Nai $17 per hour for 1 child

Hey! My name is Nai, I am a 19 year old female student currently looking for flexible work to match my studies & figured urban sitter would be the way to go! I am an oldest sister to 3 younger siblings and have a large family so I’ve spent most of my years taking care of children & pets of all sorts! I absolutely love working with kids & animals alike, and also have many years of cooking & cleaning experience to pair it with, so I do not mind taking on any other household responsibilities while on the job. I hope you can consider taking me into consideration for whatever position you may require me to fill! I understand relying on another person, much less someone you don’t know, to care for your child or furry companion can be quite daunting, which is why I pride myself on making sure my clients are as comfortable as they can possibly be throughout the entire process and making sure to build trust, & good relationships with any and everyone I meet! So with that, thank you for your consideration & I hope to meet you soon! :)

Julie $25 per hour for 1 child

I am an experienced educator who has worked with children of all ages, teaching arts programs for kids and teens and serving as Director of several arts schools in the Philadelphia area. I hold two master’s degrees from the University of Pennsylvania, maintain current Pennsylvania clearances, and can support your child with reading, homework, educational projects, and creative activities. I am also a lifelong animal lover. I’ve fostered many cats and rabbits, currently care for a dog and two cats, and have experience with turtles and fish. I’m comfortable providing attentive, compassionate care for a wide range of pets. In addition, I’m happy to offer caregiving and companionship for a senior parent or relative. My summer schedule has flexibility, so if you need a different time range than what I have posted, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming a dependable, supportive, and fun part of your summer schedule.
