Nichole $18 per hour for 1 child

I’m a WFH insurance agent. I’m a 38 y.o. Christian, single female with no kids. However I have been babysitting on and off since I was 12. I have many friends with children, and it is my pleasure to be able to help them from time to time, as some are single mothers, since I’m in the position to help. I’m typically known as the adopted Auntie, as I’m very protective and it’s important the children feel safe in their own home. Especially under my care, as I take safety very seriously. While I am fun and like to laugh, I don’t allow that to take away from what’s important, such as their homework or any obligations they may have. I have reliable transportation, I cook, I clean, I change diapers, and I enjoy quality time with the children instead of only placing them in front of a television. Their responsibilities I will honor, as well as the parents requests. Feel free to reach out for references or if you would like to meet on zoom or for coffee. I do have a business meeting one Saturday a month. I typically get a 1-2 week notice as the day fluctuates. On these days, I am available from the am to around 1pm as I have to travel. Also I currently don’t have a vehicle as my transmission went but can get to and from your house if local.

Hi! I'm Fred, your local manny. I'm a graphic designer by trade, but I have a knack for childcare and am looking for a local family to provide my services to while I embark on my journey to medical school as I work on my prerequisite courses. I dream of being a doctor someday, specifically a pediatrician or a physician who works with the LGBTQ+ community, of which I am a part of. I have 8 years of experience caring for kids of all ages from infancy to young adulthood. I also have extensive experience working with kids with ADHD and other special needs. In my previous role I did light house keeping, homework help, and pet sitting. I am open to more involved house keeping and tutoring if needed, as well as emergency or urgent care services and overnight stays.

"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."
