Bri $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Bri, I have a passion for helping kids who have struggled with school or been bullied. I believe every kid should have a fun and safe experience with any sitter trusted to be their caretaker. I approach babysitting by getting on each kids level, playing the games they enjoy, and doing activities to fill the time. I love being a kids best friend! I’m happy to prep meals, tidy after playing, walk to nearby parks, and supervise swimming as a soon-to-be certified Lifeguard (this summer).

Myllene $16 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Myllene. I come from a family of eight children, and as the firstborn, I developed strong caregiving skills from an early age by helping care for my younger siblings. This experience was not out of obligation, but from a genuine passion for supporting and nurturing others. Over the years, my love for working with children has continued to grow. I enjoy creating a safe, caring, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I would be honored to assist your family and provide dependable, compassionate care for your little ones.

Booked by 3 families in The Colony, TX

Hi! My name is Marianne, and I’m an experienced caregiver based in Dallas. I have worked with children of different ages through babysitting and as an au pair in the United States. I lived in Connecticut during my first year, worked in Chicago for a few months, and now I’m in Dallas, where I’ll continue working part-time with my current host family after my au pair program ends. I have a valid driver’s license and feel comfortable helping with school pickups, activities, meals, routines, playtime, and keeping children safe and happy. I love caregiving because I truly enjoy creating a warm, patient, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable, loved, and cared for. I’m responsible, caring, easygoing, and reliable. I’m also very pet friendly and comfortable being around animals. I love building good connections with the families I work with.

"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."
