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!
Hi! My name is Riley and I recently graduated from UC Davis with degrees in psychology and human development. I am excited to be offering childcare services to my community. I am an apprentice teacher in a daycare classroom at an NAEYC accredited early childhood education center. With over 21 ECE units and a first-aid/CPR certification, you can be confident that your child is in good hands. Outside of the classroom, I have experience providing private childcare to children from infancy through early adolescence. In addition to daily care tasks (toileting/diapering, feeding, cleaning, etc.), I am experienced in scaffolding thinking skills, social-emotional skills, and supporting healthy physical development. I love to sing songs, play outside, and explore the world from the child’s perspective. Working with children is the best part of my day! If you are looking for a caregiver who is responsive, tuned-in, and experienced, then you are in the right place. I look forward to working with your family!
Hi my name is Gabriela, I’m currently in school and in my third year at Sacramento State! I'm studying Communication Sciences and Disorders to hopefully become a Pediatric Speech Therapist/Audiologist. I have always loved working with kids! My mom has been a babysitter for 15+ years and I've gained everything I know from her as she is the best babysitter ever! I've worked in a couple places with kids such as helping with date nights, working consistently with families, and at the daycare at the Sac State Campus. There I would work with all different age groups such as 8-month-olds all the way to 4-year-olds. I would mostly spend my time in the classroom with the 8mo-2-year-olds and I loved it so much! I got to create engaging activities for the kids to expand their mental capabilities and I also free d them and changed their diapers. I am a very quick learner and am very open minded. My schedule is very flexible on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays at the moment due to school but I'd be willing to help any family in need of a babysitter!
I babysat sisters and nieces throughout the years. I’m good at my job and I love to care and help others. I have 4yrs experience in Senior Elderly Care. Also looked after their pets(cats) while on duty. I’m well educated and did HR/Finance work for the past 15 years.

"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
