A bit about me: I absolutely LOVE being a mother and watching my daughter grow 🌱.I enjoy cooking, traveling, teaching, advocating, and spending time with my family. Fun fact: I hold an MA in Special Education 🧩 As a caretaker and educator, I strive to create a safe, engaging, and positive experience for children by getting to know each child and their individual needs/ interests.

Hi! I'm the oldest of five kids in my family and absolutely love kids! I am currently in a master of occupational therapy program at the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences and hope to become a pediatric OT. I have worked for the past year as a registered behavior technician in an ABA therapy clinic with kids with autism in both clinic and school settings. I am CPR and First-Aid certified. I have 7 years of paid babysitting experience with children ages newborn to 13 years old. I have helped in my church’s nursery and disabilities ministry for 3 years and have coached club volleyball for kids ages elementary through high school for the past 4 years. In addition to nannying, I’m happy to cook, run errands, help out with homework, and provide transportation to school or extracurricular activities. I love to make up fun games, do crafts, and play outside with the kids I nanny! My friends would describe me as happy, kind, organized, and compassionate! I’m confident in caring for children of all ages and would love to help your family out however you need!

Hello, my name is Kasey I am a 32 year school contractor, previously a full-time nanny for 2 toddler boys with special needs. I am looking for families who need date nights on weeknights or weekends. I can do care during school breaks as well. I have had experience with children, ages 0 to 20plus years, specializing in individuals with disabilities and special needs. I have taken a child development class and have assisted in creating an educational preschool curriculum. I am willing to cook meals, make bottles, change diapers and help with homework. I love fun activities and am not afraid to sing, dance, and be silly with the kids. I truly believe childcare and teaching are my callings which inspired me to pursue my degree. For my pet parents, I am also an animal lover and more than comfortable with families who own pets, in fact I have my own pet sitting business as well. I am CPR and first aid certified for infants, children, and adults plus pets.
Hi there! My name is Sabrina, I’m 19 years old, and I recently moved to San Diego from the Bay Area in March to later go to school. I currently intern at a law firm and work as a restaurant host, and I’m looking to explore new hobbies and opportunities in my free time I love creating a fun, positive, and comfortable environment where children can feel safe, happy, and free to be themselves. I’m happy to help with things like playing games, arts and crafts, preparing simple meals and snacks, bedtime routines, homework help, and keeping children entertained. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust, so I take being reliable, communicative, and punctual seriously. I also have reliable transportation, which allows me to get to and from jobs dependably and on time. My schedule can vary, but I keep my availability updated and am happy to discuss scheduling in advance. I’d love the opportunity to meet your family and help make your life a little easier!

"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."
