Katie 4 reviews
$20 per hour for 1 child

I have been babysitting since high school and have developed a strong, natural connection with children, allowing me to build lasting relationships with both the kids and families I support. I am a very creative person who loves planning fun, engaging activities, and I truly value creating meaningful memories that children will carry with them for a lifetime. Family is everything to me, and I bring that same sense of care and dedication into every home I work in. My experience has helped me become patient, reliable, and attentive to each child’s unique needs. I genuinely love caregiving because I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn and grow. I am also a big animal lover—I have two cats at home and a lab in my hometown—so I am very comfortable caring for pets as well. I take pride in being dependable, compassionate, and someone families can truly trust.

“Katie has been an exceptional babysitter for our family, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She cared for our two children (ages 9 and 12) and consistently demonstrated maturity, reliability, and professionalism well beyond her years. Katie regularly picked the kids up from school, drove them safely to after-school activities, and kept everything running smoothly at home. She was punctual, responsible, and communicated clearly — which gave us complete peace of mind. What truly sets Katie apart is the energy and creativity she brings. She doesn’t just “supervise” — she engages. She came up with thoughtful arts and crafts projects, played board games, organized activities, and created a fun, structured environment. The kids genuinely looked forward to spending time with her, and that says everything. Beyond her competence, Katie brought warmth and positivity into our home. She built real rapport with our children while maintaining appropriate boundaries and expectations. We trusted her fully, and she consistently exceeded expectations. Any family would be fortunate to have Katie caring for their children.”

Meredith $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Meredith and I am a college student at ECU. My major is communications and I am a big people person. I used to watch some kids in my neighborhood and I also participated in Wake Interfaith. This is a volunteer program where you watch children while giving the parents a break as they are in difficult housing situations. I have also pet-sit for cats, dogs, hamsters, and fish. I love to shop and clean so any chores are on the table for me! As well as groceries runs. :) I hope my services can be of use to you!

Len Sa $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello!! My name is Len Sa, and I’m currently a student (online) studying to become a CNA with the goal of working in pediatrics. I offer child care, pet care, senior care, and house care. I love being a babysitter and have over 10 years of childcare experience working with children of all ages. I’ve completed childcare and CPR training, and I always strive to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and engaged. I’m an energetic, patient, and creative caregiver who enjoys planning arts and crafts, games, and other fun activities. In my free time, I love embroidery, painting, and sewing, and I enjoy bringing those creative hobbies into my babysitting. My top three strengths are creativity, patience, and dependability, and I’m committed to being someone families can trust and rely on.

"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."
