$30 per hour for 1 child

At age 11 i started babysitting for the neighborhood- to the point i was in very high demand and had to learn the art of negotiation. i stayed with the same families for many years literally up until i met and married my husband. we had 3 boys and cherished that experience as they grew into men. in 2020, i began my Nanny journey, and have loved every minute of it. children are our greatest commodity and i believe i have a special gift to connect with children and help them to thrive and develop into the very best they can be! in addition, i have learned how to create healthy boundaries with a family unit by anticipating and being conscientious of family dynamics. ultimately i pride myself in helping a family to thrive as individuals and as a whole. i have learned that each family has their own unique parenting style and its own challenges each and everyday - it’s been my personal experience that i can lend myself into those challenges to lighten the load by my attentive nature, compassion, energy and kindness. i take great pride in my role as a Nanny and cherish the moment’s shared with a loving and growing family.

“Amanda babysat for my two boys (11 and 8) for years and she became a part of our family. My kids love her - she is active, artsy, empathetic, always stirring them in the right direction and patience. We would hire her back anytime and miss her very much.”

Mia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi all! My name is Mia and I am a student-athlete at Simmons University, studying nursing and playing volleyball! I have been babysitting for over five years, and would consider myself exceptionally good with kids. Friends would describe me as bubbly, compassionate, and intelligent. I am also very patient and equipped to care for children with special needs or learning disabilities. One thing that sets me apart is that I speak intermediate level spanish, and love teaching the children that I work with basic spanish. I am more than happy to provide tutoring and housework if requested. I look forward to working with you and your family! :)

Raquel $15 per hour for 1 child

I am currently a college student at Emmanuel College looking for a part-time job. I grew up in a small town in Massachusetts. I’ve always loved children and taking care of them. I find joy and excitement coming up with different activities to entertain them. I am very creative in that aspect. Growing up I would watch my younger cousins when necessary. In high school, I helped out at the after school program and had an internship with first grade classes. This summer I worked a summer camp with ages ranging from 2 years old to 8 years old.

I’m 26, from Northern California, and recently left my law office job to focus more on school. I love reading and have always been drawn to good stories, honest conversations, and anything that makes me laugh. I’d describe myself as thoughtful, hardworking, and a little sarcastic in the best way. Right now, I’m focused on classes, personal growth, and figuring out what comes next.

"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."
