Suleyby $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Suleyby, one fact about me is that I love caring for others, through out my life I’ve been taking care of my little sisters, my parents, my own grandparents and even some family friends. I currently work at HomeIsntead which is a senior living facility and I enjoy my job. I can also clean, cook (I was in culinary school for 2 years) and run any errands. If you have babies or toddlers that is fine with me I love teaching them new words and even teaching them Spanish if they do not know, I love kids and I’m always happy to care for them.

Ana $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m a single mother raising one daughter, she’s a very smart and ambitious young girl but regardless of how well behaved she is now that she is older, it was very difficult to get here. Like most kids there will be a lot of different personality phases that they go through having experienced it first hand I know how difficult it is to take care of children. I have had experience with my one and only daughter but also in my past career as a dental assistant in pediatric care, I saw all types of kids, kids who are well mannered to kids who who seem to lack that respectful aspect to a person. And through my career and status of being a single mother it taught me to be patient and to understand that not every kid is the same. And thankfully for me personality wise I'm a very understanding and energetic person, I have a true passion for kids and I love taking care of them as I would my own, and no matter the kind of kid I'm babysitting for, I always remain gentle, patient, energetic, and kind! Because sometimes that's all a kid needs.

"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."
