Julia $19 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Julia. I am an experienced nanny who loves working with children. I have more than 10 years of experience, first working at an infant-preschool age daycare and then going on to nanny for two families. Some of my hobbies include reading, biking, running, and other forms of outdoor exercise. I also love going on walks around my neighborhood with my dog MJ :). I have my own car and a clean driving record. I am currently looking for occasional babysitting work. I am available Monday-Sunday. Please contact me if you have any questions and I look forward to hearing from you!

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
