Haille $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi im Haille, I’m looking for a family to be a full time nanny for. I grew up in a big family, and being the oldest I had a lot responsibilities. I have a reliable safe car, I can run errands, do house cleaning, cook/meal prep, I’m a full time cook at a restaurant right now so cooking is no issue. Dropping off and picking up from activities is no big deal. I’ve been a freelancer babysitter for about 10 years now. I’ve babysat 6months-12 years. I’m caring, trustworthy, patient, reliable. And I’m here to take stress out of any family’s life by being a helping hand.

Zakhona $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Zakhona and I’m originally from South Africa. I’ve always had a natural love for kids. I started caring for my younger cousins when I was the oldest grandchild at home, and that’s where my passion began. In 2022, I started working with families outside my own and have cared for children of different ages since then. I’m currently an au pair, taking care of a baby I’ve been with since she was 6 months old. I handle everything from feeding and naps to playtime and fun activities that support her development. I love doing outdoor walks, dancing, reading stories, and getting creative with crafts or sensory play. I’m also happy to help with tidying up after play. I’m warm, patient, and dependable and I treat every child as if they were my own little sibling. I’d love to bring my care and experience to your home and support your family!

"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."
