Molly $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Molly, I’m a full-time Montessori infant teacher, and I have experience working with children from 6 months to 13 years old! I'm passionate about the Montessori philosophy and love creating child-led experiences that encourage independence, creativity, and curiosity. Some of my favorite activities are making art, reading, spending time outdoors, and exploring nature. I'm looking for a part-time evening position (around 6–11 PM) with a family I'd love to build a long-term relationship with, ideally growing into a full-time role. P.S. I'm allergic to cats, but I'm happy to care for any other pets!

Kia 1 review
$27 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Kia! I’m a 27-year-old sitter with over a decade of experience caring for kids, pets, and homes and truly love what I do. Whether I’m building forts with little ones, cuddling with your pets, or making sure your home stays just the way you left it- I bring care, calm, and a personal touch to every job. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, a former lifeguard, and am available to teach swim lessons so you can count on me to keep things safe while still having fun. I’ve also worked in corporate finance, which taught me how to be dependable, detail-oriented, and respectful of people’s time and space. I’ve been a pet owner myself, and I know how important it is to find someone you trust. I’m the kind of sitter who sends updates, leaves things better than I found them, and treats every child or pet like they’re part of my own circle. When I’m not working, I’m usually outside staying active, reading a good book, baking a sweet treat, or hanging out with friends. If you're looking for someone warm, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with- I’d love to connect!

“Kia is thoughtful, responsible and incredibly patient. As a former teacher, I am so impressed to see how attentive and genuinely caring she is with children of all ages. I’ve seen firsthand how naturally she connects with kids and you can tell she genuinely enjoys spending time with them as well. Kia is always on time and makes sure to put the children’s and parents needs first.”

"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."
