Paige $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Paige, and I’m a caring, dependable, and creative childcare provider with experience working with children of various ages in nannying, daycare, and activity-based settings. I genuinely love being around children and take pride in creating a safe, calm, and engaging environment where they feel seen, supported, and free to be themselves. I’m naturally nurturing, patient, and intuitive, which helps me connect with children easily and build trusting relationships. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities such as arts and crafts, imaginative play, reading, outdoor time, and gentle learning moments that support emotional, social, and developmental growth. I’m also very attentive to routines, boundaries, and family preferences, and I always prioritize safety and communication. Families often describe me as warm, responsible, and emotionally present. I’m comfortable supporting daily routines like meals, naps, homework help, and bedtime, and I understand how important consistency and structure are for children to thrive. I’m also happy to help with light child-related tasks and maintain a positive, peaceful atmosphere in the home. Above all, I care deeply about children’s well-being and believe every child deserves patience, respect, and loving guidance. I would love the opportunity to support your family and create meaningful, joyful experiences with your little ones.

Dakai $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Dakai and I’m 22 years old. I’ve been babysitting professionally since I was 16, but caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I grew up surrounded by babies and young kids, so being around children feels very natural to me. My mom is also a doula and postpartum caregiver, so I’ve learned a lot from her over the years about infant care, patience, and supporting families during important stages of childhood. I have experience working with children ages 0–8, although most of my experience has been with infants and toddlers. I’m comfortable with diaper changes, bottle feeding, nap schedules, meal prep, playtime, bedtime routines, and helping create a safe and calm environment for little ones. I always try to make children feel comfortable, cared for, and engaged while also respecting the parents’ routines and preferences. What makes me a great caregiver is that I’m patient, dependable, nurturing, and genuinely enjoy being around children. Because I’ve spent so much time caring for kids both personally and professionally, I understand how important trust and communication are. I always aim to create a fun, safe, and loving environment where children feel comfortable and parents feel confident leaving their little ones in my care.

"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."
