Hi, my name is Stephanie! I have 6 years of experience working with children, including three years as a nanny, over two years in a daycare setting, and occasional babysitting throughout the years. I am in the process of completing my CPR certification, am fully vaccinated, and have a valid driver’s license. I can provide excellent references and a detailed resume upon request. I am passionate about providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children to learn and grow. Looking forward to connecting with you!
Hi, my name is Angie and I am currently looking for occasional, full time or part time work. I offer childcare, senior care and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, babies, toddlers and children since I was 17. My responsibilities include driving to and from school, crafts, tutoring and even lessons in another language if you prefer (Spanish). I also work as a home helper and can cook, clean and run errands. I have been an occasional pet sitter, I love animals and have been able to take care of them when their owners are away or take them for a walk around the neighborhood.
Hi, my name is Rose. I’m a trusted caregiver with a lifelong passion for supporting families. Over the past several years, I’ve provided care for children of all ages, including newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids (yes, even twins!). Beyond that, I’ve spent many years caring for the children of family and friends, so nurturing and supporting little ones has always been a natural part of my life. I enjoy engaging kids in creative activities, helping with homework, and ensuring they feel safe, supported, and cared for. Recently, I spent the past three years as the primary caregiver for my mother, which deepened my experience and compassion for senior care. I understand the importance of patience, dignity, and dependable support. I’m happy to assist with meal preparation, companionship, and day-to-day tasks. In addition to caregiving, I also offer household support, including doing laundry, light and deep cleaning, and running errands to help out. I’m known by family and friends as the one they call when they need help achieving a clean and organized space. I truly enjoy creating clean, tidy, and functional spaces. This stems from a childhood of supporting my father's janitorial service and owning my own home staging business. Looking forward to supporting you and your loved ones!
Hi families! My name is Lucianne, and I’ve been a Montessori teacher for the past 8 years. I currently work at a Montessori school, where I support children in learning with curiosity, independence, and kindness every day. I truly enjoy spending time with kids—whether that’s helping with homework, exploring creative activities, or simply having fun together. I know how important it is for parents to feel at ease, so I always bring patience, responsibility, and a caring attitude. My goal is to create a safe, positive, and engaging environment where your children feel happy and supported while you have peace of mind.

"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."
