Logan $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Logan. I have had many years of experience babysitting children from newborn to ages 10+. I not only enjoy being around kids, but I also put a lot of effort into giving them appropriate support. My main goal is to provide a safe environment for your child (both physically and emotionally). I work full time during the day but have flexible availability over the weekend, in the morning (before 8:45am) and in the evenings (after 5:00pm). I look forward to hearing from you!

Thomas $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Thomas l. About me, I’m somewhat of an introvert. I keep to myself, I don’t indulge in too much social interaction (unless it’s with the right person/people that is), I’m just a homebody nowadays. Although I do enjoy outdoors from time to time. Many years ago in my youth, I have worked at a bunch of daycare settings before. I assist teachers into setting up activities for the kids, prepare nap times, keep a close watch on them while they play on playgrounds, go on field trips, and aid the kids with their daily tasks assigned by their teachers. as for pets, I have pets in the past and currently. used to have a dog, few rabbits, goldfishes, and three cats. Two whom are my grandmother’s pet from Phoenix, Arizona. She passed away two years ago. So her two male cats are in my family’s care. So taking care of house pets could be right up my alley. Also, if you need your house clean, I could be up for the task. I could bring my supplies from home or if you had some of your own, and I’ll get right to it. Overall, if anything comes up, I’ll let you know the second I do. Thank you so much for taking your time to read me.

"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."
