Hello, family! My name is Paula, and I have over 10 years of experience as a nanny and babysitter. Throughout my career, I have cared for babies, toddlers, and adolescents. I truly love what I do and take pride in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. I consider myself calm, patient, caring, and dependable, and I enjoy helping children develop their skills at every stage of their growth. I also have extensive experience working with children with developmental disabilities and understand the importance of providing individualized, compassionate care. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to assist with child-related tasks such as diaper changes, bathing, school or activity transportation, preparing children’s meals and snacks, doing children’s laundry, and helping with any other needs your family may have. References are available upon request. I look forward to the opportunity to meet your family!

Sara 3 reviews
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sara, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your children. I’m originally from Colombia but have been living in the U.S. for several years now. I speak perfect English and graduated here with a degree in Interior Design. While my background is creative, I’ve always had a strong connection with children and a passion for helping them grow, learn, and feel safe. I offer childcare services for kids ages 1y and up, including school pick-up/drop-off, healthy meal prep, homework help, and fun, hands-on activities tailored to their age and interests. Experience with age groups: I’ve cared for kids from 3 to 12 years old. My experience started in a preschool setting in Colombia, and since then I’ve worked closely with children of various ages—understanding their different needs and how to support them emotionally, socially, and mentally. Activities I enjoy with children: I love involving kids in creative activities like painting, drawing, and crafts—thanks to my design background. I also enjoy reading, cooking healthy meals, dancing, and playing educational games that are both fun and enriching. Special skills: • Homework help • Cooking nutritious meals • Creative learning through art and play • Fluent in English and Spanish Certifications and training: I have hands-on experience from working in a school environment in Colombia. I’m currently planning to complete CPR and first-aid certification here in the U.S. to provide even better care.

“Sara takes care of my dog Brussels. Brussels is an Aussie Labradoodle. He is my service dog and Sara has helped me complete his training and achieve his certification as my service dog. I trust her with him and she has full access to my house at all times. Sara has taken care of Brussels for over three years and she helps me with all his needs, including vet visits, grooming, and food restrictions. She has been an angel in our lives and we are blessed to have her help us. Thank you Sara for everything you do for us!!!”

"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."
