Caty $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Caty. I’m bilingual, fully fluent in English and Spanish! As well as speaking a bit of Mandarin, ASL and Korean. I have a high school diploma and a few years experience in taking care of babies and kids up to middle school age. My responsibilities have included helping with homework, cooking, crafts and other activities to keep kids entertained like sports. With babies, I have had the responsibility of bottle feeding, diaper changing, bathing and of course playing! I also have experience with taking care of pets, namely dogs and cats. I have administered medications to pets and have some experience in bathing and grooming. I really enjoy caregiving because I like knowing that I’m helping make someone’s day easier and I love spending time with pets and kids.

Riley $21 per hour for 1 child

Hello everyone! I’m currently looking for a part time position! (Full time down the road) I’m available Mondays and Fridays all day, and Tuesday through Thursday I’m available after 3. Can also do weekends occasionally, and date nights 🙂 I’m Riley! ♡ I’m 19, a high school graduate, and recently moved to Texas from Washington. I’m currently looking for a wonderful family to nanny for or babysit for! I’ve been professionally babysitting since I was 16 and have had several long-term nanny and babysitting positions. I genuinely love working with kids and getting to know their little personalities. I’m very hands-on and enjoy keeping kids busy with play, books, activities, and getting out of the house when parents are comfortable with it. I also love cooking and meal prepping, and I’m CPR certified and have my Food Handler’s Card! I’m big on communication with parents and love sending pictures and little updates throughout the day. My goal is for the kids to feel safe, comfortable, and happy with me while parents feel completely confident leaving them in my care. I’m currently available Monday–Friday and can occasionally do weekends. My starting rate is $21$/hour, varies depending on the position and responsibilities. I’d love to connect with a family and see if we could be a good fit! 😊 I have references and more information about myself, so if you think I’d be a good fit then please message me!

"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."
