Najah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Najah. I am 21 years old with multiple years of hands-on childcare experience in daycare settings and private babysitting. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children, and I truly enjoy building bonds with every child I care for. I’m patient, responsible, and very nurturing. I love creating fun activities, helping with homework, supporting routines, and keeping children engaged while parents are away. Safety is always my #1 priority, and I communicate clearly with families to make sure everyone feels comfortable. I’m available for part-time, occasional, or full-time care, and I’m confident I can be a reliable and positive addition to your family’s daily routine.

Deisha $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Deisha, and I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I am a dependable, caring, and patient caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children, a role I genuinely love and am passionate about. Although I have not worked as a nanny recently, I have spent the past 5+ years working as a social worker, where I have continued to work closely with children and families. This experience has strengthened my communication, patience, problem-solving, and caregiving skills. I have experience working with children of all ages, including children on the autism spectrum, and I understand that every child has their own personality, needs, and way of learning. I am attentive, understanding, and enjoy creating engaging, hands-on activities such as arts and crafts, learning games, and imaginative play. I believe a little laughter and creativity can go a long way in helping children feel comfortable and confident. I take pride in creating a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment while assisting with daily routines, meals, homework, and activities. My goal is to provide families with dependable care while creating a warm environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to grow.

"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."
