Gianna $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a responsible, diligent, communicative, tidy, trustworthy employee. I have plenty experience with kids and absolutely adore them, especially helping them in church Sunday school, along with helping raise my six-year-old nephew from as young as three months. I love to help people, I’m open to any postpartum mothers, first time, or infants, and I’m willing to help out any senior citizens. I am CPRBLS certified. I was in nursing school and completed 40 hours of clinicals in a nursing home and again in hospital, and I’m currently working on my CNA certificate. I hope you come across me for your next night out, date night, or even if you just need a well-deserved break!

Hi!! I am a dedicated and reliable nanny with over 5 years of experience, working with children from infant age to 12 years old.

My goal is to provide fun, laugh filled, loving care for your littles. But I love caring for everything around me so I’m open to senior care and pets as well!

Kasey $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kasey, and I’m 18 years old. I’ll be attending Longwood University this fall, where I’ll be studying Psychology. I’m currently looking to connect with families in the Midlothian/Richmond area who are seeking a dependable, caring, and engaging nanny or babysitter. I have been babysitting since I was 14 and have experience caring for children from newborns through age 10. Most of my experience has been with infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children, including regularly caring for twin 2-year-olds. Throughout high school, I also volunteered in a local kindergarten classroom because I genuinely enjoy helping children learn, grow, and build confidence. I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I enjoy spending time doing arts and crafts, reading stories, imaginative play, outdoor walks, games, and other age-appropriate activities that keep children engaged while encouraging creativity and learning. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with light housekeeping, children’s laundry, meal and snack preparation, homework help, transportation, and keeping play areas organized. I have my own vehicle and reliable transportation, and I am comfortable caring for families with cats and dogs. Families describe me as patient, responsible, attentive, and dependable. My goal is always to provide parents with peace of mind while ensuring their children are cared for, encouraged, and genuinely enjoy their time with me. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and see if I would be a good fit for your childcare 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."

"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."
