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.

Alexandra $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Alex and I'm recent graduate of Wesleyan University. I'm offering childcare and household services. I love working with kids and have babysat (around my neighborhood growing up, no full time experience) as well as volunteered at an elementary and middle school in Middletown, CT as tutor and emotional support coach for kids. I have a car and drivers license so am able to drive if necessary. Also, I love doing fun activities like crafts and playing games to help get kids off technology! I feel comfortable cooking, cleaning, and running errands such as grocery shopping. I am comfortable with pets and pet care, and allergic to cats, but am alright with cats as long as I know in advance and can take medicine.

"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."
