Alex $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there - I'm Alex, and I have recently relocated back to the area for the summer season. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I love caring for others and have 10+ years of experience watching infants, toddlers, kids, and teenagers. My responsibilities have included activity planning, driving, tutoring, meal preparations, and event planning. I also thoroughly enjoy organization and work as a household assistant. I can cook, clean, and run errands as needed. Additionally, I’m a pet lover, and I'm happy to accommodate your furry (or not-so-furry) family members. I'd also like to say that as a professional caregiver, I understand the importance of providing the highest quality care for your child in the comfort of your own home. I am committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for your child, while maintaining a high level of professionalism at all times. My experience and qualifications, combined with my passion for working with children, make me confident that I can provide the best possible care for your child in your home, ensuring their safety, well-being, and development are always a top priority.

"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."
