Hyewon $24 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Hyewon, and I’m currently studying psychology at UC Davis. I’m passionate about child development and am pursuing a career as an adolescent psychologist, focusing on supporting individuals with developmental disabilities. I have 2 years of experience working with children ages 3–7 as an assistant teacher and 2 years of experience as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) providing ABA therapy to children with autism aged 4–12. I’m patient, creative, and love engaging children through play, art, reading, and hands-on learning activities. I can also help with homework, light meal prep, cleaning, pet care, and transportation to and from school or activities. I have a cat myself and absolutely love animals!
Jorgea $20 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Jorgea andI'm an 18 year old student in college. I currently work for an afterschool program where I provide a safe environment for children ages 4-12, as well as assist in homework, create fun crafts, and engage in fun, tech-free activities. I love getting to watch each kid grow and help in guiding them to find the type of person they'd like to be! I also grew up looking after younger siblings and cousins since I was 14. I would be happy to help in driving to and from places. I am allergic to cats but am happy to help with families with dogs.

"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."
