Hi, I’m Emily! I have worked in childcare for about 10+ years, I have been a sitter/nanny, a counselor, a swim coach/instructor and a day care worker. I have a day job where I work for ESPN but I love to work with kids because it makes me happy! I can work with a wide range of ages and a wide range of kids!

Emily was great. My kids warmed up to her quickly. She was on time and asked great questions. She has great communication. I would definitely request her again.

Hi!. I am from the Palm Springs area, where most of my family lives. I am an auntie Becca to 10 great-nephews, and 4 nephews and 6 nieces, and numerous other kids that I have met through Urban Sitter. I grew up in a Hispanic household and have many years of hands-on experience even though I myself never had children. I am currently available Mon-Fri, 4-5 hours a day. Available for date nights.

Sweet, reliable, social and helpful.

Hi! My name is Jill and I recently graduated from university. I have 14 years of experience babysitting relatives and 6 years of professional experience. I worked exclusively with 1 family and their two kids during COVID. Once children were allowed back for in person school, I worked with three families (2-3 kids each) for a year, coordinating caretaking for the days that they all needed. Since then, I have babysat for many more families part-time and for one-off jobs because I enjoy the infectious energy and wonder that comes with working with children. My responsibilities have included making meals and snacks, pickup and dropoff (both walking and driving), homework help, playing at the park, exercise, bath time, bedtime routine, and more. I love helping kids grow and learn about themselves and the world around them. Some activities I enjoy doing with kids include arts n crafts, baking, cooking, painting, hiking, stretching and reading. I am here to make sure your kids have a fantastic school year! If you have any questions or concerns or would just like to further discuss about my relevant experience and references, send a message and I will gladly respond as soon as possible. Thank you!

Jill was really great our boys loved her and had lots of fun!

Hello everyone reading this! About me: I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old and absolutely love children! Whether it was for the neighbors next door, at the church nursery or for some of my high school teachers, I grew up watching kids! Although I'm more familiar with children from infancy to 6 years of age, I don't shy away from kids who are older. I am a very upbeat and outgoing person so I'm always getting down on the floor and playing with children and helping them expand their imagination! If you have any questions or want to know anything else about my experience, please don't hesitate to ask! :)

Kaci was wonderful! She arrived on time and was personable and professional. My kid had a hard time when we left but she stayed calm and sent a picture of him happily playing after we left. It’s intimidating hiring someone you’ve never met before to watch your beloved child. I’m happy to endorse Kaci for any caregiving responsibility and I look forward to working with her again! Thank yoj for everything, Kaci.

I love taking care of children and grew up babysitting my cousins and nieces. I've been a sitter for 4 years and mostly do occasional and part time sitting for various families. I have taught Sunday school to kids aged 3 - 10 for 5 years, for which I'm a mandatory reporter and trained in child CPR. My highest education is a master's degree in film and media production. Please feel free to reach out if you have a job in 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."
