Lara $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lara, I've been babysitting and caring for children since I was 15 years old, and it's something I’ve always genuinely loved. Working with kids, especially infants and toddlers, has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to adapt to their unique needs and personalities. I find joy in helping little ones learn, grow, and feel safe, whether it’s feeding a baby, changing diapers, or playing educational games with toddlers. Being a part of a child’s early development is incredibly rewarding, and I take pride in creating a warm, nurturing environment where they can thrive.

Miya $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Miya. I’m a mom, so I know firsthand how important it is to have someone patient, reliable, and attentive caring for your children. I truly enjoy spending time with kids and supporting their families. I have experience caring for babies, toddlers, and older children. Along with raising my own children, I have volunteered at my church daycare where I supervised activities, ensured a safe environment, assisted with meals, naps, playtime, and bedtime routines. I am comfortable with diaper changes, meal prep, bedtime routines, homework help, and creating fun, safe, and nurturing experiences for every child in my care. I always respect household rules and aim to make each child feel valued and supported. I would love the opportunity to help your 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."

"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."
