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.

Cappella $12 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Cappella. I have been babysitting for 2 years locally within my neighborhood. I have recently decided to move the professional route by taking my services to this app. To get to know me better here are three interesting facts about myself. I love music my favorite genres are old school R&B, J-Pop, and Psychedelic Rock. I am a nature lover and the last fact that I would like to share is that I have a weird obsession with collecting cups. I am willing to work with any age range, as far as pets I have three dogs myself so I don’t mind pets in the house. I also don’t mind cleaning or cooking if that is an extra service needed from me. I look forward to meeting you soon. :)

"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."
