She kept her happily engaged with age-appropriate play, followed routines perfectly, and made us feel completely at ease.

Hi there! My name is Ash, and I offer child care, pet care, and household support services. I’ve been babysitting for over 10 years and have experience with children of all ages from newborns and infants to toddlers (including twins!) and older kids. During college, I provided consistent and reliable care for two wonderful families, one for over 3.5 years and another for 2.5 years. My responsibilities included school and activity drop-offs, meal prep, laundry, reading, bathing, arts and crafts, and creating fun daily routines. I also have experience providing extended overnight care for 24-72 hours while parents were away for work or travel. In addition to child care, I have worked as a household assistant, helping with meal preparation, grocery shopping, errands, and household organization. I take pride in being dependable, kind, reliable and attentive. I love creating a safe and positive environment where kids can have fun, learn, and feel cared for. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

“Ash is the best!”

Hi My name is Alejandra. I have over 5 years of experience caring for children of all ages, especially babies and older kids. With them, I love using art, toys, and creative activities to keep them engaged and help them learn in a fun and meaningful way. I also enjoy helping with household tasks such as cooking, cleaning, and running errands. I’m happy to assist with homework as well! Additionally, I have experience caring for pets and am a big dog and cat lover. In my free time, I enjoy painting, drawing, and creating collages. I am also a proud leader in my college’s Latino community. Working with children brings me so much joy because they always put a smile on my face, and I love spending time with them, watching them grow, and seeing how they develop new skills every day.

“Alejandra watched our 4 & 7 year old girls. She did a fantastic job and the seven year old wanted her to come back the next day. She showed up on time and was professional (and fun).”

I am a Child Development graduate with over 10 years of hands-on experience working with children. I spent 5 years as a teacher and the past 5 years as a full-time nanny, caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I have training in both the Montessori and Reggio Emilia approaches, and I enjoy supporting children’s independence, curiosity, and creativity through child-led, age-appropriate activities. I am a warm, patient, and reliable caregiver who truly values building a strong, trusting relationship with both children and families. I pay close attention to each child’s emotional and developmental needs and believe that children thrive best in a calm, respectful, and nurturing environment. I love incorporating play, outdoor time, hands-on learning, and daily routines that help children feel secure and confident. Clear communication with parents and consistency in care are very important to me.

"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."
