Kerry $25 per hour for 1 child

Dear Urban sitter families, as a Nanny with an educational background in early childhood development and over ten years of experience caring for children ranging from 2.5 through age 16, I believe I can add a lot of value to your family. I began babysitting at an early age. I knew I always wanted to work with children, and I went to school to get an associate degree in early childhood development. During that time, I worked as a Child Care Assistant in Michigan, where I attended to the needs of over 25 children from 2.5 through age four. In my last role as a live-out Nanny for a family of three, I regularly provided after-school enrichment for the children, planned meals, organized games and activities and completed light housework such as dusting, mopping and sweeping. I excel at remaining calm in challenging situations and possess excellent communication, time management, and organizational skills. In addition to housework, I have comprehensive experience completing errands and cooking nutritious meals. I'm also certified in first aid/CPR ,love animals and I'm an excellent swimmer. Thank you for your time and consideration. With my unique skills, experience and passion for child care, I feel that I can make an excellent addition to your family . Please feel free to contact me!

Olivia $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Olivia and I’m currently a sophomore at Pace University. I am offering child care, senior care, pet care, and household services. I love babysitting, and have been doing so since the age of 14. I grew up watching my younger cousin, as well; so I have experience with children in all growth stages, ranging from toddler to preteen. My responsibilities in the past have included, getting to and from school safely, meal prep, crafts and playtime, outdoor activities, baking, and so much more! I have also been working part time in a nursing home, so I am very comfortable with senior care as well! Additionally, I’d love to run any errands you may have, cook, clean, etc. I have a dog and a cat of my own, so I’m also more than willing to watch your furry friends as well.
