Hi! I’m Shayla—a responsible, warm-hearted caregiver with years of experience working with children, seniors, pets, and busy households. I’m currently a college student majoring in Political Science, and I’ve always balanced my studies with my love for helping others. I’ve babysat for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, and I’m great at creating a safe, structured, and fun environment. I also have experience assisting with elderly care, walking and feeding pets, and helping out around the house with light cleaning, meal prep, and organization. People often describe me as dependable, patient, and easy to talk to. I’m CPR-certified, great at multitasking, and I always show up with a positive attitude and a willingness to help. Whether I’m planning creative activities, helping with bedtime, or simply being a steady presence, I take pride in making families feel supported and at ease. I’d love the opportunity to care for your loved ones and help your household run a little smoother!

Shayla was amazing! My toddler loved her and was so sad when she left. She was on time, kind, helpful, sent me pictures and communication was great! I will be hiring her again 100% — thank you, Shayla!

Hi! I’m Unique, a dependable and engaging childcare professional with nearly 10 years of experience working with children as a preschool teacher, substitute teacher, nanny, and babysitter. Safety is always my top priority. I’m CPR/First Aid and Food Safety certified, with training in major food allergens. I’m attentive, reliable, and committed to creating an environment where children feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also love making our time together fun! From arts and crafts and outdoor adventures to reading, imaginative play, and educational activities, I enjoy finding creative ways to keep kids engaged. I bring a great balance of safety, structure, patience, and fun—and I treat every child with the same care and attention I’d want for my own family.

Unique was great! She arrived early and my baby loved her. I appreciate her attention to detail. She made sure she understood my child’s needs/ routine and was mindful to check how I prefer to receive updates. Will book again

"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."
