Hi, I’m Jennifer! B.A. in Art, future teacher with 3+ yrs as a teacher’s assistant (TK–8). I love helping with homework, pets, and light house chores!
Hello! My name is Christine and I am 25 years old. I am a registered nurse and I occasionally babysit. I have six years of experience providing childcare for families with children ranging from 6 months to 15 years old. I’m known for being patient, calm, creative, and approachable. I truly enjoy engaging with kids through outdoor activities, board games, puzzles, and educational play. I’m also happy to assist with homework and light meal preparation. In addition to being CPR certified, I’m fluent in both English and Spanish. I’d love the opportunity to support your family! Feel free to message me on here. Hope to hear from you! Have a great day!
Hi! I’m a compassionate and experienced caregiver with a strong background in childcare, newborn support, and family care. I spent 3 years working as a preschool teacher, where I developed a love for creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments for children to learn and grow. In addition to teaching, I have over 5 years of nanny experience working closely with multiple families and supporting children through different stages of development. I am also a trained birth and postpartum doula as well as a newborn care specialist, which has allowed me to support families during some of the most important and vulnerable moments of their lives. My approach is calm, patient, attentive, and family-centered, with a focus on providing both emotional and practical support. Beyond childcare, I previously worked as a certified nurse’s assistant in senior living and rehabilitation centers, where I gained valuable hands-on caregiving experience and strengthened my ability to provide compassionate care to individuals of all ages. Outside of work, I’m a fur mom to two cats and recently said goodbye to my sweet senior dog who passed from old age.
I’m a caring, reliable, and energetic caregiver with experience supporting children of all ages—from newborns to teenagers. I’ve taken care of up to three toddlers at the same time for several days, and I’m very comfortable managing different personalities and needs at once. Coming from a large family full of little ones, I’ve spent years helping raise and care for children in all stages, which has given me patience, confidence, and a natural ability to connect with kids quickly. I have a sweet-hearted and positive nature, and I always make it a priority to create a warm, safe, and joyful environment. I love engaging with children through singing, reading, imaginative play, and outdoor activities that keep them active and entertained. I enjoy being hands-on, present, and involved—never just supervising from the sidelines. Whether it’s helping a toddler explore their creativity, keeping up with energetic kids, or offering calm support to a newborn, I adapt easily to what each child needs. I’m also comfortable helping with cooking and meal prep, and I’m happy to support families with simple household routines that make their day a little easier. One of my favorite parts of caregiving is teaching through fun moments, and I can introduce Spanish naturally into play, songs, and conversation so children learn in a way that feels exciting and easy. Families describe me as dependable, kind, flexible, and someone who truly cares. I bring a great blend of patience, playfulness, and responsibility, and I take pride in creating an environment where children feel valued, supported, and happy. I’m committed to showing up with a great attitude, treating every child as if they were my own family, and making sure parents feel confident and at ease while their little ones are with me. I am open to long-term arrangements with one family and would love to build a consistent relationship where I can support your child’s growth over time. My best availability is all day on weekends and after 4 PM on Wednesdays. I’d love the opportunity to bring my experience, positive energy, and big-hearted care to your family.
Hi, I’m Liz! I have 8+ years of full-time nanny experience, as well as babysitting. I fell in love with kids when I got my first babysitting job at 18. My favorite childcare experiences have been volunteering abroad teaching children English through theater and dance. With a BFA in theater, I am highly energetic, creative, and fun going. Past nanny responsibilities include meal prep, transportation, house management, overnight care, and more. I’d love to answer any questions you have to see if we’d be a good fit!

"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."
