Hi, I’m Ann! I work full-time as an interior designer, and am looking to help out families with date nights and occasional babysitting on evenings and weekends. I’ve been babysitting off and on for family and friends since I was teenager (newborns- age 9). I have various other experience working with children including volunteer ski coaching for kids age 4-7, being a first grade teaching assistant, and being an outdoor school camp counselor for middle schoolers. In my spare time I enjoy a mix of both active and creative hobbies, and when babysitting enjoy all sorts of kid's activities from park outings, games, arts & crafts, baking/cooking, or just watching a movie. I'm also a huge animal lover and grew up with dogs, cats, and horses. I currently have a sweet cat named Fig.
“Ann was great! Very kind & professional! ”
Hi families! I’m Zayne, a babysitter with over 5 years of hands-on experience with children from newborns to school-age, supporting their social and educational development. I love spending time with kids at parks, playgrounds, and craft spaces — creating structured, playful routines from arts & crafts to imaginative games. I observe each child’s behavior to find the best approach for them, always respecting their pace so they feel safe and comfortable. Currently available mostly on weekends and open to occasional dates. Feel free to reach out — whether it’s making your routine smoother or giving you a well-deserved date night!

"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."
