Jillian $25 per hour for 1 child

I’ve been working with children for over 10 years, and caring for kids has always been so much more than just a job to me. 🤍 My experience ranges from overnight newborn care and caring for infant twins to working with children with special needs, school-age children, and pre-teens. I’ve also cared for family pets and have experience dog sitting, so I’m happy to help with furry family members too! 🐶 I currently work as a Tech Aide at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and hold my BLS certification. I’m responsible, dependable, patient, and comfortable caring for children with a variety of needs. Over the years, I’ve been lucky enough to become a trusted part of many families’ lives. To me, babysitting isn’t simply showing up for a few hours. It’s building a relationship with the children, creating a safe and nurturing environment, and becoming someone they know and trust. The families I work with often become like family to me, and that’s what makes this work so special. 🧸🤍

Blessing $25 per hour for 1 child

Nurturing young minds is my passion. I've spent the half of my life caring for children aged newborn to 11, in my community back in Africa including toddlers and preschoolers. I find immense joy in fostering their development. I am patient, calm, friendly, and approachable. I support families by providing reliable care for their little ones. I follow the parents' lead when it comes to household rules and preferred communication methods. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational games with children. I am comfortable caring for one to three kids at a time. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my experience and enthusiasm to your family.

Hi families! 👋 My name is Jessell Medina, and I’m a full-time nanny with over 4 years of experience caring for children from infancy through preschool age. I’m passionate about creating calm, loving, and structured routines that help children feel safe, confident, and happy every day. My care style is inspired by the Montessori philosophy, focusing on independence, emotional awareness, and learning through play. Whether it’s exploring outdoors, building curiosity through sensory activities, or encouraging gentle manners, I love watching children grow into their best selves. 🌿 I’m CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, and known for being responsible, patient, and attentive to each child’s unique personality and needs. I truly enjoy forming long-term bonds with families and becoming part of a supportive home environment. I’m currently seeking a stable, full-time position where I can continue to bring warmth, creativity, and structure into a family’s daily life.

"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."
