Lucie $20 per hour for 1 child

Dear families! My name is Lucie, and I’m so excited to introduce myself as your next babysitter. I am 30 years old and I’ve been caring for children since 2017. I have had the joy of working with little ones of all ages—from snuggly newborns to curious toddlers and energetic school-aged kids. I’m currently a Graphic Design major at Rider University, looking for a career change. However, long before I started designing, I discovered my greatest joy comes from creating bright, happy moments with children. Babysitting has always been more than a job to me—it’s a chance to become a trusted part of a family’s story. I love watching kids grow, learn, and laugh, and I take pride in being that dependable, loving presence they can count on every day. Whether we’re playing outside, visiting the zoo, or building blanket forts at home, I’m always looking for ways to spark imagination and keep things fun. I believe in outdoor play, creative messes, story time, and giggles that fill the room. I also enjoy cooking nutritious meals and finding healthy snacks that even picky eaters adore. Families often describe me as responsible, dependable, patient, and calm under pressure, but what truly defines me is the heart I bring into everything I do. I treat every child as if they were my own family —celebrating their quirks, comforting their tears, and cheering for every milestone. If you’re looking for someone who brings warmth, creativity, and genuine care into your home, I’d love the chance to meet your family and help your little ones thrive—with lots and lots of love! I can also provide multiple references!

"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."
