Maya 1 review
$17 per hour for 1 child

I have been working with kids for a very long time with family and outside of family. I love having fun and also being open and experiencing New things. I have also worked with a summer camp (Therapeutic Recreation) with kids with disabilities so I am open and willing to work with all types of kids. I’m also down to do long term and look for a place and a family to grow with and learn! I’ve also dog sat and am willing to clean around the house if needed. Will also negotiate price if needed! Thank you.

“Maya is a very sweet girl, she is always on time, communication is on point, she is very flexible. She took care of my 7 year old son and took care of my 8 month old puppy frenchie. Never had no problems Maya is the best!”

Jenifer $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jenifer, I’m 22 years old, and I’m a caring, dependable, and responsible person who genuinely enjoys working with children. I’m currently a phlebotomy student and have hands on healthcare training, which has taught me the importance of patience, safety, communication, and staying calm in unexpected situations. I’m also CPR certified and have basic medical and first-aid knowledge, so your child’s safety will always be one of my top priorities. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable creating a positive environment where children can feel safe and be themselves. Whether that means playing games, helping with homework, preparing simple meals, keeping up with routines, or just being someone they feel comfortable around, I’m happy to help. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your child in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I would love the opportunity to become a reliable and trusted sitter for your family!

"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."
