Hello, families! 😁 I’ve been taking care of little ones since many years ago. I was a preschool and elementary teacher so my experience is specially in ages 2-10+. Looking forward to connect with you.☀️
“Daniela was great with our daughter! They had fun in our home while we were out. She connected with my daughter quickly and they had fun games and drawings. I’d recommend her to my friends ”
Hi! I'm Samara, fully vaccinated, CPR and First-Aid Certified nanny. Experienced with infant sleep routines and sleep training methods. I have more than 10 years of experience working with kids of all ages. I also have 18 months experience with special needs. I love spending time with children supporting them to grow in a fun, safe, caring and stimulating environment. I'm very responsible, dedicated, patient and reliable. I always like to work as a team and have good communication with the parents, so we both can feel comfortable to talk about the children's development, their behavior and also about adjustments that we might need to do while we work together. I'm a safe driver who loves to drive, clean DL records and a reliable car that I can use in case the family needs it. Feel free to reach me out if you'd like to know more about me or my experience. I'll be happy to answer you.
“Sam is a fantastic caregiver! She occasionally cares for my 9 month old and 3 year old. She’s always on time, very sharp and professional, and genuinely engages with the kids. I appreciate that she asks great questions to ensure she’s following our routines and preferences. I always have peace of mind when she’s watching my kids. I highly recommend Sam!”
Hello I've been working with children and families for 15 years. I have a Master's of Education and an Associate's of Science in Early Childhood Education. I've worked with all ages from infants to college students. I am CPR & First Aid certified. I've been a tutor, teacher, sitter, aide, substitute.
“Andrew was attentive and engaging. Our little ones really enjoyed playing with him. Highly recommended!”
Hello! I come from a very, very large family from the Midwest. I am the second oldest of 16 grandkids so I was always the de facto babysitter. I love animals, especially my dog. I also love to read and go out into nature. I have a Bachelor’s of Science in Journalism from Ohio University and a Master’s of Arts in Communication from Arizona State University. I truly love school and learning! I would still be in school now learning something new if I could. I am willing to do whatever the kids want to do. Play in the backyard? Sure! Create a new art project for the parents? Or course! Go for a walk and look at nature? Sign me up!
“She was great with our kids!”

"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."
