Hi my name is Hannah(Han-yuh). I am offering childcare, household services, and pet care. I have nanny experience with toddlers and babies. Babies were 5 months-9 months and the toddler was 2-4 year old. I also babysit have been babysitting ages 3-12 since I was around 12. While nannying I also did household chores like dishes, laundry, cleaning the floors, and making food for the children. I work as a surf instructor at a kids camp working with up to 28 kids ages 6-14 which allows me to have experience with many age ranges while working in a higher stress environment with children.
Looking for a part time or full time nanny/babysitter? I have a master's degree in child development, along with over 11 experience working with infants, toddlers, and children in a variety of settings. I love to share activities like stories, art, music, yoga, cooking, and other enriching activities. I also have a degree in music and can incorporate piano, guitar, ukulele, etc. :) I also have excellent references.

Hi! My name is Frida, and I have over five years of experience working with children in both preschool teacher and teaching assistant roles. I currently work as a preschool lead teacher, where I create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for young children while supporting their learning, daily routines, and emotional development. I have a lot of experience with infants and toddlers (4 months all the way to 24 months) but have also worked with kids of all ages as well! I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, highly organized, and believe in maintaining open communication with families. Whether it’s playing, reading, helping with routines, or providing a caring and positive environment, I always strive to make children feel safe, supported, and happy. I would love the opportunity to care for your family and provide dependable, compassionate childcare you can trust
I have experience working with children through volunteering and tennis camps, where I helped teach skills, supervise activities, and support a safe, fun environment. I’ve also volunteered with a non-profit organization supporting children through engagement and care. I have experience with pets through volunteering at animal shelters and from owning a dog. I enjoy caregiving because I like creating a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment for children and pets. I’m dependable, patient, and calm under pressure. In my free time, I enjoy staying active, especially through sports like tennis.

"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."
