Hi! My name is Wenddy 💗 I’m a mom of two (my kids are now older), so I truly understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your children. Most of my childcare experience comes from raising my own kids and helping care for children within my family over the years. I really enjoy creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and cared for like family. I also have caregiving experience, including caring for my grandmother, who has since passed and is now in heaven 🤍 That time in my life deeply shaped my patience, compassion, and the way I care for others with kindness and respect. At this time, I’m only available for occasional babysitting. When I do care for children, I bring a warm, calm presence and always treat them with genuine care and attention. Families describe me as dependable, patient, and very caring. I take trust seriously and always show up with heart and responsibility. I’m bilingual (English & Spanish), have a Live Scan background check, clean driving record, reliable transportation, and I’m fully vaccinated. I would love the opportunity to support a family who needs occasional, trustworthy care 💗
“Enjoyed using Wenddy. I would use her again.”
Hello! My name is Julia, I am offering child care. My schedule is flexible and I am willing to start Asap. I am currently 20 years old and I attend San Diego state university. I have been an Employee at Bayclub Kidsworld since Nov of 2022. While working with the children I clean, change diapers, feed, play, and read books with them. I am also CPR/AED Certified. I am open to taking the children to the park, doing arts and crafts, helping with homework, and making meals.
Hi I’m Lauren! I am an engineer by trade, and a loving aunt by life! I’m currently here to help support my sister while she needs babysitting help. Thank you!
“Warm, friendly, and great with kids (and pets)!”
Hi! I’m Melody. I have 4+ years of experience working with children as an after school youth leader and I was a special education classroom aide for a year. I also have 10 years of experience sitting for household pets, I love animals. I hold a master’s degree in school counseling, so I am passionate about caring for children and families.
“Enthusiastic and caring! Felt very comfortable leaving my baby in Melody’s care.”
I am an outgoing college student and already have over five years of experience with caregiving for children of all ages! I have held two longterm caregiving jobs. The first was a combination of nannying three children (ages 2,7, and 12) and doing housework (laundry,dishes,orginization) a few times a week. The second was nannying for two children (ages 9 and 13) overnight into the next morning (packing lunch, cooking meals, driving kids to school) up to five times per week. Aside from that I have had various babysitting, housesitting, and pet sitting jobs as needed. I pride myself in creating a comfortable, safe, and positive environment for every family. I love to play games, do crafts, and talk to kids about whatever is on their mind. I love to have fun but I also know how to enforce rules and keep order in a household. I am willing and able to supervise swimming, run errands, do light housekeeping, and aid kids in their schoolwork if needed. I hope to make a positive impact in your family’s life!

"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
