"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Ana $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi families! I am currently a commuting college student at Drexel living in Erdenheim and looking for more babysitting opportunities. I have experience babysitting, working in a Spanish immersion preschool as an assistant teacher, and I recently completed an internship as a behavioral health technician working with kids with autism and other disabilities. I am currently studying psychology and my passion is making positive impacts in children's lives. I have experience with babies, toddlers, and school-age children. Please reach out if I seem like the right fit for your family! Looking forward to connecting!
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.
Victoria $25 per hour for 1 child
I am a 53 year old grandmother of one, mother of two daughters. I am looking for extra work outside of my home- I can also do light housework, overnight stays and run errands.
Tess $24 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Tess. I was born and raised in the Bay Area and have been babysitting for the past ten years. During the pandemic, I worked as a nanny for a pod of four children between the ages of four and eight. I enjoyed programming different crafts and games for the kids to keep busy! I have recently returned home after college, and I am excited to start babysitting again. Please reach out! I have a lot of availability in my schedule. Best, Tess
