Zoe $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m Zoe, and I’ve been passionate about caring for children since I became an aunt at the age of 11. With over three years of professional experience as a babysitter, I’ve had the pleasure of working with kids of all ages, from toddlers to pre-teens. My approach to childcare is centered around safety, creativity, and fun. I love engaging children in outdoor activities, ensuring they have plenty of fresh air and exercise. I also enjoy cooking nutritious meals and helping with homework and school projects, fostering a supportive learning environment. In addition to my babysitting experience, I’ve worked in special education classrooms for a year with children aged 3 to 13. I currently work as a Registered Behavioral Technician, supporting children aged 3 to 5. I also volunteer at my church with toddlers between 18 months and 3 years old. Growing up on a farm has taught me valuable skills in responsibility, patience, and dedication as I’ve cared for animals such as horses, cows, pigs, dogs, cats, chickens, and goats. I believe in building strong, trusting relationships with both children and their families. My goal is to create a nurturing space where kids can thrive, learn, and play. I’m excited to bring my experience and enthusiasm to your family!

"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."
