Emma $15 per hour for 1 child

I have over 8 years of experience working with children, starting with one family I’ve consistently babysat for since I was a teenager. Over the past year, I’ve also worked as a nanny for two additional families, providing dependable and nurturing care for children ranging in age from infants to preteens. My responsibilities have included everything from school pickups and meal prep to playtime, bedtime routines, and creating a structured but fun environment. My reliability and strong relationships with the families I work with have also led them to trust me with house-sitting and pet care duties while they’re away. I’ve looked after dogs of various breeds and energy levels, making sure they’re walked, fed, and given attention and companionship while their owners are out of town. My experience reflects not only my love for children and animals but also the high level of trust others place in me to care for what matters most to them.

My name is Emma! I’m a college student looking for some work! I have taken care of my siblings since I was 12. I love children and I think it’s important to not only look out for their safety but even have some fun while doing it! I’m a very artistic person I love getting creative!

Jenna $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Jenna and I’m 22 years old with several years of hands-on childcare experience. I was a full-time nanny for two and a half years, caring for three children who began in my care at 6 months, 7 months, and 3 years old. I continued working with them until they were nearly 3 and 5 years old, supporting their daily routines, development, and early learning. I also nannied another family for about a year, caring for children ages 3 to 7. Overall, I have extensive experience caring for multiple children at once and managing different age groups simultaneously, while ensuring each child’s individual needs are met. Before my nanny positions, I worked at two different daycare centers, caring for children ranging from newborn to 7 years old. I am currently a Lead Infant Teacher (ages 6 weeks to 10 months) at a daycare, a role I have held for over a year, where I focus on providing safe, nurturing, and developmentally appropriate care during this critical stage of growth. In addition, I have volunteered at a special needs preschool, gaining valuable experience supporting children with a variety of developmental and learning needs. I also babysit for multiple families as needed, caring for children ranging from 2 weeks to 11 years old. I am currently pursuing my education with the goal of obtaining my license to open and operate my own daycare in the future. I love engaging children in fun, enriching activities such as trips to the park, splash pads, swimming, outdoor play, and creative indoor activities. I am also comfortable transporting children to and from school or activities as needed. Alongside childcare, I also offer dog and house sitting services. While my professional experience in this area is limited, I have cared for pets and homes for family members and I am a responsible, reliable animal lover with two dogs of my own.

"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."
