I was a bilingual / ESL teacher for 10 years and have plenty of experience working with children from ages 5 and older. I love the spontaneity and unpredictability of working with kids. I have a dog of my own and plenty of experience with animals, as I also have been a volunteer at PAWS no kill animal shelter.
“Paul noted that he recently joined Urbansitter and our booking was his first sitting job via Urbansitter. He showed up on time, was friendly and jumped right into playing/watching our son Miles who really enjoyed spending the time with Paul. Paul is attentive, punctual, fun, flexible and friendly, definitely would hire again!! :)”

Rachel $19 per hour for 1 child
I am a licensed teacher who loves kids and animals. Besides working my job as a full-time teacher, I have done a lot of tutoring in middle school math and middle and high school English. I can help high school students write their college essays, prepare for English AP exams, or write their junior theme papers. Animals: I have two dogs who are very friendly with other animals, and can look after well-behaved dogs while you are at work or on vacation. I also have a baby, so animals that are gentle and not aggressive is a must. I have done animal sitting for small dogs primarily, though am open to larger dogs if they are somewhat calm and well behaved.

Hi! My name is Amanda and I am looking for fun, sweet, loving families to babysit on the weekends! I am currently a full time nanny but looking to pick up extra hours on the weekend :) I have my degree in early childhood education as well as many years providing care for children ages 2 months to 12 years! My passion is and will always be caring for children and I cannot wait to have my own children to love on some day! I can’t wait to connect and to tell you more about me as well as learn about you and your family!!
“Amanda did an amazing job. She was in charge of our little one at our wedding. She made sure our daughter was fed, clean and having a great time. Our daughter was able to keep her routine on this day all because of Amanda. Our daughter had an instant connection with her and it really showed. I could not have booked a better nanny for our special day. All night everyone kept coming up to me letting me know how great Amanda was. We cannot thank her enough for her patience and professionalism.”
