Ashley $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone, I’m Ashley! Caring for kids has always been a natural part of my life. As the oldest sibling, I’ve been the go-to person in my family for years, especially when parents are traveling and need someone dependable to hold down the fort. Beyond my family, I’ve babysat friends' kids, worked with children through my church’s praise dance group, and I regularly do kids' hair. These experiences have taught me a lot about being patient and making sure kids feel comfortable. I’m very big on safety and being aware of my surroundings, so my top priority is always making sure your home is secure and the kids are well-protected. I’m also a dog mom to a Pomchi! I'm great with small dogs and comfortable with other pets too, as long as they are friendly with new people. I truly understand the trust it takes to leave your children with someone new, so I’m more than happy to do a quick phone call or Zoom meeting so we can get to know each other first. It helps me feel more connected to the families I work with and ensures everyone feels safe and comfortable! I’m reliable, I show up on time, and I love keeping kids engaged and well-cared for. I’m also happy to help with hair or any light tasks you might need.

Hi! My name is Brandon, and I’m 22 years old. I recently graduated from NYU’s Rory Meyers College of Nursing with a minor in Child & Adolescent Mental Health Studies.

Through my nursing career, I’ve had the privilege of caring for children from newborns to young adults. I am CPR/AED certified and highly attentive to children’s needs and behavior, which ensures your child’s safety and well-being.

Greetings, my name is Paula. I am a nurse by trade with 5 years of experience. Additionally I have 5 years of experience working with children which includes: babysitting, pediatric clinic, vision therapist (for children with misalignments in their eyes, traumatic brain injuries, and to improve hand-eye coordination), and soccer coach.

"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."
