Sydney $20 per hour for 1 child

My background includes over five years of babysitting experience caring for children of various ages, along with many years of trusted pet sitting and helping families with light household tasks. I’m comfortable managing daily routines, multitasking, and adapting to each family’s needs while always prioritizing safety and consistency. I also come from a professional background in medical sales, which has strengthened my communication skills, attention to detail, and ability to stay calm, organized, and dependable in fast-paced situations. These skills translate naturally into childcare, especially when it comes to following routines, handling responsibilities, and communicating clearly with parents. I’m patient, nurturing, and reliable, with an upbeat and engaging personality. I enjoy creating a positive environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and have fun—whether that’s through creative play, outdoor activities, homework help, or winding down at bedtime. I believe in leading by example and using positive reinforcement. In addition to childcare, I have extensive experience caring for pets and am happy to help with meal prep, any other light household needs as well as running errands. Overall, I take pride in being trustworthy, attentive, and someone families can rely on to provide great care and peace of mind.

Daysi $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Daysi I love being a babysitter and have been watching infants, toddlers and kids. As the oldest sister in my family, I grew up helping take care of younger siblings, which taught me patience and responsibility. Enjoy spending time with kids and helping them feel comfortable, safe, and entertained. I’m a volunteer/foster in the Humane Society of Charlotte, so I’m very comfortable around pets. I really love dogs and cats! I’m currently a student at CPCC and I work in the insurance industry from monday to friday. That’s why I’m mainly available for weekends, evenings and occasional babysitting (like date nights).

Brianna $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Brianna and I work primarily as a caregiver helping seniors live more fulfilled lives. I have 10 years of experience working as a nanny as well. I'm CPR certified and trained in crisis prevention intervention (CPI), along with de-escalation techniques. I have cared for newborns, infants, toddlers, pre-schoolers (including one set of twins), school-aged children, and teens. I like to keep kids engaged by providing fun, age-appropriate activities, maximizing time spent outdoors, and limiting screen time. I'm comfortable watching multiple children at a time (up to 4) and I'm happy to provide pet care if needed. I've helped families care for their dogs, cats, and exotic birds (40 love birds, one african gray and one sun conure) which was a lot of fun. I would love to help with household tasks such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, organizing, errands, providing transportation to appointments, and outdoor help such as gardening. I've worked as a personal care assistant, nanny, mother's helper, caregiver, and pet sitter. One of my favorite jobs was working in a residential group home where I provided care for 12 adults with IDD, and I've worked as a live-in caregiver where I provided 24 hour round-the-clock care for a client with dementia and COPD. I'm comfortable providing companionship, personal care, or helping your loved one with any mobility limitations. I'm experienced in dementia care, mobility care, and assisting clients with physical therapy tasks. I've also provided temporary assistance for individuals recovering from surgery. I'm comfortable providing care for individuals in times of crisis and you can always count on me to provide quality care for your loved one. About me: I'm currently in the process of obtaining a RBT certification and furthering my education. In my free time, I like to cook, sing, dance, and spend time with friends. I'm passionate about cooking healthy meals, baking, and trying new recipes. I have one tabby cat who lives with me, and I recently helped a friend provide care for their 5 kittens and nursing cat.

"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."
