Lenaya $13 per hour for 1 child

I’ve been caring for children for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been babysitting for pay since I was around 13. Growing up, my younger cousins were often dropped off at my house on weekends, so I naturally gained a lot of hands-on experience caring for kids of different ages. I’ve also had experience with infants, although that hasn’t been as frequent as my experience with older children. Over the past year, I’ve had the opportunity to spend much more time caring for an infant and have become more comfortable with their routines and needs. I’m patient, responsible, attentive, and caring, and I genuinely enjoy being around children. I’m good at keeping kids entertained while also making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m dependable and understand the importance of following parents’ instructions and maintaining a child’s routine. I’m also comfortable helping with things around the household when needed, such as cleaning up after the children, preparing simple meals or snacks, and keeping play areas organized. I’m someone who stays calm when things get hectic, communicates well, and takes the responsibility of caring for someone else’s child seriously. I want parents to feel confident that their children are in safe, caring, and capable hands.

"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."
