Retired Registered Nurse, mother of 5 grown children. Love to watch children learn and grow. Very patient. I usually help with household chores when i babysit. I am very observant so nothing gets past me. Love dogs.
“We had an amazing experience with Linda! She was able to keep up with a high energy 4-year old better than a lot of other babysitters we've had. She came fully prepared and even brought coloring books and crayons, which was very nice. My daughter absolutely loved playing with her and we would love Linda to babysit for us again!”
Hello! My name is Briseida and I earned my Bachelor's degree in Social Work in 2017. I am certified in CPR and First Aid. I have about 10+ years of experience providing direct care to children ages 0-17 as a babysitter and in professional settings. I truly enjoying working with children and providing opportunities for them to learn, grow, and have fun. I have flexibility to work during weekends, including evenings and nights. I have reliable transportation and can cook, clean, run errands, and care for pets. I look forward to meet you and your family.

Hello Families and Friends! I am a full-time state certified music educator, and I teach 1st grade-Junior High. I play piano, sing, and compose. I also love hiking, scuba diving, and sailing. I love kids, and I also enjoy tutoring them in additional subjects. Is your child struggling with homework? I can help while also babysitting your child. Please note: travel expenses and time travelled do increase the babysitting fee. 15+ miles is a $5 hourly increase. 30+ miles is a $10 hourly increase. Ex: $30/hr increases to $35/hr. If that is the case, I will verbalize this increase to parents prior to accepting booking invitations.

"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."
