Hello, my name is Rana! I’m 24 years old and I recently graduated from pharmacy school. I hope to keep up with babysitting as I prepare for my board exams and navigate my main career. I have prior experience babysitting for kids ages 3-13. I love spending time with kids and I’m very extroverted, so I know how to keep them entertained! I’m dedicated to making sure they have a fun, safe, and healthy time. I can assist with their studies, arts/ crafts, cleaning, playtime, light cooking, and preparing for bedtime. I also have two 2 cats and prior cat-sitting experience as well. My schedule is flexible so I’m mostly available anytime throughout the week with prior notice. I’m also CPR certified, can administer injections/ help with giving medications if needed, and am mental health first aid certified as well!
Hi! My name is Ryan. I am 22 years old and I am currently an undergraduate student at Cal State Fullerton for my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I am offering child care and pet care! I am a Registered Behavioral Technician (RBT) with over two years of experience working with children with autism and other developmental disabilities. I use ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) therapy techniques to help kids build new skills, reach their goals, and improve daily behaviors in a clinic or home setting. This work has taught me patience, empathy, and how to adapt to each child’s unique personality and needs. Before becoming an RBT, I spent years as a competitive dancer since age 3 and later worked as an assistant dance teacher for children ages 4–12. I love bringing creativity, movement, and play into my time with kids to keep things fun and engaging. I grew up in Palm Springs but now live in Orange County, and I occasionally visit my hometown, so I’m open to jobs in both areas. I’m also happy to provide pet care! My family has a beagle, and I have hands-on experience with dog walking, feeding, and playtime (cats included!). I’m comfortable caring for large animals too. Outside of work, I love music, dancing, festivals, concerts, fashion, shopping, arts and crafts, reading, movies, and anything creative. I’d describe myself as outgoing and adventurous, with a genuine passion for helping others and learning new things.
Hi! I’m Mackenzie I’m a college student at cal state Fullerton. I’m offering babysitting and pet sitting services. I don’t have too much one on one experience taking care of children but I was a lifeguard for 2 summers at a waterpark working with children all day where I was also cpr and first aid trained. I’ve always been pretty good with kids taking care of younger family members and family friends. I do have experience taking care of pets though. I’m very friendly and I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m a good cook and I can drive although my daily car is pretty small. I can help with household chores and errands as needed. I could also help with homework and projects.
I began babysitting as a teenager and have cared for children of many different ages over the years. I’m also a mother of two grown children, so I have firsthand experience caring for children through every stage, from infancy to adulthood. I completed Early Childhood Education coursework and spent much of my professional career supporting children, mothers, and families as a Domestic Violence Counselor/Advocate and through a Riverside County family treatment program. I’m patient, dependable, safety-conscious, and committed to helping children feel comfortable, respected, and cared for. I enjoy reading, crafts, outdoor activities, and encouraging children to learn through play. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting opportunities and would love to provide a local family with warm, reliable, and compassionate care.
Hi! I’m Danielle, a mom of three with both personal and professional experience working with children of different ages, personalities, and needs. I have an Associate degree and have worked in a school setting as a Special Education Instructional Assistant. Both professionally and as a parent, I have experience supporting children with a variety of needs, including anxiety, ADHD, autism, and other developmental or behavioral differences. I understand that every child is different and may need a little extra patience, structure, encouragement, flexibility, or support with transitions. I also have training in Non-Violent Crisis Intervention. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and getting to know their individual personalities. I’m happy being active and playing outside, doing crafts or creative activities, playing games, helping with homework, or simply providing a calm and dependable presence. As a parent myself, I understand how important it is to have someone caring for your children who is responsible, communicative, patient, and respectful of your family’s routines. I’m primarily interested in flexible and occasional childcare, including date nights, evenings, weekends, and other short-term needs. I’m also open to discussing homework help, transportation, and other family support when it’s a good fit. I look forward to meeting some great local families!

"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."
