Hi! My name is Chloe and I will be a Senior at the University of Texas at Austin next August. I graduated from Irvington High School in 2021 and am from Westchester, NY. I am studying Special Education at UT Austin and plan to become an Elementary school teacher post graduation. My friends and family would describe me as responsible, caring, and creative. My experience with children includes, babysitting for multiple families since I was 13 years old, looking after my twin brothers who are 8 years younger, teaching English to elementary school students in Chiang Mai, Thailand and San Isidro, Costa Rica, teaching weekly mental health lessons at elementary while in Austin, volunteering at the Texas School for the Blind and Visually impaired through my sorority Delta Gamma, teaching tennis lessons to children, working at art studio and children’s birthday parties, working with the Best Buddies program from individuals with intellectual disabilities and tutoring. A little about me, I come from a family of six and the oldest out of my four siblings. I was varsity tennis captain in high school and I play pickle ball, paddle and tennis competitively. I love service, traveling, fashion, art, indoor cycling and yoga. Additionally, I founded the teensGLAM4GOOD chapter a part of the nonprofit GLAM4GOOD and have been involved with the organization for 5 years.

About the review on my profile the guy offered the same job to me and my sister so we assumed it was a scam hence I didn’t go. My name is Lerato. I am 27 years old. I am from South Africa, I have just finished my aupair program (I stayed with one family for 2 years. I loved the kids and they loved me too) and looking for a babysitting job. I am a kind and a very patient person you can always trust me with your kids. I cared for 2 kids in my 2 years of being an aupair. My youngest host kid was 4 months when I got here so I have experience with infants. I am currently working for another family 2 days a week.

"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."
