Farhana $19 per hour for 1 child

I come from a large joint-family household where caring for children and helping support a busy home was always a natural part of daily life. As a mother of two myself, I understand how important it is for parents to have someone dependable, patient, and genuinely caring looking after their children. I also worked at a daycare, where I cared for children ranging from infants to elementary school age, giving me experience with many different personalities, routines, and developmental stages. I am bilingual, nurturing, organized, and very comfortable around kids of all ages. Because I’ve spent so much of my life around children, I’m able to keep them entertained, engaged, and comfortable while still creating a safe and structured environment. I enjoy building strong connections with families and making children feel supported, cared for, and happy while they are in my care.

Tanika $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a dependable, compassionate, and attentive caregiver with experience supporting children, seniors, pets, and household needs. My approach is centered on safety, patience, clear communication, and creating a positive, comfortable environment for those in my care. With children, I enjoy engaging them through age-appropriate activities, helping with routines, assisting with homework, and providing attentive supervision. I understand the importance of consistency, encouragement, and building trust with both children and parents. In senior care, I am patient, respectful, and focused on preserving dignity and independence. I can assist with companionship, meal preparation, medication reminders, light housekeeping, transportation support, and daily living activities as needed. I don’t not have experience caring for pets, however I understand that pets are family members and am willing to learn. Beyond caregiving, I am happy to assist with household services such as light cleaning, laundry, organizing, meal preparation, grocery shopping, and running errands. I take pride in being reliable, detail-oriented, and proactive in helping a household run smoothly. Families and clients often appreciate my strong work ethic, punctuality, adaptability, and calm demeanor. I am a good listener, communicate clearly, and genuinely enjoy helping others. My goal is always to provide safe, dependable, and compassionate care while giving families peace of mind. I have two kids of my own ages 17 and 9 girl and boy so I am very aware, caring loving and nurturing. I also have CPR/ first aid

"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."
