Hello! My name is Molly, and I’m a current medical student at Stanford. I’m currently offering childcare & household services. I love to work with children and I babysat a lot as a high school & college student! As a medical student I am certified in Basic Life Support, and outside of school I’ve tried to cultivate many hobbies, including reading, exploring, crafting, cooking, and baking. I enjoy the chance to share those joys with children who are just beginning to know and love the world as I care for them. I can cook, clean, run errands, and I’m well-versed in education, as I tutored school-age children for many years alongside my own schooling, and would be happy to help wherever you need help! I am allergic to many pets, but as long as I’m informed prior to the day, I can manage well with antihistamines. Overall, I’m an enthusiastic individual who would be very happy to care for your children when you need!
I have been babysitting since I was a teenager. I also have a child myself. I am experienced in taking care of children in any age range. I have worked in ABA therapy and as a substitute teacher and para educator so I am also qualified to work with children with a range of disabilities. I am a psychology major and have a passion for helping others. I believe in a hands on approach when taking care of children and doing activities they enjoy to give them the best experience. I am allergic to animals so I unfortunately would not be able to help in home of pets.
Experience with dog sitting, and able to handle small and large breeds. Can cover anywhere from walk, dog park, basic training, medicine, feeding, and house sitting.
“He's taken care of our dog consistently with extreme level of care. highly recommend him to anyone.”
Hi I’m Roseanne but you can call me Rose. As a mother of grown children both out of the house, I truly miss the laughter, curiosity, and wonder along with memories that little ones bring into a home. Caring for babies and toddlers feels natural and meaningful to me — it’s a season of life I cherish deeply. I bring a warm, calm, attentive presence into the homes I work in. Safety, integrity, and emotional steadiness are very important to me. I believe children thrive in peaceful, predictable routines, and I’m happy to help create that — whether that means engaging play, reading time, gentle redirection, bedtime routines or simply being a steady presence during transitions. I’m also happy to support with light household tasks, pet care, and helping your home feel a little more manageable while you’re away. When I’m not caring for families, I enjoy spending time in nature, visiting museums, and being with friends and loved ones. I value balance, warmth, and meaningful connection — and I bring that same energy into the families I serve.
I have been babysitting regularly since middle school. I am CPR, First Aid, and Lifeguard certified. I’ve worked with various families with kids under one year old through elementary schoolers. I have two younger siblings as well, who I often watch and take care of. I have lots of experience with pets - I have two cats, who I am the primary caretaker for, and I have experience dog-sitting. In the summers I work as a sleep-away camp counselor. I am friendly, patient, and responsible. I can speak both English (native speaker) and Spanish (proficient).

"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."
Laura F., mom of two
