Hello, my name is Kasey I am a 32 year school contractor, previously a full-time nanny for 2 toddler boys with special needs. I am looking for families who need date nights on weeknights or weekends. I can do care during school breaks as well. I have had experience with children, ages 0 to 20plus years, specializing in individuals with disabilities and special needs. I have taken a child development class and have assisted in creating an educational preschool curriculum. I am willing to cook meals, make bottles, change diapers and help with homework. I love fun activities and am not afraid to sing, dance, and be silly with the kids. I truly believe childcare and teaching are my callings which inspired me to pursue my degree. For my pet parents, I am also an animal lover and more than comfortable with families who own pets, in fact I have my own pet sitting business as well. I am CPR and first aid certified for infants, children, and adults plus pets.

Hi there! My name is Sabrina, I’m 19 years old, and I recently moved to San Diego from the Bay Area in March to later go to school. I currently intern at a law firm and work as a restaurant host, and I’m looking to explore new hobbies and opportunities in my free time I love creating a fun, positive, and comfortable environment where children can feel safe, happy, and free to be themselves. I’m happy to help with things like playing games, arts and crafts, preparing simple meals and snacks, bedtime routines, homework help, and keeping children entertained. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust, so I take being reliable, communicative, and punctual seriously. I also have reliable transportation, which allows me to get to and from jobs dependably and on time. My schedule can vary, but I keep my availability updated and am happy to discuss scheduling in advance. I’d love the opportunity to meet your family and help make your life a little easier!
Hi! My name is Sheena and I can assure you my qualifications, personality, and attention to detail will make the pay worth your while. My experience ranges from all over. It began when I started volunteering at my church with the childcare center! I knew I had a passion and decided to go to college for early childhood education. I finished my schooling in 2022 and wanted to explore a teaching career. I then worked in a preschool for almost a year and a half. I became CPR/First Aid certified there and still am! I had my own T-K classroom with 24 children and loved finding fun ways to lead them to learn. This included social studies, math, science, writing, language/literacy, dramatic play, as well as social and emotional in my daily goals. When attendance was low I would “float” to different classes and spend time with all ages, giving me experience with the entire school that was varying from ages 1-2, 2-3, and 3-4. The director of the school would love to give me a great reference. I have been told I have a calming presence yet spunky character so it works out great for children and I to bond! Additionally, I have a younger sister with extreme allergies and a mom with disabilities so I can understand special circumstances and will prioritize your needs and directions with the utmost respect. I want you to know that I was raised “treat others the way you want to be treated“. I will leave an area looking better than I found it, ask questions so I get things done right, and value your family and home as if it was my own.
“Sheena was wonderful with our two children!”
Hello, It is very nice to find you here. I began my childcare, elder care, and pet care services as a teenager, and I am now in my mid 50s. I love caring for others and making them feel supported. I have worked with children from infants through high school. As a teen, I was the neighborhood babysitter :-). After I finished college, I became a substitute teacher for grades K-12 and subsequently an elementary school teacher of 2nd grade. Kids are great little people! During my high school years, I was the neighborhood pet sitter. Currently I am able to go to the pet's home to make sure they are taken for walks and fed along with other needs. Dogs, cats, pet rabbits, and other furry creatures are little bundles of love. :-) My elder care experience began with my grandmother who developed Alzheimer's nearly 10 years ago. I took care of her daily living needs, cooking, errands, and social events. I have since had a number of elder care clients who need support in their living space. It gives me great pleasure to know I've made someone else's day better with my caring skills. Looking forward to chatting with you.
“Tanya has helped me run my household several times in a few different capacities over several decades. She was an excellent baby sitter for my son, and I also have trusted her with house and pet sitting. Tanya is reliable, honest and a real pleasure as a person. She is kind, compassionate and attuned. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”

"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."
