Hello! My name is Zara. I am 27yrs old and a professional dancer. I moved to NYC from the SF Bay Area as a freelance dancer, and now pivoting from my dance career into administrative roles. While I’m job searching, I'd love to take care of your precious kiddos. I am available for occasional sittings. I graduated from Dominican University of California in 2020 with a Bachelors of Fine Arts degree in dance through Alonzo King LINES Ballet in San Francisco. Throughout my time in college and after graduating, I sat for various families in the Bay Area. I’ve now acquired 7 years of experience. I am originally from Columbia, Maryland, and I am one of 9 children. I grew up with many pets, including cats, guinea pigs, a bunny and bearded dragon, so I am very comfortable with any of your pets. I started with occasional sittings, then transitioned to part-time work as a nanny for a little 5-year old girl in San Francisco Fall 2019. Following, I worked in San Rafael Sep 2020-Feb 2021 as a nanny part-time for 5yr and 3yr old boys. Afterwards, I worked as a live-in nanny in Kailua, HI Feb-June 2021. During my time in Hawaii, I looked after 9yr and 3yr old sisters full-time, as well as occasional sittings for the other children who lived on our lane. Ages range from 6 months-9yr. I now continue occasional sittings. I have created some long-lasting connections with the families I've sat for. It is a joy to get to know the kids, and I make it a priority to address the children's needs first, to serve as a role model and be a positive influence, and have fun! Please don’t hesitate to reach out, I am happy to provide any references and speak with you and your family.
Babies/children: I am a mom to a toddler girl, having fresh experience with infants/tots. I grew up babysitting my cousin during summer from 8-13yo, and have 3 years experience volunteering at my local church to watch our toddlers, youth and teens in a larger scale, max 5 kids by myself at a time. I have also tutored during high school and recently taught private art lessons, so I can help with homework or teach a new skill within my capacity to the kids if needed! I am firmly Christian, sociable, energetic and love hanging out with the kids while talking, playing, marking art or making music, and exploring outside. I love being a mom and treating kids like they're my own, and I hope to make positive impacts and lasting bonds with each one. For dogs/pets: Every dog and pet I meet I love like my own! I have cared for dogs and other pets for years starting during childhood, including my own, elderly dogs, medicated and/or diaper/pad using pets, as well as puppies and low-maintenance pets, housesat a house full of dogs, cats and reptiles before. Most importantly, I enjoy every second spending time with animals. I have loved dogs and all critters ever since my youth. I grew up with dogs, reptiles and birds, and have three rescue dogs and two birds currently who I love dearly. Household Services: I have volunteered to clean my local church for 5 years, have housesat for friend's parents growing up during vacations, and I have helped clean up/organize for the ill, disabled and elderly within the church for the past few years. I love helping people any way I can and cleaning is therapeutic to me which is a plus! I do have my own general cleaning supplies that I can bring minus large appliances like steamers, etc.
“ULTIMATELY THE BEST BABY SITTER!!! I have 3 little ones and she makes them so happy. They can't wait till the next time she comes back :) She is so interactive with them. And great at keeping them settled when disagreements between the kids arise. 100% recommend her. Book her today! You won't regret it. She is also great at house cleaning, I originally hired her for that, but quickly realized how personable and trustworthy. A great personality and fun to be around.”

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
