Hi! My name is Jacquelyn, and I’m currently attending West Coast University, where I’m pursuing my nursing degree. I’m offering child care, senior care, and pet care services! I’ve been babysitting for as long as I can remember, and I’ve always enjoyed spending time with children. I love being able to create a fun, safe, and caring environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. I consider myself patient, responsible, dependable, and someone who genuinely enjoys helping others. I’m also a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and have been working in the healthcare field for almost a year now. I truly enjoy what I do, especially being able to care for others and make a positive difference in their day. My experience has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and making sure those in my care feel safe, respected, and comfortable. I’m also a huge animal lover and would be happy to help care for your furry family members!

Kaylynn $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m currently a senior at California State University, Fullerton (CSUF), and I have a genuine passion for caring for children and animals! I’m a responsible, patient, and compassionate person who loves helping others and creating a safe, fun, and positive environment. I have over 5 years of experience working with children, including children with autism and different developmental and behavioral needs. Through my experience, I’ve learned the importance of patience, understanding, communication, and adapting to each child’s unique personality and needs. I enjoy keeping children engaged through fun activities, educational games, arts and crafts, and helping with homework. I love being able to make a positive difference in a child’s day while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in caring hands. I’m also a huge animal lover and have been caring for pets since I was young! I have experience looking after dogs of different ages, including senior pets who may need extra attention, patience, and medication. Whether it’s going on walks, feeding, playing, or simply giving them lots of love and attention, I always treat every pet as if they were my own. In addition to childcare and pet care, I’m happy to help with light household tasks, keeping spaces tidy, and maintaining a comfortable and organized environment. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your children, pets, and home. My goal is to provide dependable, loving, and attentive care while making your life a little easier. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Hi there! I'm a 26 years old nanny who's been working with kids for over 6 years now. I'm an energetic, friendly, caring and flexible person. English is my second language and I like to share my native language with them (Spanish). I love arts and crafts and baking and always happy to have little helpers with me while doing that.

"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."
