$18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in San Marcos, TX

Hi! I’m Zoraida — a 20-year-old college student majoring in Interior Design, and I absolutely love working with kids. I have two younger siblings (ages 7 and 8), so I’ve been around children most of my life and understand how to care for them with patience and creativity. I started babysitting for friends and family at age 12, and I’ve gained plenty of experience with kids of different ages since then. I’m happy to help with homework, crafting, and fun activities to keep kids engaged. I can also assist with light housekeeping, organizing, and tidying up around the home. Just a heads-up: I’m allergic to cats, but I’m totally fine working in homes with dogs! I’d love the chance to connect and help support your family. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to learn more about my availability!

"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."
