Mekdelawit $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mekdelawit, and I’m currently a senior at Fordham University studying Economics. I’ve been working with children since I was 12 years old and truly love what I do. I bring an energetic, easygoing, and dependable approach to every family I work with. My experience spans all age groups from newborns to pre-teens covering everything from school pick-ups and activity transportation to meal prep, homework help, and diaper changes. Alongside childcare, my background includes six years in high-touch guest relations at establishments like Little Owl and Le Coucou. That experience trained me to anticipate needs, communicate clearly, and stay calm and proactive under pressure skills that translate directly into running a smooth, well-organized household. Thanks to this background, I’m very comfortable with running errands, light housekeeping, and household management. I’m also a big animal lover! Having grown up in a multi-pet home, I am well-versed in caring for dogs, cats, reptiles (like bearded dragons), hedgehogs, betta fish, and parakeets. I’m happy to provide strong references upon request to give your family complete peace of mind. I look forward to connecting and seeing how I can best support your household!

Shellie $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Shellie, a caring, energetic, and flexible caregiver with 10+ years of experience working with kids from being a full-time nanny, summer camp counselor, and occasional babysitting. I have most of my experience working with toddlers and young children ages (2-10 years old), and kids with ADHD, selective mutism, and anxiety disorders. I’m currently a graduate student studying child psychology. I’m currently a nanny to a family with children ages 3 and 10 years old. This summer, I’m looking for a family to work with while school is out, and if you’re interested into the school year. I started babysitting when I was 16 years old and haven’t stopped working with kids as I love it so much! When I was an undergrad student I worked as a full-time nanny for 3+ years providing weekday care for a family with children ages 4, 6, and 8. In addition to supporting their daily school schedules and extracurriculars, I planned fun activities at home like various arts and crafts projects, scavenger hunts, and dance parties to outings to the aquarium, the beach and museums. I also completed household tasks like meal prep, grocery shopping, laundry, tidying up and general housekeeping. More about me: Born and raised in Miami Beach, FL, I love spending time outdoors playing soccer, cooking healthy homemade meals, and indulging in painting, baking, playing guitar, and reading.

"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."
