Susanna $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have been babysitting for about 9 years now and have experience with kids of many ages. I am currently a college student and have recently worked as a swim instructor, so I’m very comfortable caring for children in a way that is safe, fun, and engaging. I can help with homework, prepare meals, and keep kids entertained with games and activities. I’m responsible, patient, and reliable and I always try my absolute best to create a positive environment for both kids and parents.

Hi, my name is Kimberly. I’ve been babysitting for a while now I started off babysitting my nephew when I was young. I loved it so much I started looking into more babysitting jobs and I now have more than 2 years of experience. I also love doing other chores such as laundry and mild cleaning. I love cooking especially some shrimp alfredo pasta yumm! I love making snacks for the kids and creating fun activities for them. Especially art activities and baking with them! I have experience walking dogs as well. I love pets a lot and look forward to seeing families with their fur babies :)

Katelin $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kate, and I’m a certified educator with a strong background in Montessori education, early childhood and elementary education, special education, general education, and family support. I hold dual certification in Early Childhood Education and Childhood Education, with training and experience supporting children across both general and special education settings. My background includes working in Montessori school environments, supporting student programming, partnering closely with families, and serving as a trusted point of communication between parents, children, teachers, and school leadership. What makes me stand out is the combination of warmth, structure, and professionalism I bring into a home. I understand child development, routines, emotional regulation, independence-building, and the importance of meeting each child where they are. I’m calm, patient, highly organized, and intentional about creating an environment where children feel safe, respected, and engaged. I also love language learning and cultural curiosity. I have studied Spanish, Italian, Chinese, and music, and I enjoy incorporating songs, conversation, reading, creative play, and age-appropriate learning into my time with children when families are interested. Professionally, I’ve worked closely with busy families, school communities, and executive leadership, so I understand the importance of trust, discretion, reliability, and clear communication. I’m especially comfortable with school-aged children and can support homework, reading, routines, creative activities, after-school transitions, bedtime, snacks/meals, and child-related tidying. I’m available for flexible evening and weekend babysitting, including date nights, occasional care, homework support, and family coverage. My goal is to provide care that feels warm, thoughtful, and dependable — so parents can feel fully at ease and children can feel genuinely cared for.

Luci 1 review
$32 per hour for 1 child

Hi parents! 😊 Do you need a part-time sitter? I’m available for weekday/daytime childcare. I’m Luci, a recent Middlebury College graduate with degrees in Psychology (with a concentration in Child Development) and Studio Art. I’m also certified as a restorative justice facilitator and in child mental health crisis intervention. I have 4 years of experience babysitting for children ages 12 months–10 years. I’ve also taught art to young children in nonprofit early education settings. My approach to childcare aligns closely with the Montessori philosophy. I engage directly with children through play, encourage imagination and creativity, and am happy to take them to enrichment activities. If you’re looking for childcare or would like to chat more about what your family needs, feel free to reach out! I’d love to connect.

“with luci, i experience a trust, ease, and grounded sense of responsibility in a caregiver. at the same time, luci is extremely light, creative, and finding fun with my 10 year old son. you'll see that luci is consistently accountable for her time as well as lovely, considerate, and understanding of the pivotal role she plays in the daily schedule and mind of a young child. highly recommend :)”

Hello. I am a home organizer and love creating systems that work for your life. I work in corporate, the majority of my friends are childless and I miss spending time with children after growing up surrounded by them. That's why I am on Urban Sitter. I also speak Spanish and can incorporate that into childcare. Regarding experience, most of it involves children aged 9 - 12, but in the past two years, I have looked after newborns to 2yrs old. I'm a dog lover and dog sitter. I used to volunteer at a no-kill shelter and have experience with dogs and some behavioral issues.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
