Hi! My name is McKenzi, and I’m a high school senior offering childcare and household services! I’ve babysat throughout high school and have experience caring for multiple children at once, including a baby, toddler, and elementary-aged child! For the past three summers, I’ve worked as a lifeguard and swim instructor teaching infants through 18-year-olds, and most recently coached kids on the Centennial Stingrays swim team. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, a certified assistant teacher through my COOP and child development programs at my high school, and have classroom experience as an assistant teacher. I’m organized, alert, and dependable, and I’m happy to help with pets and light housekeeping. I’m also bubbly, creative, and love making kids feel safe, supported, and excited to learn.
Coming from an education background, I have worked with children/adolescents from the ages of 10 to 17 for over 8 years! I love working with children, encouraging confidence and curiosity is my fortè! I am a strong believer in reading to kids all the time, even during summer break!
“She made it super easy for me to go on vacation and be at peace. She constantly sends me photo updates ”
Hi!! My name is Ashley and I can't wait to meet you and your little ones. I'm BLS CPR certified and have 3 years of paid babysitting experience, along with a lifetime of unpaid experience caring for my younger siblings and relatives. As the oldest of four, I've been surrounded by children my whole life, and it's something I genuinely love. In my freetime you can usually find me reading a good book, taking photos, or spending time at church a couple of times a week. My faith has taught me the importance of kindness, patience, and serving others, which I strive to bring into everything I do. My biggest priority is making sure your children are safe while having fun. I can do light housekeeping, meals, transportation, bedtime, etc. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your children with someone, and I will always do my best to give you peace of mind while you're away.
“Ashley is very patient, caring and loving. My kids loved her. We were sad when she moved to a different state. Ashley takes the time to know you child's needs. She is great with kids with special needs as well.”
I have tutored (in math) and babysat children for almost 10 years. I babysat my own siblings and my neighbors' children as well. (I am CPR trained, have a car, and I love animals!)
“Kufre was punctual and friendly, my 2 girls had a fun time playing hide and seek with her and playing games with her. We will definitely be hiring her again.”
Every babysitter's profile is individually reviewed by UrbanSitter's Trust & Safety team after clearing an annual background check. Rely on reviews from local families to help you find your best fit.

"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."
Laura F., mom of two
