Amarti $40 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am originally from Ethiopia. I have lived in the U.S. for 18 years now. I love learning and spending time with my loved ones. Amidst the pandemic, in 2020, I graduated from University of Portland with my Bachelor's degree in Biology minoring in Chemistry and Neuroscience. Ultimately, I would like to pursue a career in healthcare. Therefore, I have been working as a CNA since graduating. I enjoy being around people caring for the vulnerable, it is a true passion of mine. I love kids and have had previous experience working with children and their parents (i.e. at a preschool/childcare during high school). I believe that my background and skillset will allow me to genuinely care for you and your family.

Ajah $20 per hour for 1 child

I have worked in the education system for about four years, from special education to health assistant and teaching curriculum in general classrooms. The relationships I made with them led me to working with other people in a more personal setting to meet their needs:)

Marie $30 per hour for 1 child

With years of experience caring for homes, pets, and children, I bring reliability, warmth, and professionalism to every family I work with. I began house sitting and babysitting while in high school and have continued to offer these services occasionally as a working professional. I truly enjoy being around children and animals, and I take pride in creating a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment. Whether it’s keeping a home organized, ensuring pets are happy and well-cared for, or engaging children in meaningful activities, I approach every responsibility with genuine care and attention to detail.

Booked by 1 family in Portland, OR

Hi, I'm Madison and I'm a fun, reliable, and caring person who's passionate about helping kids learn, grow, and feel supported. I've spent the last six years working with children in all kinds of settings - as a babysitter and a Live-In Nanny. Those experiences have taught me how to balance structure with fun, keep routines running smoothly, and handle any situation with patience and understanding. I'm also a U. S. Army veteran, so being on time, dependable, and organized is second nature to me. I love creating activities that are both educational and exciting for kiddos whether it's crafts, outdoor adventures, or helping with homework. If you're looking for someone who's responsible, upbeat, and great at connecting with kids, I'd love to help your family out!

"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."
