Hello, my name is Nivia! I am 20 years old and I offer babysitting and house sitting. I work part time as an assistant pre k teacher! I absolutely love working with kids and I am more than confident I can take care of your little ones. I work mostly with 2-4 year olds and I enjoy reading them stories or doing activities with them the most! I have a dog myself so I know basic dog care. I am comfortable feeding or giving medications. If you have any questions feel free to send a message.
Hi everyone! My name is Francesca and I’m currently a full time graduate student looking to work closer to my school with a more flexible schedule. I currently go to school for psychology in a dual masters program for MFT/LPC and forensic psychology. I also work with children 11-17 years old that struggle with their mental health that also have various medical conditions which helps provide me knowledge and experience when it comes to medical emergencies. Not only am I BLS certified, but both of my parents are also nurses so I’ve been around medical knowledge for a very long time. I love working with children of all ages and enjoy cleaning, cooking, and taking care of others. I have experience with kids of all ages from 3 months old to 17 years old. My babysitting experience started when I was 16 years old and began in the family. I took care of my baby cousins who were 8 months old and 6 years old. The 8 month old baby boy is also autistic which taught me so much patience and understanding at such a young age which I continued to grow and develop these skills. The most recent family I was a babysitter for moved to Texas a couple years ago but the children in my care were 18 months old and 4 years old. I was with the family for 3 years but within those years, it has taught me so much and brought so much joy into my life. Activities I enjoy doing are teaching children new skills, tutoring for school, and playing games with kids to keep their minds and bodies active. Working in my current job has also taught me many new arts and crafts skills that I enjoy teaching and sharing with others. When it comes to senior care, I only have experience through family. I have had close relatives who unfortunately became very sick and dependent of care takers and I was able to have the experience of taking care of them by helping transfer them from a wheelchair to the bed, adjusting their bed to ensure stability and comfort, how to keep them clean and fed, and to also keep their minds occupied and happy. I am naturally a caretaker and enjoy being able to care for all no matter the age. I am able to help cook, clean, run errands, and provide transportation. I have a great love for animals of all kind and would also enjoy/be comfortable working with them as well. I’ve had animals all of my life and currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats who I love spending my time with.
Hi! My name is Hazel, and I’ve always enjoyed working with kids and have hands-on experience from volunteering as a teacher’s aide at my church, where I helped care for and supervise kids ages 12 and under, including babies and toddlers. I’m currently working toward a degree in child psychology, which has given me a deeper understanding of child development and behavior. Along with childcare, I also have experience caring for dogs, so I’m comfortable in homes with pets and happy to help with pet care if needed. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy creating a safe, calm, and fun environment for kids. Along with a more relaxing and stress free environment for the parents.

"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."
