Emely $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Emely. I’m a 22 year old working student. I have about 4 years experience in working with kids, especially infants and toddlers. I love working with kids and have a lot of patience for them while they figure out this world. I have experience in Montessori learning and do my best to make sure your child meets their milestones ! I have tons of young energy to run around with kids, I’m first aid AND cpr trained. I’m fluent in Spanish so if youre part of the Latino family or just want your kid to learn a different language, I’m your gal ! I also have college level French, trilingual for the win! Apart from kids I’m also a pet sitter. I’ve got a husky of my own and trust me, no one is crazier than him so you’re looking at a pro in animal taming 😉. I’ve taken care of a few exotic pets (reptiles and birds) but on average I’m mostly taking care of dogs, cats, fish and rodents. I love all animals and have no phobias. Overall I’m a super kind, genuine and bubbly girl. I love all kinds of people welcome all kinds of cultures into my life. I’m a SAFE space for you and your family, hate is never tolerated. All love here <3 I would love to get to know you and your loved one and give you a caring, helping hand to make your life just a little easier :)

Daria $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Lanham, MD

Hi – my name is Daria and I’m a graduate student at American University’s School of International Service. I graduated from LSU last year and am originally from Ukraine. I’m offering child care, tutoring, and household help. As the oldest of six siblings, I’ve had years of hands-on experience caring for children, from newborns to teens. I also worked as a tutor in Ukraine, teaching English, biology, and chemistry to kids (ages 5–18) and adults. I love creating fun, educational environments and supporting each child’s unique needs. While studying at LSU, I worked with two wonderful families, helping with childcare, homework, errands, and more, and I’d be happy to provide references. I’m also a great cook and enjoy preparing healthy meals for kids and families. Whether it’s homework help, school pickups, or tidying up the house, I’m always ready to lend a hand. I’m an animal lover, too! I used to have a big dog back home and hope to adopt both cats and dogs in the future. I’d be thrilled to work with families who have pets!

"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."
