Zoe $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Zoe. I recently graduated from Temple University and have over 10 years of experience babysitting and caring for children of all ages. Growing up in a big family with younger siblings and cousins, caring for kids has always been a natural part of my life. I currently work with youth as a dance instructor and financial literacy educator, where I help children build confidence, learn new skills, and have fun in a supportive environment. Families describe me as patient, reliable, and easy to communicate with, and I love creating a safe, engaging, and positive experience for every child I care for. I’m also happy to help with homework, meal prep, light housekeeping, and pet care when needed! 😊

Asisipho $30 per hour for 1 child

hi families, my name is Asisipho, and i bring a strong passion for caregiving that’s been shaped by years of hands-on experience. i’ve worked with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids, as well as with seniors who needed companionship, personal care, and support with daily living. i’m a certified nursing assistant (cna), and i’ve combined my healthcare background with my nurturing nature to offer compassionate, reliable care—whether it’s changing diapers, helping with homework, preparing meals, assisting with mobility, or running errands. with over 7 years of caregiving experience, i’ve become known for being patient, dependable, and calm under pressure. families appreciate my ability to build strong, trusting relationships and to keep a peaceful, organized environment at home. what makes me a great caregiver is not just my skills, but my heart. i genuinely love helping people feel safe, supported, and cared for—whether it’s a child who needs comfort or a senior who needs extra help to stay independent. if you’re looking for someone who will treat your loved ones like family, i’d love to connect.

Sara $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Sara. I have over two years of full-time, live-in childcare experience through the Au Pair program, caring for children from infancy through school age. My experience includes working in a household with four children, where I managed daily routines, schedules, and individual needs simultaneously. I have cared for infants as young as one month old, as well as toddlers and older children, which has given me a strong understanding of different developmental stages and the ability to adapt my approach to each child. Throughout my experience, I’ve developed strong skills in maintaining structured routines, supporting emotional regulation, and creating a safe, stable, and engaging environment. I am comfortable managing multiple children, balancing their needs, and staying calm and organized in dynamic situations. I value clear and open communication with parents and believe in working as a team to support each child’s growth and well-being. As a Brazilian, I bring warmth, creativity, and a positive energy into my care — whether through play, conversation, or simply being fully present in the child’s daily life.

"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."
