Brenna $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Brenna and I am a freshman at the University of Texas. I am offering child care over the summer. I have experience working with children ages 4 to 12, and I have been babysitting since I was 14. In the past couple of years I have been a babysitter, summer camp counselor, and an after school teacher at a Charter school. Along with that I am CPR, First Aid, and AED certified. I love being active and doing outdoors activities but also board games. I am very organized and manage my time well because I have experience working in a class room setting. In addition to that it is easy for me to assist kids with any school work they might have as well. Lastly, I love animals so I will feel comfortable working with families who have pets.

Madison $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Madison, but you can call me Madi. I am 18 years old, and I’m from Chicago, but I’ve been living in Frisco for six years, so I’m very familiar with the area. Because of that, I’m also more than happy to set up a meet-and-greet with parents, kids, or pets prior to booking—whatever makes you feel most comfortable! A few things I think you should know about me: I genuinely love animals and being around/taking care of kids. Despite my age, I was a major component in helping raise my 4-year-old niece, Klhoe. Regardless of the ups and downs, I have been extremely ecstatic every second of it. I enjoy cleaning and organizing because of their therapeutic qualities. I also have a fair familiarity in the kitchen when it comes to cooking for the kiddos and making sure they’re well-fed. At home, I have three dogs—a Maltese, a Shih Tzu mix, and a Siberian Husky—so I’m acquainted and comfortable with all dog sizes. I have experience handling both high-energy and low-energy dogs, and I understand how to adapt my approach based on each dog’s individual needs and temperament. Last, but definitely not least, I am a soon-to-be mother, and below I will list reasons why that detail is so important: 1.Natural nurturing instincts: Pregnancy often heightens an expecting mother’s awareness and attentiveness to the needs of children, making her more nurturing and empathetic. 2.Preparation and knowledge: As an expecting mother, I spend a lot of time learning about child development, safety, feeding, and soothing techniques, which are skills I can directly apply to babysitting. 3. Patience and responsibility: Preparing for my baby has drastically helped me develop patience, responsibility, and planning skills—all of which are crucial for caring for children. 4. Genuine interest in kids: As I prepare for motherhood, I have a genuine interest in being around and caring for children, which, from experience, can make me a more engaged and attentive babysitter, rather than someone doing this solely for work. Well that’s a little about me. I hope to meet you and your little loved ones soon!!

"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."
