I have 20+ years in housekeeping and have great reputations with all the people I’ve worked with in the past. Every day I come in with a great attitude and wanting to make my clients day by attending to their housekeeping needs.

Hi! My name is Asia. I just moved back to San Diego from Boulder CO. Where I was working at a forest preschool! I have taken care of children of all ages. I am significantly older than my 3 siblings and helped raise them. I have experience and feel comfortable watching children of any age. I have no problem helping out with pets. I love arts & crafts, animals and being out in nature.

Hello! I am an experienced, fun loving babysitter. I have done various babysitting jobs over the past 8 years. I enjoy being with children and seeing them grow. I am responsible, creative and organized. I do have my own car for transportation if needed. I am a very outgoing fun person, kids do tend to love me. I can help out with anything that is needed with you or your kids!

With over 15 years of nanny experience and a current schedule packed with regular babysitting gigs, I’ve seen (and handled) it all — from newborn night feedings to juggling homework, dinner, and bedtime for multiple kids at once. I’m known for being calm under pressure, endlessly patient, and the kind of sitter kids adore and parents trust completely. I bring the perfect mix of fun and structure — think creative activities, outdoor adventures, and imaginative play, all balanced with homework help, healthy meals, and a smooth bedtime routine. Safety is always my top priority, but I’m not afraid to get silly, crawl around in a fort, or host a living-room dance party. Parents count on me because I’m reliable, resourceful, and unflappable — the babysitter who can fix a scraped knee, soothe a fussy toddler, and keep the older kids entertained, all while leaving your home cleaner than I found it.

Hi! My name is Diana, I currently work as an infant teacher at a preschool. Have been working here for 5 years, I love working with kids. I also have 2 fur babies that I love! I love going to spend time with them and going on walks to the beach. I also babysit on the weekends for families from the school whenever I can(:
“As a teacher at our daycare, Ms. Diana did a great job of caring for our baby boy. She led the arts and crafts activities and we always looked forward to our son bringing home a new creative art piece. She is communicative, responsive, and reliable. We look forward to having Diana babysit!”

"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."
