$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 9 families in Newport News, VA

Hi! My name is Makida. I’m a recent graduate from ODU with a diverse range of caregiving experiences. I've cultivated a strong foundation in childcare. From tending to my baby cousins and younger sister, who bravely manages diabetes, to supporting 2 cousins on the autism spectrum, I've developed invaluable skills in empathy, adaptability, and attentiveness. Additionally, my paid babysitting and nannying roles, including overseeing three children at once, driving child to and from school, and going to local parks. All of which have further refined my ability to provide safe, nurturing, and personalized care to young ones with different needs and backgrounds.

“Very prompt and professional.”

"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."
