Hello! My name is Dina, I love children and believe they are such a blessing. I’m playful with the little ones and adore cuddles with infants. I have recent and extended experience with both. I have part time, full time, occasional and overnight availability. My experience has been with all ages for over 25 years. Five of those years, my experience have been working at a non-profit organization as a child care provider with all ages, including twins! My preference is working for families who offer long term positions. One word that describes me is reliable, I’m extremely reliable and you can rest assured that you can depend on me. I’m also looking for a family that will offer guaranteed hours. I am also up to date with Child and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED / American Red Cross. Thank you and blessings on your search! Dina

Booked by 6 families in National City, CA

Hello! I'm Cassandra, a dedicated and caring babysitter with over 6 years of experience working with children of all ages from infants to young teens. I have extensive experience caring for infants and toddlers, ensuring they are safe, happy, and well-attended to. I’ve had the pleasure of working with both individual children and groups, creating safe, engaging, and fun environments whether it’s one-on-one care or managing multiple children at once. Additionally, I have a background in working with children with special needs, offering compassionate support tailored to each child’s individual needs. A significant portion of my experience comes from working with families involved in Al-Anon, a support group for those impacted by someone else's alcohol use. This has given me a deeper understanding of the unique dynamics and challenges these families face, allowing me to provide empathetic and supportive care with a focus on their emotional and practical needs. In addition to my babysitting experience, I’ve volunteered with the Best Day Foundation, teaching children how to surf and helping them learn to boogie board. This experience has further developed my ability to care for kids with disabilities in a meaningful way while encouraging their new skills and confidence. I take pride in creating a nurturing, fun, and educational environment while giving parents peace of mind. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning activities, or providing the extra care some children need, I’m here to make sure your little ones are well cared for. I look forward to meeting your family and helping make your life a little easier!

“Cassandra is simply amazing! She is so sweet and down to earth. Our kids really enjoy having her over. She plays games with them and really engages in good conversations with them. We will definitely be having her back. ”

"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."
