Isabel $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Isabel and I have recently graduated from high school. I’m planning on going to JMU in the fall. I’ve had experience with watching kids and animals since I was in 7th grade: I grew up babysitting by taking care of the younger members of my family, even if I was still a baby then, too! I love babysitting and I’d be more than willing to help out with groceries, chores, drive around the kids, or even help with cooking if needed. I am CPR certified, Stop The Bleed certified, and I recently became a CCMA (certified medical assistant) certified. I’d make sure that your children have a fun (yet safe!) time with me. Thank you for your consideration!

"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."
