Navie $28 per hour for 1 child

I graduated in 2024 with a degree in Liberal Studies, with a strong focus on education and child development. I currently work as an English Literacy Interventionist, where I support students in building reading and writing skills through personalized, engaging instruction. I bring over 6 years of babysitting experience, along with 1.5 years working in a daycare setting caring for both infants and toddlers. In the daycare, I was responsible for supervising up to four infants or six toddlers at a time, ensuring a safe, structured, and nurturing environment. My experience extends beyond traditional classrooms, as I’ve worked in a variety of nontraditional teaching and caregiving settings. This has helped me become adaptable, patient, and attentive to each child’s unique needs. I prioritize creating a safe, educational, and fun environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and confident relying on me as a trusted adult. I also have experience caring for both dogs and cats during babysitting jobs and genuinely enjoy being around pets.

Hi there! My name is Grace, I grew up on an island in the Puget Sound. I’ve spent the past 5 years working in tech and now am looking into a new career path. I have a 5 year old niece who I have watched regularly throughout her infant life, and have a history of babysitting and nannying throughout high school and college. I’m great with kids, dogs, and cats! I love to spend time at home and play games, watch movies, or spend time in the many local parks or on long walks. Looking forward to meeting you and your family!

Lillian $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lillian, and I’m a caring, energetic, and reliable sitter with experience working with kids, pets, and families of all kinds. Growing up, I coached a soccer team for kids ages 5-9, which taught me patience, creativity, and how to keep kids engaged and having fun. I’ve also babysat children of various ages, so I understand how to adapt to different personalities and needs. In addition, I’ve cared for both dogs and cats, so I’m more than happy to help out with your furry family members. I pride myself on being responsible, organized, and warm, creating a safe and nurturing environment for kids to thrive in. Whether it’s playing games, helping with homework, or preparing meals, I always aim to bring a positive attitude and a sense of fun to every task. I’d love to help make your day easier by providing excellent care for your little ones! Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’m excited to work with your family!

Rae $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m new to UrbanSitter, but I’ve worked with children for years through babysitting, camp counseling, and volunteering at the Boys & Girls Club. I'll be starting my Master’s in Teaching at USF in the fall, which I’m incredibly excited about. I graduated with my bachelor's from USF with highest honors last May. I’m open to both recurring and occasional positions, including summer help, after-school care, date nights, weekends, school pickups, homework help, and general extra support for busy families. My schedule is very flexible and I’m happy to adapt to what your family needs most. I’m naturally a very warm and gentle person, and I care about creating an environment that feels calm and comfortable for children. I love outside time, crafts, reading, baking, and finding ways to make things feel fun and engaging (without relying too heavily on screens). I want the children I’m caring for to feel safe and happy to spend time with 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."
