Amaya $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, I’m Amaya! I’d like to describe myself as a patient and nurturing sitter. Children brighten up my day and i’d like to say I brighten up theirs as well. I’m still building my professional babysitting experience, however I’ve cared for children ages 4–7 on occasion (really enjoyed it) and have spent most of my life helping look after my younger sister (she’s two years younger than me, so I’ve mastered how to be attentive, dependable, and approach situations with a firm but gentle approach children of all ages) I may not have years of experience yet, but what I do have is patience, emotional awareness, and a natural ability to connect with kids and make them feel I love creating a calm, positive environment where children feel safe, heard, and comfortable being themselves. I am also extremely big on encouraging independence through younger children when it comes to problem solving, making appropriate decisions, and communication. A few things about me: - I prioritize safe, age-appropriate activities like: board games, dancing, walking, playground trips (I— as a 20 yr/old, thoroughly enjoy playing on the swings myself :), and makeup if you’ve got a doll you’d like to have in my care 🩷 - I’m CPR certified. - I’m a 3rd year undergraduate student. - I understand the importance of structure and consistency. I know how important it is to trust the person watching your child. I take that responsibility very seriously and would care for your child the same way I’d want someone to care for mine. I’m excited to grow as a sitter and build long-term relationships with families who value communication, safety, and energy. Thank you for considering me as a sitter and i’d be more than willing to be accepted into your family as a sitter!

Caron $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! My journey in childcare began in high school when I helped at my aunt’s daycare, and I’ve been dedicated to working with children ever since. For 7 years, I worked with the YMCA as both a counselor and Assistant Director, supporting children ages 5–12 in after school and summer camp programs. I also gained hands-on experience caring for infants and toddlers in the YMCA daycare. I now serve as a substitute teacher with Boston Public Schools while completing my BA in Early Education & Care in Inclusive Settings. This role has strengthened my ability to adapt to different classrooms, support diverse learners, and build meaningful connections with children of all ages. As a mom myself, I understand the importance of finding someone you can truly trust with your little ones. Families describe me as fun, empathetic, and creative. I love making learning and play engaging, and I take pride in ensuring every child feels safe, supported, and valued. My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to work with you to meet your family’s needs.

"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."
