I also tutor my own kids and help them with their school work. I enjoy taking the kids outside to play when possible, doing arts and crafts, reading, and other indoor activities. I am patient, reliable, and nurturing. Other relevant information include: - bilingual (English & Arabic) - great cook - easy to get along with - fast learner - fully vaccinated - college educated
Hi there, my name is Amani! I have gained experience working as a childcare provider on and off throughout the past five years, and I absolutely love it! I'm friendly and approachable, which helps me connect with children of all ages. My experience includes caring for children from infants to elementary school age. I believe in open communication with parents and regularly provide updates on their child's day. I use the preferred communication method of each family, whether it be text or phone calls. I am also comfortable enforcing household rules while following the parents' lead. I enjoy playing a variety of games with children, including outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational games that promote learning. I am 24 years old, I have a college degree, and am comfortable with pets. I'm passionate about providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for children to grow and learn. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your family!
Hi! I’m a pediatric nurse with 2 years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teens. I’m trained to stay calm, attentive, and safety-focused in any situation, and I genuinely love working with kids both in and outside of the hospital setting! I bring a fun, patient, and nurturing energy to babysitting while also having strong clinical knowledge—so you can feel confident your child is in capable hands. I’m comfortable with routines, meal prep, homework help, bedtime, and caring for children with varying needs. Whether you’re looking for occasional help or a consistent sitter, I aim to create a safe, engaging, and positive environment for your child every time. I’d love to support your family!
I am a loving, patient, and responsible nanny with over 10 years of childcare experience. I have cared for children from newborns to school age, including twins from 8 days old until age 5. I also worked in a preschool with children ages 2–6 and spent two years as an Au Pair in the U.S. Families describe me as trustworthy, nurturing, organized, and attentive. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and caring environment where children can grow, learn, and feel loved.
Hi there! I’m Hili, a graduate student with a passion for working with kids. When I’m not buried in textbooks, you’ll find me enjoying time with little ones, whether it’s helping with homework or just having a fun time together.

"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."
