Hi there! My name is Cynthia, and I’m a caring, reliable, and patient babysitter who truly enjoys spending time with children. I believe in creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids can learn, laugh, and feel comfortable. I have experience caring for children of different ages — from toddlers to school-aged kids — and I always make sure to keep things engaging with activities like crafts, games, outdoor play, and story time. I’m also comfortable with light meal prep, bedtime routines, and helping with homework when needed.

Hello! :) Life long career nanny here & postpartum doula- having over 15 years experience working with every age group. I have been specializing in newborns- 12 months for the past 5 years through experience and gaining credentials as a postpartum doula & infant feeding specialist. In addition, I am CPR/first aid certified, background check verified & can provide multiple professional references. I am seeking a long term commitment, open to any hours & I have my own vehicle. I have a son born in march 2025 that I would be looking to bring along with me about half the days. I have extensive experience in caring for multiples, so I am confident in being able to care for him while giving your family all the attention deserved and required :) I consider myself knowledgeable, professional and responsible but also super fun, empathetic and outgoing. I'm good with all pets. Let me know if you’re interested in chatting to learn more about each other !

“Kayla is the BEST! With watching our 5 month old, Kayla was spot on with providing loving care and also emphasizing critical milestone development. From tummy time to songs, she was always engaged. While working from home, I’ve observed her in action, attention to Willow was her primary goal. I wish we could keep her full-time, but my schedule just doesn’t warrant it.”

"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."
