infants through 12-year-olds, including children with developmental and physical disabilities. Thank you for taking the time to read my bio! You are about to read a fairly in-depth amount of information, but I hope it gives you a clear picture of the kind of caregiver I am and strive to be. Happy reading!! I love meeting children where they are, building trust at their own pace, and creating a space where they feel safe, confident, and excited to learn. I’m a very hands-on and engaged caregiver. You’ll usually find me joining in on playground adventures, board games, crafts, baking, reading stories, outdoor play, or homework time right alongside the children. I believe some of the best learning happens naturally through play, conversation, and everyday moments. I believe every interaction with a child is an opportunity to build trust and confidence. I want the children I care for to know they are safe, respected, and heard, while also experiencing what healthy, dependable relationships look like through everyday interactions. My background in professional caregiving and social services has taught me to remain calm, patient, and dependable while providing compassionate, individualized care. I’m comfortable with infant care, bottle feeding, diaper changes, meal preparation, bedtime routines, bath time, tutoring, light housekeeping, laundry, and pet care. Every family is different, and I truly value following your routines, respecting your parenting style, and maintaining open communication so you always feel informed and confident while you’re away. Families describe me as patient, trustworthy, and reliable. My goal is to provide more than just childcare, I want your children to feel loved, safe, seen, and genuinely cared for. And also, to have fun while we’re together.

"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."
