Salma $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Cedar Lake, IN

Hello, My name is Salma, I'm a creative 31 years old. French speaker and looking for a part/full-time of babysitting job. I love working with children; their inquisitive attitudes and loads of energy make them a joy to be around. I am responsible and dependable, but also fun and energetic. I am an auntie to 8 amazing nephews and nieces, 12 years old, 6, 5, 4, 3, 3, 2 years old and 2 months old. Allowing children to grow, explore and learn is a rewarding experience that keeps me excited as I continue caring for children of all ages. I love to take care of child and have a good time with them. I have experience caring for infant to 12 years old. Spending time with children is the only work I have encountered in my life that has not felt like work to me. With me, your children will have fun, playing and learning rather than just sitting in front of a television set. I enjoy working with children in the outdoors, creating arts, projects, while making sure your children have a fun time in a safe environment. I enjoy being surrounded by children because of their imagination, innocence, and creativity. I am an enthusiastic, fun, creative, energetic and responsible person. I love playing sports, I played 4 years college Basketball and Soccer, and still play Basketball every Thursdays and Soccer on Sundays. I was a soccer coach for kids at SUPER SOCCER STARS from the age 12 months to 15 years old. I love listening to music of all different genres, reading books, dancing, and meeting people of all different cultures. Learning is a lifelong passion for me enjoying the many different cultures around the world. I have 13 years of experiences, and working as a sitter is a wonderful experience, providing opportunities to meet many families and children of all ages. I am honored to take care of the children I meet, and have a positive impact on their lives. The variety of families that request sitter services continues to make each day I work an interesting and fun experience in my life.

Tobia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Tobia and I'm currently caregiving part-time for my great aunt. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I'm the youngest of four girls and I have a combined count of 35 nieces and nephews including great and great greats lol. So I definitely have a lot of experience babysitting and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 15 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and extra curricular activities. Being a caregiver allows me to thrive in my personality. I have a huge heart, I'm kind, caring, compassionate, reliable, trust worthy, patient, and attentive. I'm also tidy, organized, detailed oriented and possess time management. I cook, clean, run errands, and assist in other areas as needed. I was the primary caretaker for my mom who battled dementia, for over 10 years, so I am very comfortable with senior care. I offer medication reminders, meal prep, bathing and assistance with personal needs, drive to appointments, and perform other tasks as needed. I have 3 dogs of my own, who are my world. I am allergic to cats but happy to work with families with dogs.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
