Randi $18 per hour for 1 child

I have worked with kids for a while now, it comes easy to me. I did volunteer work on and off with kids for about two years then I have worked with kids this whole time this past year. The age range was wide but it helped me be able to learn new skills, because the most important things when caring for a kid is there safety and happiness. I also understand that a kid is stress full, so I’m so up for taking care of household chores as well! I like to say when I’m put into a situation my great at adapting.

"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."
