Hi! My name is Lina, and I’ve been working on UrbanSitter for a few years now. I am an auntie of eight incredible nieces and nephews whom I have helped take care of from birth into their childhood. I’m conversant in Amharic, French, and I am somewhat conversant in Arabic and Spanish. I am energetic, creative, and read wonderful bedtime stories! I can help with all kinds of homework, and can engage in various activities. If there are any particular subjects/activities or developmental milestones you would like me to help with, please let me know! I pay attention to detail & can maintain an organized space during and after activites. I take constructive criticism very seriously and try my best to implement changes immediately. I love working with children, from birth to big kids! Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions! At this time I am only available on an occasional basis. Thank you! -Lina

Hi, my name is Krista and I am a college student home for the summer looking for babysitting/nanny jobs! With four years of hands-on experience, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for kids of all ages, including those with special needs. I am CPR, AED, and First Aid certified and I’m open to watching kids of all ages and abilities. I also have years of experience with animals from dogs to bearded dragons to horses. I can complete house hold chores or provide homework help if need be! I also have a large, safe car and I am willing to drive around your little ones (will need to be provided with booster seats if applicable). If you need a reliable and responsible babysitter or pet sitter, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

“Krista was wonderful with our 6 year old daughter. She was consistently punctual and responsive. We would happily hire her again!”

"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."
