Matigan $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Matigan and I have been living in the Gramercy Park area for the past 2 years. I graduated from Boston College in 2022 and currently work in biotech. I began babysitting for families back home in Charlotte, NC in 2013 and continued through high school and during breaks in college. While at college, I also babysat for families in the Boston area. For 3 summers, I worked as head coach of my neighborhood swim team, where I coached 120 swimmers ages 4-18. During this time, I provided private swim lessons to swimmers of all ages. I also provided babysitting, pet sitting, and house sitting for many of the swim team families. I enjoyed my jobs so much and I am hoping to help out families in the city now that I am more settled! Additionally, I’m First Aid/CPR/AED certified by the Red Cross and I have a year of medical experience as a nursing assistant at one of Charlotte’s main hospitals.

"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."
