Hey there!! My name is Kaia and I’m currently a rising senior at the University of Alabama. I’m home for the summer and I’m offering help with childcare! I’ve always loved working with kids and have several years of experience babysitting/nannying children of various ages. I can drive to/from summer school, tutoring, and even just having fun during the summer! I’m very flexible this summer and have my own child friendly car to commute to and from wherever needed! I’m responsible, upbeat, and committed to providing a safe and engaging environment.
Hi there! My name is Life, and I’m currently a senior at UC Berkeley studying Legal Studies and African American Studies. I’m offering child care, tutoring, and household support services. I am new to Urban Sitter, I have been working primarily with one family over the past 3 years who are now moving away. I enjoy working with kids and have over seven years of experience in babysitting, nannying, tutoring, and outdoor education-youth programming. I’m comfortable supporting a range of ages as well as multiple kiddos at once. I love engaging kids through creative activities, reading, outdoor time, and helping with homework or routines. I aim to create a calm, safe, and affirming environment where your child feels supported, and you feel at ease. In addition to babysitting, I’m happy to help with light household tasks, including cooking, meal prep, tidying up, organization, and running errands. I follow a whole-food lifestyle myself, and can prepare nutritious meals if needed. I’m responsible, communicative, and dependable, with strong time-management. I love dogs, and am happy to provide pet care as well. I am also a licensed driver. A little bit more about me, I am a hobby person. I love sewing, making herbal tea blends, reading, hiking, hanging out with my sister, watching sci-fi movies, and cooking. I look forward to connecting with families who value trust and reliability, and fun in their caregivers! :)
“Life has been our babysitter for the past three years, caring for our three children (now ages 10, 7, and 3), and we truly could not have asked for a better caregiver. We initially hired her through the Bambino babysitting app, and we agreed to grow together as a long-term position. I was hesitant to trust any babysitter with my 3-month-old at the time, but Life reassured me constantly through consistent, reliable, and fully present support for our family. Life regularly helped tutor our older children with schoolwork, prepared meals, and assisted with my own errands, which made an enormous difference in keeping our household running smoothly. Life actively engaged with our kids, leaning into each child’s individual interests, with focused attention and encouragement. Life balances her school commitments and professionalism exceptionally well. She respects family boundaries, communicates clearly, and maintains strong professional expectations while still creating a playful atmosphere. Her positive spirit helped bring my shy 10-year-old out of his shell. My children adore her and have grown in their confidence since she started working with us. We are only parting ways because our family is moving, and we will truly miss having Life as part of our routine. Any family would be lucky to have her.”
Hi families! My name is Yasmin and I’m a freelance Caregiver. I’m looking to give your child the patience, understanding, and care they deserve. I have experience in seasonal daycare work, drop off/pickup, housekeeping, and animal care. Though I’ve only recently started in professional childcare, the joy I’ve felt from working with young ones has left me determined to immerse myself in the profession. I have experience working with children between the ages of 4 months- 5 years old. I’m interested in working with children of all ages and all developmental stages. Outside of work, I’m passionate about working outside in the garden, nature-based crafts, handiwork, and making creative seasonal and foraged meals. If you feel this aligns with your child and their schedule, I’d be more than happy to share my passions in whatever way you see fit. Thank you so much for taking the time to read, and I’m looking forward to talking!

"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."
Michelle R., mom of two
"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
Heather B., mom of two
