Hello ! ! ! Graduated from the University of Alabama in 2019. I work for a real estate tech start up during the week. I have always enjoyed babysitting and love picking up a babysitting gig here and there. It has always been a fun thing for me and a great way to meet families! I began my babysitting career in middle school and since then I have worked as a mothers help, date night sitter, summer break nanny, and weekend overnight sitter. For 3 years of high school I worked at a local yoga studio in childcare, and spent three summers as a camp counselor. I have a wide range of experience with all ages throughout the past 12+ years of working for a wide range of families!

Hello! Caring for children and babies is what I do best. As a natural empath and caregiver, I feel it's a skill that just kind of exists for me organically. I think children deserve to be seen and heard, and their feelings matter. I love to have fun and be silly, but am also very calm. I've had parents describe me as their child's "first friend" (let me grab a tissue), which I think is a lovely and fulfilling role to have.
“I chose “other” because my answer is “all of the above”! I’ve known Emily for many years and we’ve worked together, we’re friends, she’s helped me with my kids, all of it! She is amazing with kids and though we are not related, she will always be “Auntie” to my kids. She’s very gentle and kind, but knows when to tell kids no. She’s really patient and understanding with kids and the different emotions they go through. She is very neat and always on time and I would recommend her to any family who needed help with their child care needs!”

"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."
