Iasmin 1 review
$13 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Iasmin, and I’m a caring, responsible, and outgoing person who truly enjoys working with children. I have experience taking care of kids of different ages and always try to create a safe, fun, and positive environment for them. I’m patient, organized, and comfortable helping with daily routines such as meals, playtime, bedtime, homework, and transportation when needed. I also enjoy activities like arts and crafts, outdoor walks, games, and anything that keeps children engaged and happy. Besides childcare, I’m also happy to help with light household tasks and keeping things organized. I’m adaptable, reliable, and love building a good connection with families. Originally from Brazil, living abroad has helped me become even more independent, communicative, and open-minded. I’m always excited to learn new things, meet new people, and create meaningful experiences with the families I work with.

“Iasmin took care of our 2-year-old daughter for the past year and she was wonderful with her. She’s caring, reliable, and our daughter absolutely loves her. We always felt comfortable knowing our daughter was in great hands and would definitely recommend her to any family”

Kaila $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Kaila. I've been working with kids and pets since I was 14, and caregiving has always come naturally to me. For the past four years, I have done ABA therapy as a behavioral therapist working with children ages 2-18. I'm also the oldest in my family, so I grew up helping raise all the younger kids. I used to work as a vet tech and I have three dogs of my own, so I'm very comfortable with animals. I'm starting my master's program this fall and looking for a family who needs someone patient, reliable, and experienced.

"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."
