Hello! Thanks for visiting my profile. I have caregiving experience with ages 1-7 as well as coaching/teaching experience with elementary and middle school students. I currently am between jobs. Most recently I was a nanny and am available for occasional work in the San Diego County area for the next two weeks. I am kind, patient, and genuine with children. I study Montessori methods and my style is gentle yet firm. I enjoy being around kids of all ages as well as dogs and cats, and am comfortable caring for pets. I also enjoy tidying and organizing.
“Kids loved Marissa. They had lots of fun and asking when she can come back. She is super punctual and professional!”
Babysitter with over 23+ years of experience. Originally from Southern California, I graduated from USC in International Business. After living in NYC and SF, I’m excited to be back in San Diego 🌊🫶😃 I currently run my own CPG brand, but enjoy babysitting in my free time. Love, love kiddos and pets! :D
Hi! My name is Jasmine. I’ve been married for 24 years and am a proud mom of two daughters (ages 20 & 15). Born and raised in Carlsbad and now reside in Oceanside. For the past 10 years, I’ve cared for three wonderful boys who have since grown up, and over the years I’ve looked after children of all ages — from infants to teens. Along with childcare, I’ve also cared for my own parents, which gave me experience supporting seniors with kindness and patience. I’ve house-sat, puppy-sat, cleaned homes, and even helped host parties by serving food and tidying up. Families describe me as energetic, positive, and fun. I love playing games, being outdoors, and even heading to the ocean for some fresh air and adventure. Whether it’s caring for your little ones, your furry friends, or offering companionship to a senior, I’ll make sure everyone feels safe, happy, and cared for. I’d love to support your family however I can!
“Jasmine is absolutely wonderful. From the moment my daughter met her, my daughter connected with her instantly. She genuinely engages with our daughter and clearly cares about her well-being. She is kind, reliable, fun, and incredibly trustworthy. She's also communicative and punctual and an absolute pleasure to work with. I couldn't recommend her care more highly.”
LVN,. BLS CPR certified. I worked for Healthcare for 25 years, widower. My children are all grown up and married. I’ll be available MAY 8th - 17th all day.
Hi! I'm a mom of two elementary-aged kids with a degree in Human Development, with a focus in child development, and a background in social work. Along with my professional knowledge, I bring the real-life experience of raising neurodivergent children, which has taught me patience, flexibility, and the importance of redirection over discipline. I love creating a positive, playful environment where kids feel safe, encouraged, and free to be themselves, whether that's through outdoor adventures, crafts, or fun at home. I'm reliable, energetic, and able to manage multiple children at once, and I'm also happy to help with light cleaning, errands, and pets to support the whole family. With my flexible schedule and warm, hands-on approach, I'm passionate about helping children grow in confidence while giving parents peace of mind.
“Kelsey is the absolute best! We have used her 4-5 times now and will definitely be using her regularly going forward! She is so patient with our 4 month old and is always very interactive with him! We could not recommend her enough!”

"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
