Rukia $22 per hour for 1 child

I have over a decade of hands-on childcare experience, beginning in my own household as the oldest of six siblings. From the age of ten, I naturally stepped into a caregiving role, assisting with daily routines, school preparation, meals, and playtime. One of my most formative experiences has been caring for my younger brother, who is autistic. Supporting him has taught me patience, adaptability, and the ability to manage challenging behaviors while creating a nurturing and safe environment. Beyond my immediate family, I have been an active caregiver for my nieces and nephews, including caring for my sister’s newborn twins from birth through their toddler years. This experience provided me with valuable knowledge in handling infants—bottle feeding, diaper changes, nap schedules, and developmental milestones—while balancing the needs of two children at once. Most recently, I worked as a paid nanny for my sister’s two-year-old son. My responsibilities included preparing meals, organizing educational play, maintaining consistent routines, and ensuring his safety and well-being throughout the day. This official nanny role gave me professional-level experience in managing the needs of a curious and energetic toddler. I cared for him until his recent transition into preschool. Altogether, my childcare background spans infants, toddlers, school-aged children, and children with special needs. I bring reliability, warmth, and a strong sense of responsibility to every child I care for, along with the ability to adapt to each child’s unique personality and developmental stage.

Ascher $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Ascher 👋 I’ve loved caring for kids for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I split my time between Germany and the U.S., spending many holidays and family gatherings caring for my older cousins’ kids. That passion for caregiving has never left me — from babysitting as a teen, to working with infants and toddlers, to leading after-school and camp programs. I also have personal experience with neonatal infants, as my own daughter was a neonatal baby, giving me a deeper understanding of caring for newborns with specialized needs. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teens. My background includes: • Former 4H camp counselor in Stearns County • Gym coordinator for the Kid Stop after-school program at ROCORI Middle School • Current FIRST Robotics programming mentor for teens in Minneapolis I’m CPR, First Aid, and trauma-informed care certified, and currently taking a Red Cross refresher to stay up to date. Growing up in Germany and traveling back and forth to the U.S. shaped my belief that affordable childcare should be accessible to all families, and my rates reflect those values. I love keeping kids engaged through: 🎨 Arts & crafts | 📚 Reading | 🎲 Games | 🌳 Outdoor fun | 🏀 Sports | 🎵 Music & dance | 🧩 STEM building | 👩‍🍳 Cooking | 🧸 Imaginative play | 🔬 Simple science activities I’d love to support your family and help make your child’s day a little brighter!

Nia $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Nia, I’m mom to an amazing 3.5 year old. I have 10+ years of childcare experience. My most recent nanny experience are this and last summer for an awesome 1-2 year old! And prior to that I’ve cared for kiddos aged 6-12. And of course my daughter’s full 3.5 years of life. We love to be outside, do crafts, and be involved in fun events in our area. We love going to the park, library, lake, etc. I am looking for something more long term, caring for one to two children. I am open to bringing kiddos to activities they may have, helping with schoolwork, making light meals, light housekeeping, laundry, walking the dog, etc. That is all included in my listed rate. I have a clean driving record and background. We are fully vaccinated against COVID, and up to date on all vaccines. (My daughter will be with me when she is not in preschool.) Can’t wait to hear from you! Thanks

"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."
