“Ms. Aaliyah is an amazing baby sitter. She took care of my 6 month old until she was 1 year old. I had to work a lot & she made everything so easy for me. I know my daughter was safe and well taken care of. I hope she continues to do this. She is amazing and will absolutely bless another family!”

"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."
