Booked by 1 family in Mesa, AZ

I’m a 22-year-old senior at Arizona State University, majoring in psychology with a strong passion for working with children. I’m a non-smoker, non-drinker, and balancing my studies and responsibilities. I have extensive experience with kids, both personally and professionally. I’ve been babysitting my niece and nephew, now 10 and 8, since birth, giving me hands-on knowledge of child development through every stage—from diaper changes and bottle feedings to helping with homework and organizing fun, engaging activities. I also work with children professionally and hold a valid fingerprint clearance card, ensuring I’ve passed all necessary background checks. Safety and well-being are always my top priorities, and I take pride in being reliable, patient, and proactive. I love incorporating educational games, arts and crafts, and outdoor activities to keep kids engaged while encouraging creativity and learning. My psychology studies have helped me better understand how children process emotions, learn new skills, and develop healthy relationships. This knowledge allows me to respond with empathy and patience, especially in moments of frustration or uncertainty. I strive to create a nurturing environment where kids feel supported and valued while giving parents peace of mind. While I’m not big on dogs due to allergies, smaller dogs may be manageable for me. I haven’t had experience cleaning up after dogs, but I’m always open to learning. My primary focus is ensuring children feel safe, happy, and cared for while maintaining the routines and expectations set by their parents. Overall, I’m a responsible, dependable caregiver who genuinely enjoys helping children grow and thrive. I bring a positive, caring attitude to every job and am always eager to support families however I can.

Miea $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello parents! My name is Miea, but I love to have my littles call me Mimi. I am 20 years old and have a passion in being part of children’s development and growth! I've created a lovely In-Home Daycare where I offered children an early education with a play based curriculum that builds excitement and the willingness to want to learn more. However, due to moving, I am unable to continue my in-home daycare but it will forever hold a special place in my heart. I even still babysit for two of my daycare families! Building one on one connections is really important to me not only to better understand that individual but to build trust! I specialize in ages 10-month-olds to 5-year-olds, offering age development activities to kindergarten readiness activities through play-based learning and sensory exploration. I can also care and assist with homework help for all ages! I have 7 years of childcare experience, as I started babysitting at the age of 13! I’ve worked in an in-home daycare for 2 years and then ran my own in-home daycare for a year. Im currently nannying two families through the week. ( 3 kids total. 1 year old, 2 year old and 9mo old) I’m currently working 32hrs a week and looking to work more hours with other families. I’m CPR and First Aid Certified I am also here to assist with any light household chores as well as pet care. I do have my own cat incase any families are allergic. ❤️ I HAVE MY OWN INVENTORY AND WILL BRING FUN THINGS TO DO AND MAKE!!❤️

$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Liliana, I’m a recent graduate from Gilbert High school and I will be attending CGCC of fall of next year for my nursing degree. Originally I’m from Colorado and I have been here for 8 years now. Im interested in offering child care and household services to nice families in need. Coming from a big family has taught me many lessons in life. Not only do I have lots of cousins but I also have two younger brothers, 6 and 12. My twelve year old brother has a rare genetic syndrome and is non verbal. Due to his disability I have a lot of basic experience with child care needs. Such as, changing diapers, bathing, brushing teeth, making meals and feeding a child. It requires a lot of patience and love when dealing with children. I am fully aware of the day to day challenges of taking care of a child. They are innocent and deserve to be treated with love and care. My younger brother and I have been hanging out a lot. I enjoy taking him to the park, getting boba and coloring with him. Not only do I help my Mom out with my brothers, I also help her around the house. Doing dishes, folding laundry and making beds are a few of the chores I do in a regular basis. Some of my hobbies are reading, working out at the gym, going on walks, hiking & also going to be starting my own lash business. I’m willing to help families with any household cleaning: I can cook, organize, laundry, and run errands. I’m very flexible and highly motivated and ready to help families out with whatever their needs are.

“Hi, my name is Jada I am Lilianas older sister. I am 22 with a four year old and a three year old. My sister has been helping me watch my kids since they were practically born. She’s mature and very good with kids. She’s always been the one to have a good connection with other peoples kids, they love her and see her as a safe place. She’s has no bad record, a car , she’s reliable and you can trust her with your kids. I would highly recommend giving her a chance! :)”

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
