Hi! My name is Maya and I am a part-time student at UW-Madison studying Psychology, Theatre, and Education. Before college, I was a full time nanny for two elementary children when school was online due to Covid, then switched to part time in the summer for the same family.

Steven $17 per hour for 1 child

I just love children! Their safety is my number one priority. Although I don't have too much experience babysitting, I have taken care of kids before and pets as well. I currently work in the restaurant industry, but am looking to supplement my income.

Christine $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Cottage Grove, WI

I’m a recent graduate of the Physician Assistant program at St. Ambrose, currently awaiting credentialing, and I would be honored to care for your loved ones during this transition. My experience spans a wide range of caregiving roles, each contributing to my dedication and passion for helping others. I’m a former CNA with a strong understanding of medical care and am fully up-to-date on all vaccinations as well as BLS, ACLS, and PALS certified. I spent two years at a childcare facility, guiding and nurturing children from infants to 6th grade, which deepened my ability to connect with and care for kids of all ages. Beyond professional roles, caregiving has been a lifelong part of who I am—I helped care for my bedridden grandmother for most of my life, providing hands-on support and companionship. I’ve babysat for numerous family friends, developing strong relationships with families and children, and I played a significant role in raising my younger brother. Whether it’s children, seniors, or providing general household support, I bring warmth, responsibility, and adaptability to every situation. I would love the opportunity to provide your family with the care and attention they deserve!

Audrey $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Audrey, and I have always loved working with both children and animals. I have experience nannying for a military family with three young girls, volunteered in church childcare programs, and have helped care for my many nieces and nephews over the years. I'm dependable, active, patient, and enjoy creating a fun and safe environment for kids. As I begin building my career in real estate, I'm looking for flexible nannying and babysitting opportunities and have weekday availability. I'm also very comfortable around pets, as I've grown up with animals and love caring for them. I look forward to helping 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."
