Booked by 3 families in Prior Lake, MN

Hi, thanks for taking the time to look at my profile. I’m 41, I live is a happy home with my spouse and our 3 year old daughter and our dog (bestest boy ever). I have tons of experience ranging from nannying for multiple families. Including multiples and children with special needs. I also worked as a substitute teacher for a decade. I also spent 2 year in China teaching English. I went to St. Cloud State where I earned a B.A. in Anthropology and Ethnic studies. I also studied Communication Development and Disorders (Speech Pathology) for a year as a post- bachelor, which gave me a considerable background in child and language development. I love animals. I have excellent references and a lot to offer any family. If you are interested in setting up an interview or if you'd like to see my resume please get in touch!

McKenzie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is McKenzie. I am a recent graduate from Prior Lake High School and will be attending the University of St. Thomas next year. I also have a lot of college credits that I completed in high school, so I am definitely able to help out with any homework or summer practice work. In high school I was a fellowship of Christian athletes (FCA) leader, student leader at my church, junior optimist member, laker leaders member, varsity track and field runner, varsity cross country runner, and a soccer player. I have lots of childcare experience. I have been both volunteering and working in childcare for four years. I have been a swim lesson instructor for children of all ages for two years. I have also volunteered at a summer camp for three years. I have been babysitting for many years as well. These job experiences have taught me how to entertain and care for children for long periods of time. Also how to resolve conflicts effectively. I know basic safety and supervision skills as well. I supervise, care for, and entertain all the kids I watch. I love to stay active and busy so I would love to play sports, read books, do crafts, and much more with them. I am definitely a good nanny for children who love to stay busy and off screens. I am comfortable with pets as well. My mom used to watch dogs when I was younger and I would help her a lot. I also have done a lot of dog watching and dog walking jobs myself. I also currently have a puppy. I am also very willing to clean the house, meal prep, or do any chores. I typically try to clean whenever I am able to while babysitting. I really want to nanny this summer so please reach out if you need one or if you have any questions!

Sara $29 per hour for 1 child

A little bit about me Hello, My name is Sara, and I'd love to share a little about myself. I have had the privilege of working as a Critical Care Registered Nurse for over 26 years. While becoming a nanny may seem like quite a career change, I have truly found joy in caring for children and supporting families in a more personal way. I was previously employed full-time by a wonderful family, caring for their 2-year-old toddler. In addition to providing attentive childcare, I assisted with meal preparation, light housekeeping, daily walks, and planned outings that encourage learning, socialization, and fun. Although my professional title has not always been "nanny," I have extensive experience caring for children of various ages, from infants to older toddlers. My nursing background has provided me with exceptional skills in safety, patience, communication, and the ability to respond calmly and confidently in any situation. I take pride in creating a nurturing, engaging, and safe environment where children can thrive while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are receiving attentive and compassionate care. I especially enjoy helping children learn age-appropriate skills such as the ABCs, counting, colors, shapes, sight words, and early problem-solving through play, reading, and everyday activities. As both a caregiver and healthcare professional, I understand the importance of trust, reliability, and open communication with families. My goal is to support not only the children in my care but also the parents by helping make daily life run a little more smoothly. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me. I look forward to the opportunity to support another family and help their children learn, grow, and thrive. Warmly, Sara

I’m a dependable, patient, and compassionate caregiver with a background in childcare, senior care, and community support. I have a certification in Early Childhood Development, have been a nanny for three years, have experience as a foster parent, and am a parent myself.

I’m comfortable helping with daily routines, meals, activities, transportation, personal care, household tasks, and maintaining clean and organized spaces. I enjoy creating fun, age-appropriate activities that encourage children to learn, explore, and develop new skills. I’m also experienced in caring for seniors, including assisting with daily activities, medication reminders, transportation, companionship, and maintaining a safe living environment. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and easy to communicate with. I genuinely enjoy building connections with the people I care for and take pride in providing dependable, compassionate care that families can feel comfortable trusting.

"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."
