Dannah $17 per hour for 1 child

I am 37 years old, I majored in english and literature so I love writing and reading and I will definitely read to kids. I am quiet, friendly and very understanding. I am helpful and will take my time with kids to give them the best care ever. I have no kids of my own, but I've babysat my younger siblings, nieces, nephews and of course other kids. I love to babysit because it is so beautiful to see the different personalities of such little beings, I love the different ways babies communicate when they can't even talk yet because it shows how intelligent children are even at such tender ages. I love teaching them and I just love taking care of them... Thanks for considering my profile, Dannah. Bless

India $25 per hour for 1 child

I've been a babysitter since I was fifteen years old, and I love working with children. I love reading with children and helping them learn to read while babysitting. I'm incredibly patient and take the responsibility of caretaking seriously. I look to create a fun environment that ensures each child will follow their usual routine. I'm very adaptable, and can cater to the different needs of children and their families. I'm also able to cook! I'm great with both dogs and cats- I often cat-sit for my roommate, and I've taken care of people's dogs numerous times while they were away.

"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."
