Bibiana $18 per hour for 1 child

I recently graduated from college with a degree in Political Science and plan to attend law school in the future. I’m responsible, patient, caring, and dependable. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish and would love the opportunity to introduce children to Spanish or help them practice their language skills! While I don’t have formal babysitting experience yet, I have cared for my younger cousin on occasion and really enjoy spending time with children. I’m also comfortable helping with homework, preparing simple meals, keeping things organized, and caring for pets. I’m excited to connect with a family and provide a safe, positive, and fun environment for their children!

My flexibility allows me to help multiple families. Whether it’s regular childcare, check-ins, or the occasional date night babysitting, I’d be happy to discuss lending an extra hand with your kids!

"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."
